Abstract
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of the 2030 Diabetes Camp program on depression, anxiety, and stress among diabetic patients. METHODS: This study enrolled diabetic patients who participated in the 16th 2030 Diabetes Camp program sponsored by the Korean Diabetes Association on January 18~19, 2014. Depression was measured using the Beck depression inventory scale. Anxiety was measured using Spielberger's state anxiety scale and stress was measured using the Problem Areas in Diabetes-Korea (PAID-K) scale. RESULTS: There was a total of 29 subjects, 13 male subjects (44.8%) and 16 female subjects (55.2%). The mean age was 29.9 ± 9.7 years. Twenty patients (69.0%) had type 1 diabetes mellitus, mean illness duration was 7.5 ± 6.5 years, and mean HbA1c was 8.3% ± 1.8%. Depression score was significantly reduced from 15.7 ± 10.3 before the camp program to 12.6 ± 10.5 after the camp program (P = 0.005). The degree of anxiety decreased significantly from 46.8 ± 10.9 before the start of the camp program to 37.8 ± 9.6 after the start of the camp program (P < 0.001). Stress level was also decreased significantly from 42.4 ± 15.9 points to 37.9 ± 15.5 points before and after the camp program, respectively (P = 0.023). CONCLUSION: The degree of depression was high in diabetic patients, and this diabetic camp program was effective in reducing depression, anxiety, and stress in diabetic patients.
