Effect of Self-Acupressure on Peripheral Neuropathic Pain and HbA1c
Effect of Self-Acupressure Application on Peripheral Neuropathic Pain and HbA1c in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)
Aim: This study was conducted to examine the effect of self-applied acupressure on HbA1c and peripheral neuropathic pain in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Background: Acupressure is an effective method for relieving pain, and this effectiveness is explained by the gate control theory and endorphin theory. There is only one study in the literature showing that acupressure reduces diabetic neuropathic pain. However, in this study, acupressure was performed by a trained health professional, not by the patient himself. Measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level is one of the standard methods for long-term management of diabetes and indicates the average blood glucose concentration over a three-month period. As a result of a meta-analysis study conducted in 2023, it was reported that acupressure significantly reduced the HbA1c level. Design: This study was designed as a randomized controlled and experimental type study. Methods: The study is conducted with patients with type 2 diabetes who are followed in the diabetes outpatient clinic of a training and research hospital between May-November 2024. There are 2 arms in the study. The study is conducted with a total of 60 patients, 30 in the control group and 30 in the intervention group. Data collection tools are "Patient Information Form", "Neuropathic Pain Questionnaire - DN4", "Neuropathic Pain Questionnaire - Short Form" and "Self-Acupressure - Satisfaction Evaluation Form with Visual Analogue Scale". While patients in the control group continue to receive routine care, patients in the intervention group are given self-acupressure training. Patients who receive training perform acupressure on their own 3 days a week for 3 months and record it on the follow-up form.
