NURSING INTERVENTIONS TO ENHANCE MEDICATION ADHERENCE IN SURGICAL DIABETES PATIENTS

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a serious disease during the presence of certain conditions such as the operation setting because it requires a multi-faceted perioperative care approach to minimize potential risk of complications and maximize favorable outcomes. This research analysis hinges on nursing interventions to be used in the promotion of medication adherence attempts among diabetes patients after surgical operations. Prescription drugs closely correlate with maintaining the GP and optimal aftercare, but patients would, sometimes try to make them work with them, which can make them do complex dosages and also is time and financial constraints. The methodology is mixed type, incorporating different quantitative instruments for self-reporting and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level assessment. Qualitative methods, such as interviews and focus group discussions, will also be applied. Patients undergoing diabetes-related surgeries are the subjects from a hospital in Gujarat, India, with each interview totaling to 50 individuals as the sample size. The article examines the effect of nurse-directed initiatives with connection to patient education, medication management support, behavior-related programs, and technology-aided approaches as the point of evaluation. A review of the results shows that there is clear evidence of higher MARS scores and a reduction in HbA1c levels both of which are clear indicants for improvement in medication adherence and control of glycemia after the intervention. The numerical analysis shows that there is an important spacer between adherence behavior and glycemic regulation scores, which is the consequence of the impact of nursing interventions on patients' outcomes. The nurse's cognitive and perceptual bed formation is now important in medical treatment to enhance medication compliance and surgical care optimization for individuals with diabetes undergoing surgery.
