Self-efficacy: A tool for people with diabetes managed by continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion
نویسندگان
چکیده
Article points 1. Self-efficacy is a person’s belief in his or her capabilities, which influences outcomes; the intensity of an individual’s self-efficacy will play a major role in how any goals, tasks and challenges are approached. 2. A tool was developed to measure self-efficacy in individuals with diabetes managed by continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion; scores can be analysed and used to tailor management. 3. The test cohort reported that the self-efficacy scale was quick and easy to understand; the authors found their tool to be effective at identifying individuals’ strengths and limitations.

Comparing Effects of Continuous Insulin Infusion with or without Subcutaneous Glargine Insulin on Glycemic Control in Diabetic Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)
OBJECTIVE: Hyperglycemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients following coronary artery bypass grafting. Tight glycemic control in perioperative period can reduce these events. The goal of this study was to determine whether combination of continuous infusion and subcutaneous glargine as a basal insulin could improve glycemic control. MATERIAL AND METHODS:...

Pancreatogenic diabetes is characterised by recurrent severe hypoglycaemia due to changes in both endocrine and exocrine functions. There are no guidelines to manage these individuals. Herein, we describe the post-operative management of two people who developed pancreatogenic diabetes following total pancreatectomy for neuroendocrine malignancy. In both individuals, diabetes was managed using ...
