Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of GSR (galvanic skin resistance) biofeedback relaxation technique on blood glucose and anxiety level of type 2 diabetes patients. The total sample size for this study was 12 diabetes patients include 6 male and 6 female participants. Incidental sampling method was adopted to select the sample. Intervention program for the study was 20 days for each patient. The blood glucose and anxiety level were measured before and after the training on day 1st and 20th. Result indicates that there is significant mean difference between the score of blood glucose in pre and post conditions of the interventions. The blood sugar level of type 2 diabetes patients is lowered in post condition indicating the influence of biofeedback intervention. A sample of adequate size may reveal a significant effect of biofeedback. There is significant mean difference between the score of state – trait anxiety among pre and post test score of type 2 diabetes patients.
Highlights
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of GSR biofeedback relaxation technique on blood glucose and anxiety level of type 2 diabetes patients
Paul and Sandhu, (2007) Noted that Electroencephalography, and Electromyography, Biofeedback trainings are useful in the treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Bembalgi et al (2013) found that electromyography biofeedback more valuable technique compare to galvanic skin resistance
Summary
It is observed from the table showing that ‘t’ value is significant at 0.05 level it can be said that there is difference in pre and post condition of Blood sugar level of the patient. The mean value obtained in pre & post condition shows that is post condition blood sugar level is lowered. Participant on state and trait anxiety levels
