A Study on the Effect of Nurse-Patient Communication in the Nursing of Elderly Diabetic Patients and Its Impact on Improving Patients’ Condition
Objective: To analyze the effect of nurse-patient communication in the nursing care of elderly diabetic patients and its impact on improving patients’ condition. Methods: A total of 72 diabetic patients admitted to our hospital from August 2023 to August 2025 were enrolled and divided into two groups by random sampling. The control group received routine nursing, while the observation group was additionally given nurse-patient communication. The differences in blood glucose control, self-management ability and quality of life between the two groups were compared. Results: After nursing, the blood glucose levels (fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Compared with before nursing, the scores of T2-CSO and GQOLI-74 in both groups were increased after nursing, and the increase in the observation group was more significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Nurse-patient communication can effectively improve the condition of elderly diabetic patients, help strengthen blood glucose control, enhance self-management ability and improve quality of life.
