Filter by:Background: The relationship between the appearance of insulin resistance phenomena and insufficient or poor-quality sleep is scientifically documented. Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of an intervention based on behavioural techniques on sleep in the nursing consultation in the Primary Care setting to improve the level of HbA1c in patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus 2 (DM2) or prediabetes. Hypothesis: Patients diagnosed with DM2 or prediabetes with poor sleep quality would improve their HbA1c levels after an intervention on healthier sleep hygiene practices. Sleeping 6 or less hours in adults diagnosed with DM2 or prediabetes would be related to worse metabolic control results. Patients diagnosed with DM2 or prediabetes who would value their sleep as poor quality would have poorer metabolic control. Methodology: Design: Not masked randomized clinical trial. Target population: Patients diagnosed up to the time of DM2 (E11) or prediabetes (R73, R73.9) with age over 18 attending the chronic nurses' follow-up visits of the Basic Health Area of Balaguer in the time range from November 2017 to December 2018. Determinations: Dependent variables: Glycemia and HbA1c. Independent variables: Sex, age, value of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), declared hours of sleep, sleep efficiency, body mass index (BMI), pharmacologic antidiabetic treatment, changes in it, changes in diet, physical exercise and sleep hygiene. Statistical analysis: Analysis of the comparability of the groups and calculation of the confidence interval of the difference in the glycaemic values and HbA1c at the end of the follow-up, with respect to the initiation within the intervention group and within the control, and control group with respect to the group intervention.
