The EFFECT OF ERGONOMIC EXERCISE ON CHANGES IN BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS IN DIABETES MELLITUS PATIENTS IN THE IN PATIENT ROOM OF DR. ABDUL RIVAI BERAU DISTRICT

Abstract

Abstract: : Physical activity utilizes and processes the body's calories in metabolism can help lower blood sugar levels. Ergonomic gymnastics is a well-tolerated physical activity in diabetes mellitus patients. Ergonomic exercise contributes to the utilization of body calories through physical activity to control blood sugar levels in the body. This study aims to determine the effect of ergonomic exercise on changes in blood sugar levels of Diabetes Mellitus patients in the Inpatient Room of RSUD dr. Abdul Rivai Berau District. This research is a type of correlational quantitative research by designquasy-experimentwith approachpre-post-test without control group design. 20 research samples were taken randomlyquota sampling in the inpatient room of dr. Abdul Rivai Berau District. Data analysis is done byIndependent t-test with a significance level of 0.05. Research results found sufferer Diabetes Mellitus at dr. Abdul Rivai was dominated by men (60.0%), aged 35 to 45 years (100.0%), and graduated from high school (50.0). The patient's blood sugar level before the intervention averaged 347.00 mg/dL (st. Dev = 44.73) and after the intervention averaged 271.00 mg/dL (st. Dev = 59.46). There is a significant effect of ergonomic exercise on changes in blood sugar levels in diabetic patients (sig 0.001; correlation coefficient 0.896) so that ergonomic exercise interventions can make a very strong contribution to changes in blood sugar levels in patients with diabetes mellitus in the inpatient room of RSUD dr.
