PG  - e105
LID - 10.1097/jnr.0000000000000379 [doi]
AB  - BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a major global threat to public health. Reducing 
      the daily obstacles of coping with the disease for patients with diabetes may 
      improve management. PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate daily 
      obstacles to coping with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and related factors. 
      METHODS: A descriptive and cross-sectional design was used. Data were collected 
      from 186 patients with T2DM who were hospitalized in an endocrinology clinic in 
      Turkey. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the Diabetes Obstacles 
      Questionnaire were used to collect data. Multiple linear regression analysis was 
      performed to explore the predictors of obstacles to coping in patients with T2DM. 
      RESULTS: The highest mean score was achieved on the obstacles to coping with 
      diabetes (2.57 +/- 3.78) among the subscales of the Diabetes Obstacles 
      Questionnaire. After regression analysis, level of treatment compliance was 
      identified as the most significant predictor (beta = .289, p < .001). Anxiety, 
      depression, smoking status, and highest level of education were also identified 
      as significant predictors. CONCLUSIONS: On the basis of these results, nurses 
      should plan and implement interventions to improve treatment compliance and 
      assist patients to overcome obstacles to disease management. Moreover, patient 
      anxiety, depression, and lifestyle behaviors should be addressed.
