Description

The aim of this qualitative factor-searching study is to elucidate perceptions of exercise and mechanisms that are involved in its continuation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Using a grounded theory approach, eleven patients, who were hospitalized primarily to improve glycemic control or for diabetic education, participated in the study, with interviews conducted four times over a period of six months.<br> From the collected data, a development process mechanism was found in the continuation of therapeutic exercise in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. –The core category, a key requirement in the development process was the perception that therapeutic exercise was not recreational exercise. –en, through the interpretation and reflection of their own medical treatment patients developed their acceptance of the need for therapeutic exercise and their understanding of the effects of therapeutic exercise through their own body. These results suggest that it is important to support the perception that therapeutic exercise is not recreational exercise from an early stage for the continuance of therapeutic exercise.
