This study examined the effects of an Experience Sharing Self-management Program (ESSP) on physiological indexes, knowledge, and self-management implementation among hypertension and diabetes patients in a primary public health center in G city. A quasi-experimental research was conducted with a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The experimental group (n=30) participated in a 12-week ESSP, and the control group (n=25) received only general services of a primary public health center between May 1 and October 31 in 2018. Data were analyzed with x2 test (Fisher's exact test), Mann-Whitney test, and Ranked ANCOVA using SPSS/WIN 22.0 program. The results showed significant differences in systolic blood pressure (F=14.56, p<.001), diastolic blood pressure (F=7.05, p=.012), knowledge (F=14.30, p=.001), self-management implementation (F=29.73, p<.001) of hypertension patients, knowledge (F=7.92, p=.010), and self-management implementation (F=4.54, p=.044) of diabetes patients between the two groups. Therefore, the ESSP was effective for reducing the blood pressure of hypertension patients and improving the knowledge and self-management implementation among hypertension and diabetes patients in a primary public health center.

This study is the quasi-experimental research of nonequivalent groups and is designed to investigate the effects of an aquatic exercise program with diabetes self management education on the self care efficacy, self care behaviors in diabetic patients in community. The subjects of this study were 26 patients in the experimental group who participated in the aquatic exercise program and 25 patients in the control group who did not paricipated in. And they were registered at the W Health Clinic in D city. The aquatic exercise program was conducted twice a week for 80 minutes, and consisted of a 30 minutes diabetes self management education and a 50 minutes aquatic exercise. After this program, there were significant differences in FBS(p=.047), HbA1c(p<.001), diabetes self efficacy(p<.001), and self care behaviors(p<.001). In order to reduce the prevalence of diabetes and prevent complications in the community, it is believed that the constant operation of aquatic exercise programs including self management education is necessary.

치면세균막관리는 치주병과 치아우식증을 예방하는 데 필수적이다. 이러한 치면세균막관리는 자가관리와 전문가관리로 구분할 수 있는데, 이 두가지를 병행하였을 때 특히 건강한 치주를 유지하는데 도움을 준다. 자가관리는 1회성 교육으로는 불충분하며 체계적인 반복교육이 필요하다. 전문가관리는 대상자의 구강상태에 따라 일정한 주기로 계속 시행되어야 하며 $3{\sim}6$개월 주기가 바람직하다. 반복교육과 계속관리과정으로 진행되는 자가 및 전문가 치면세균막 관리 중에 대상자의 구강병 위험요소에 따라 불소도포와 치면열구 전색 등이 제공될 수 있다.

This study identifies the moderating effects of cognition on the relationship between self-care confidence and self-care behavior in the diabetic elderly. The participants were 205 elderly subjects with diabetes, who visited a citizen health center located in D city, Korea. Data were collected from 20th April to 31st August 2015, and were analyzed by t-test and multiple regression. Our results reveal no significant differences between the depressive and non-depressive groups, when considering diabetes self-management confidence, knowledge, behavior and cognitive function. Cognitive function had a moderating effect in the relationship between self-care confidence and self-care behavior only in the depressed group. Our results indicate that it is therefore necessary to apply individual nursing intervention based on cognitive function and depression level, and to develop various programs for improving the cognitive function and depression amongst the diabetic elderly.

This study is a quasi experimental study to investigate the effects of stroke prevention education program of Oriental Nursing on self-health perception, health behavior change, self-care and physiological index of adults over 55 years old and elderly people. The data were collected from August 12 to November 29, 2017. The 53 study subjects comprised 26 experimental subjects who agreed to participate in the education program and 27 control subjects. In the results, there was no statistically significant difference between the experimental group and the control group in general characteristics and research variables before the program; further, the two groups were homogenous. In the hypothesis test, the change in self-health perceptions of the experimental and control groups was t = -5.28 (p <.001), health behavior change was t = -4.24 (p <.001), self-care was t = -5.28 (p <.05), systolic blood pressure was t = 2.48 (p <.05), diastolic blood pressure was t = 2.78 (p <.05), and cholesterol was t = -3.94 (p <.001). There were statistically significant differences between the two groups and all four hypotheses were supported, which demonstrated the effectiveness of the program. These study results suggest that it is an effective program to change the self-perception of health and health behavior, improve self-care ability, and control the physiological index. It is expected that these findings will be useful in developing a future effective oriental nursing intervention. The education program should be continuously carried out, and the area needs to be expanded.
