Diabetes disease is characterized by multiple organ involvement and multiple system damage. With the significant increase in the number of diabetes patients, diabetes has become a public problem. Because of the long duration of diabetes and easy to produce all kinds of complications, Thus affecting the quality of life of patients. Therefore, it is very important to use a scientific way to provide nursing management for patients in the rehabilitation period.In addition, diabetes itself is a chronic disease, to evaluate the state of patients and take effective measures is the focus of nursing intervention. The advantage of health management for patients with diabetes lies in the determination of the goal of care for patients with diabetes. According to the daily behavior of patients during recovery, the health management of blood glucose, diet and other aspects can delay the further development of the disease. Due to poor glycemic control in diabetic patients, leads to a series of complications, seriously reduce the patient's quality of life, so with the emergence of social medical model and the direction of development of diabetes care, not only limited to maintain normal blood glucose levels and prolong life, pay more attention to the prevention and control the occurrence of complications and development, to ensure a good life, This is also the meaning and function of health management. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of nursing management on health management during diabetes recovery, so as to make up for the lack of application progress. Methods A total of 48 patients with type ⅱ diabetes admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to June 2022 were randomly divided into observation group and control group according to the numerical random method, with 24 cases in each group. The control group was given routine nursing measures, while the observation group was given targeted health management intervention by a special diabetes care team on the premise of routine nursing measures. After nursing, the blood glucose standard and the improvement of quality of life were compared between the two groups. Results Fasting blood glucose and 2h postprandial blood glucose in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). In terms of quality of life, the scores of physiological function, psychological function and social function in the observation group were also significantly higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). In terms of nursing satisfaction, the observation group was significantly higher than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). It can be seen that health management can help patients stabilize blood glucose, improve self-management ability, promote patients' satisfaction, so as to achieve the final application value. It can also play a stabilizing role in similar chronic care processes.
