| dc.description.abstract | Diabetic ulcer patients feel insecure about the situation because there are
wounds that are uncomfortable to see and smell bad, causing body image
disturbance. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of the
degree of ulcers with body image in diabetic ulcer patients. The design of this
research is correlation analytic with cross sectional approach. The study
population was all diabetic ulcer patients at Sakinah Mojokerto General
Hospital. The population of the second week of May to the second week of
June 2020 was 59 people. The sampling technique used consecutive sampling,
the number of samples 33 people. The instrument uses an observation sheet
based on Wagner's degree to assess the degree of ulcer and MBSRQ
questionnaire. The results of this study showed that almost half of respondents
had experienced grade 1 and 2 ulcers namely 11 people (33.3%), the majority
of respondents had a bad body image, which was 19 people (57.6%).
Spearman Rho Test analysis results obtained pvalue of 0,000 less than α
(0.05) and coefficient correlation value of 0.816 so that H1 is accepted, which
means there is a strong relationship between the degree of ulcers with body
image in diabetic ulcer patients in Sakinah Hospital Polytechnic at Mojokerto
Regency. Diabetic ulcers can affect body image, because the shape of the feet
and the odor generated, the greater the degree of ulcer, the greater the
possibility of disability, causing loss of bodily function, decreased activity
tolerance resulting in disruption. | en_US |
