| الوصف: | Introduction: In the management of hypertension and diabetes mellitus, a systematic response like modifications in lifestyles is needed along with the medication. The study was conducted to determine the impact of comprehensive lifestyle modifications on hypertension and diabetes and to compare it with that of physical activity alone as a health education intervention. Materials and Method: A risk factor-based community intervention trial was conducted for one year in 3 villages in coastal Karnataka. The sample of 305 was calculated depending on the expected change in blood pressure and an equal sample size was drawn from each of the villages using a systematic random sampling method. Baseline data on blood pressure level, random blood sugar, and HbA1c levels were recorded. After 1 year of intervention, all the parameters were further recorded along with the adherence to medication for these non-communicable diseases. Results: The mean difference between the groups suggested that participants with physical activity intervention reported a statistically significant reduction in systolic blood pressure. In the comprehensive lifestyle modification group, there was a significant reduction in both diastolic blood pressure and glycated hemoglobin levels (21 mmHg and 2.1%; p < 0.001). Conclusion: The study indicates that in the management of hypertension and diabetes mellitus, the impact of comprehensive lifestyle modifications was more significant compared to physical activity alone. |
