Application Effect of Patient-centered Health Education in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Accompanied by Hyperlipidemia.

Objective:This study aims to investigate the impact of patient-centered health education on individuals with type 2 diabetes coexisting with hyperlipidemia. Methods:A cohort of 80 patients with type 2 diabetes and hyperlipidemia attending our hospital from February 2022 to August 2022 were randomly assigned to either the health education group or the control group. While the control group received routine health education, the health education group received additional patient-centered health education. Subsequently, we compared blood glucose and lipid levels, negative emotions, quality of life, and the incidence of unhealthy eating or overweight between the two groups post-education. Results:Following the health education intervention, the health education group exhibited superior improvements in blood glucose and lipid levels compared to the control group. Moreover, there was a significant decrease in SAS and SDS scores and a notable increase in quality of life compared to the control group. The health education group also demonstrated a lower incidence of unhealthy eating or overweight. Conclusions:Patient-centered health education for individuals with type 2 diabetes and hyperlipidemia proves effective in enhancing glucose and lipid metabolism, mitigating negative emotions, improving quality of life, and reducing unhealthy habits.
