| Research Abstract |
In this study, based on Benner, P.'s caring theory, we developed a caring model for patients with early diabetes and examined its validity.
1. Development of a caring approach model for diabetic patients
We performed meta-synthesis of eight studies. As a result, we developed “embodiment care for diabetic patients" as a nursing care process to obtain knowledge about the body, as a basis for intellectual and physical action, of patients. The main characteristics of the care process are “Clarify ambiguous experience", “Promotion of understanding of their own bodies", “Restoration of trust in their own bodies", and “Acquisition of a new lifestyle (coping methods)".
2. Development of an intervention protocol for “embodiment care for diabetic patients"
We developed an intervention protocol consisting of the caregiver's attitude, posture, and height from the floor, the distance between the caregiver and the patient, physical actions and hand gestures when asking questions and giving instructions, interaction with patients, and interpretation of responses from patients. Basic knowledge, equipment, and materials required for the care, as well as recording formats, were also included in the protocol. The intervention protocol was designed to “clarify ambiguous experience".
3. Validation of the care to “clarify ambiguous experience"
We provided five Type-2 early diabetic patients with the care to evaluate the efficacy. During the care process, the patients made remarks and took actions that demonstrate their concern for their bodies, indicating “how they live with their own bodies"-experience acquired through a long period of their lives. The care proved to clarify the experience of patients.
