Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Controle glicêmico e automonitorização da glicemia capilar: uma cartilha regionalizada para o paciente diabético(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-02-04) CAVALCANTE, Regina do Socorro Oliveira Pinheiro; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0014255351015569; FELÍCIO, Karem Miléo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5289063715182942Diabetes mellitus is today a health problem worldwide, bringing serious micro and macrovascular complications when not properly treated; it is considered a difficult disease to control because its treatment requires changes in several aspects of the individual's life. Treatment consists of trying to maintain glycemic control, that is, maintaining blood glucose levels in the body in acceptable proportions; it requires discipline so that the medications are used correctly; changes in eating habits, maintaining a healthy diet, following an individual eating plan prescribed by a competent professional, and abandoning physical inactivity with the performance of regular physical activities. Glycemic control can be performed through periodic blood tests such as fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, and also through selfmonitoring, where the patient himself works by assessing his blood glucose levels daily and adjusting insulin amounts as instructed by his doctor. The self-monitoring techniques and parameters are passed on to the patient through Health Education, by the team responsible for their monitoring. Observing the importance of the diabetic patient maintaining glycemic control, aiming to prevent complications of the disease, we sought to carry out this study, which has as main objective, the production of a regionalized booklet for the patient containing the main guidelines on glycemic control and self-monitoring of capillary blood glucose, with easy-tounderstand language and illustrations that help them understand; the information was obtained through a literature review. It is intended to implement the booklet in primary health care, in Belém-PA, first with instructions on the subject to the health team that is working, so that the booklet is passed on to the user with appropriate information and clarifications.
