Abstract
Objective: To explore the application effect of self-management based on Snyder’s hope theory in diabetic patients. Methods: A total of 260 patients with diabetes from a community were selected through convenient sampling and randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group using the random number table method, with 130 cases in each group. Five cases were lost in the experimental group, resulting in 125 effective cases, while all 130 cases in the control group were effective. The control group received standard lectures on diabetes self-management behavior and traditional approaches, such as the distribution of educational manuals. The experimental group underwent a self-management behavior intervention program for diabetic patients based on Snyder’s hope theory model, encompassing three components: goals, pathways, and motivational thinking. The levels of hope and self-management behavior were compared between the two groups. Results: After the intervention, the scores for hope levels and self-management behaviors in both groups were significantly higher than those recorded before the intervention (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the hope level and self-management behavior scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The application of Snyder’s hope theory model in diabetic patients demonstrates significant benefits, improving patients’ hope levels and, consequently, enhancing their self-management behaviors.
