ABSTRACT
Objectives: To evaluate the deterioration of family health-competence with time of evolution of patients with type 2 diabetics. To compare the degree of family health-competence among families of patients with diabetes and subjects without diabetes, and the difference between controlled and non-controlled patients.
Patient and Methods: To design the study: In the first phase, cross-sectional descriptive and second phase, cross-sectional comparative. Population: 622 patients with type 2 diabetic. For comparative analysis, the sample was 114 diabetics and 114 non-diabetics. The instrument of self-report of the Beaver Family Health-Competence was applied. Patients were classified by categories to calculate glucose and the qualification of family health competence as well as their indicators. The fol-lowing statistical analyses were made: association among universal variables and characteristics by χ
2 for N samples.
Results: The mean years of diabetes diagnosis was nine years. Mean of glycemia was of 166.77 mg/dL, 125 non-controlled and 376 controlled. The mean of health-competence was of 2.18. The optimal families were 0.2 %, adequate 53.7 %, midrange 34.2 %, borderline 9.6 % and severely dysfunctional, 2.3 %. The healthy families were 88.1 % and pathologic, 11.9 %. With comparison of family health competence among the group of diabetics and the group control the difference is p ‹ 0.05. Comparison of groups for times of diagnosis of diabetes type 2 was not significant. The difference in family health-competence between controlled patients and not controlled patients was significant because in controlled patients it was better.
Conclusions: Families of patients with diabetes type 2 are affected in their family health-competence; therefore, it is necessary to involve and to guide the manner of controlling it family regarding the relation-ship of the illness and the entire.
