Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders with features of hyperglycemia that occur due to insulin abnormalities. Not a few diabetics are prone to neuropathy disorders where sensory disturbances are lost or reduce the sensation of the feet because of impaired blood flow to the feet. Acupressure therapy in DM patients can activate the nervous system and organs that have problems. The purpose of this study was to see the effect of acupressure therapy on foot sensitivity in diabetes mellitus patients. This study used a Quasi-Experimental design without any comparison group with a one group pretest-posttest design which was conducted from April 4 to April 14 2023. The sample in this study was 30 people taken by purposive sampling. Data were collected by direct examination using a monofilament test with acupressure intervention therapy every 3 times a week for 2 weeks. The data were processed and then analyzed univariately and bivariately using the dependent t test. The results of this study indicate that the average before the intervention of acupressure therapy on foot sensitivity in diabetic patients was 3.87. After the intervention of acupressure therapy, the average sensitivity of the feet of diabetic patients was 8.43. From the dependent t test, it was found that 32.14 > 1,699 (t count > t table). There was an effect of acupressure therapy on the sensitivity of the feet of diabetic patients in Kampung Jawa Village, working area of ​​the Tanjung Paku Community Health Center, Solok City. Researchers should suggest that in an effort to reduce the occurrence of more severe complications with foot sensitivity problems, acupressure therapy can be carried out as a non-pharmacological therapy
