摘要

為評估糖尿病育樂營在國人糖尿病病童的衛教功效，本院在1988年4月16至17日舉辦了臺灣地區首次的糖尿病育樂營。參加的病童共有17人。年齡為8.5-13.3歲。罹病史為0.05-5.3年。在育樂營前後，工作人員實地觀察病童自我照顧的能力，並給予評分。育樂營後，學童們在「血糖測定、胰島素抽取、胰島素注射、與食物選擇和估量」方面都有顯著的進步，其P值都分別小淤0.05、0.01、0.01、與0.01。顯示糖尿病育樂營對糖尿病病童是一項有效的衛教方法，短期的育樂營也有寓教於樂的效果，值得推廣。

A Diabetes camp provides children with fun and educational experience. Seventeen diabetic school children (12 boys and 5 girls) participated in a short-term diabetes camp from April 16 to 17, 1988. Their ages ranged from 8.5 to 13.2 years with an average of 11.3±1.5 (mean ± SD) years. The duration of their diabetes varied from 0.05 to 5.3 years with an average of 2.7±3.3 years. The camp staff consisted of a pediatric endocrinologist, 3 nurses, 4 dietitians, 3 social workers, 4 assistant diabetes educators, and 2 counselors who were specialized in music and recreational activities. The children's abilities in managing their diabetes were assessed by using a scoring system before and after the camping. Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank tests with significance levels set at p＜0.05 (two-tailed) were conducted to determine whether there were any significant changes in the results from pre- and postcamp assessments. The children showed significant improvement in using glucose-monitoring devices, drawing insulin, injecting insulin, and choosing the right exchange of food with the p values of less than 0.05, 0.01, 0.01, and 0.01 respectively. We concluded that this short-term diabetes camp was educational for school children with diabetes. The campers improved their knowledge and skill in management of diabetes.
