摘要

台灣地區糖尿病友團體在行政院衛生署國民健康局鼓勵之下陸續成立，至2007年11月，共成立了453個團體，本研究的目的爲評估這些團體的運作成效。以衛生署國民健康局所設計的「2007年糖尿病友團體重點成效評值表」作爲評量工具，並統一發函直轄市及各縣市政府衛生局辦理調查，評量項目包括自我血糖監測、飲食、運動、體重控制，及糖化血色素等，以團體爲單位，逐項詢問實際執行的糖尿病友及高危險群的人數，但糖化血色素只適用糖尿病人。回收320個團體的資料，分析結果顯示執行各項自我照護行爲的糖尿病友人數有增加的團體數爲221-294個(69.1%-91.9%)，而執行自我照護行爲的高危險群人數有增加的團體數爲128-174個(40.0%-54.4%)；全省各區的參與情形不同，各項自我照護行爲的執行也有差異。
