Abstract

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia due to insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion. Physical activity, such as foot exercises, is known to play a role in lowering blood glucose levels. Objective: To determine the effect of diabetic foot exercises on changes in blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 DM in the Gunung Lingkas Community Health Center (Puskesmas) in Tarakan City. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test approach. A sample of 18 respondents was selected using a purposive sampling technique. The intervention, in the form of diabetic foot exercises, was carried out in a structured manner with a duration of 20–30 minutes per session, given three times per week for four weeks. The foot exercises were guided by the researcher following standard movement procedures including warm-up, core movements, and cool-down. Random blood glucose levels were measured using a glucometer before the intervention (pre-test) and after the intervention (post-test) to determine the effectiveness of the exercise. Results: The average blood glucose level before the foot exercise was 216,57 mg/dl, and after the intervention it became 183,92 mg/dl, with an average decrease of 32,65 mg/dl. Statistical testing showed a p-value of 0,001 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant effect. Conclusion: Diabetic foot exercises significantly reduce blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes and can be implemented as a non-pharmacological intervention at the primary care level.
