Abstract:
The aim of this study is to explore the efficacy of the 3C therapeutic regimen for type 1 diabetes. Thirty-nine patients with type 1 diabetes, who were hospitalized from January 2013 to April 2014, were included to receive 3C therapeutic regimen. Evidence-based nursing was performed in the treatment period and the efficacy was observed 6 days after therapy. Six days after the administration of the 3C therapeutic regimen, the fasting glucose levels in all 39 patients were controlled to be 4.4-6.0 mmol/L and 2h-postprandial glucose levels to be 4.4-7.8 mmol/L. Three patients had a glucose level <3.9 mmol/L, which was corrected after adjusting the dose of insulin infusion. Evidence-based nursing was provided in the treatment period and no nursing-associated complication occurred. All patients were satisfied with the nursing service. The efficacy of the 3C therapeutic regimen for type 1 diabetes is satisfactory. The evidence-based nursing can help to ensure the efficacy and improve the quality of nursing service.
