Abstract

The analysis in hopelessness intervention is later found to be related to the progress in physical problems, such as unstable blood glucose level and impaired skin integrity. Results: Hopelessness in the client with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus may occur as a result of lifestyle changes, chronic illness status, and medication therapy. The hopelessness can affect the blood glucose level and the duration of wound healing. Therefore, type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with hopelessness problems may require an extended hospital stay with intensive nursing care included. Conclusion: The present study found that the psychosocial problems of hopelessness may induce unstable blood glucose levels and impaired skin integrity problems as a result of complications of type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
