METHODS: In this longitudinal retrospective study, 97 subjects at four health institutions in a Brazilian city were followed during 37 months between 2005 and 2008. The health files were analyzed of patients selected to register the evolution of variables related to capillary glucose self-monitoring at home and metabolic control of diabetes mellitus. RESULTS: During the assessment, both mean and monthly percentages of capillary blood glucose measurements at home decreased from 34.1 (65.1%) to 33.6 (64.8%), respectively (p <0.001). Mean HbA1c levels dropped from 9.20% to 7.94% (p<0.001). HDL cholesterol decreased from 51 mg/dl to 47 mg/dl (p=0.001). CONCLUSION: Patients' metabolic control improved, characterized by a significant reduction in HbA1C. 2012 artículo científico 0103-2100 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=307023885021 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3070 Acta Paulista de Enfermagem application/pdf Universidade Federal de São Paulo Acta Paulista de Enfermagem (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.25 |
