Abstract:
Background: When we discuss diabetes melitus we mean an endocrine disorder related to the damage of the insuline production or its quality. The high level of sugar in the blood leads to a variety of complications in the body systems as the occular, nervous and circulatory systems. The most important factors for the type II diabetes are genetic factors or belonging to a risk group for example adiposity.
Age is a very important factor for the prevalence of type II diabetes, as is the gender, socio economic status, origine, life style, physical activity and overweight (Preuss, C. 2006). Nutrition plays an important role in the treatment of diabetes. Most of the diabetic patients are symptomless and are discovered during a screening testing (Huebel, H. 2012). The american diabetes society ADA recomends that people in general should excercise at least 150 minutes a day (Heijden et al 2012).
What is training and its purpose?
Training is a systematic process with oriented goals, where participants get the necessary knowledge for the disease and its treatment in order to act in a certain life style to avoid the negative effects of the old style of living.
General objective: to know the treatment of diabetic patient in Germany and the training done with these patients supported from health care system.
Specific objective: To implement this kind of training on diabetic patients in Albania
Materials and method: We used the contemporary literature for the theoretical material; the real training with the patients and the measurement of the training effectivity according to the gathered data (patient’s weight, blood pressure, Hbc A1)
Conclussions: It is expected a significant change between the patients that followed the training and the control group which did not follow the training.
