Abstract
Background In 2020, according to the international diabetes federation IDF , 463 million people have diabetes in the world and 88 million people in the Southern Asia region of this 88 million people, 77 million belong to India. The prevalence of diabetes in the population is 8.9 . Peripheral Arterial Disease of the lower extremity is an important cause of morbidity and affects 10 million people in India. Buergerallen exercise BAE is one of the types of exercise performed to promote lower extremity perfusion LEP via reducing peripheral vascular disease PVD and promoting wound healing process among patients with diabetes mellitus DM .Method This quasi experimental study was conducted prospectively from July to October 2020 among 60 DM patients in which 30 were in experimental group and 30 were in control group were selected using non probability purposive sampling technique, formal permission was obtained from the concerned higher authorities and were assessed for LEP with a peripheral vascular disease PVD rating scale and Ankle Brachial Pressure Index ABPI rating scale. Then the Buerger Allen exercise was implemented among experimental group and it is continued for 2 times in a day, for 7 days in hospital no intervention given for control group. Then post test was done on the 8th day of intervention for experimental group and control group using same tools. The conceptual framework developed for the study is based on the Modified general system model by Ludwig Von Bertalanffy, 1968 . Results In the Experimental group, 16.66 and in the control group 50 were suffering with diabetes for 5 10 years and they had peripheral vascular disease. Post test mean value of experimental group is 4.53 and standard deviation is 1.33 and post test mean value of control group is 9.16 and standard deviation is 2.24. The calculated unpaired ‘t’ test value 9.72 is greater than that of the table value 2.0017 . This shows that Buerger Allen Exercise is effective in improving lower extremity perfusion among experimental group, highly significant P 0.05 , as assessed by Peripheral Vascular Disease PVD rating scale. Post test mean value of experimental group is .91 and standard deviation is .06 and Post test mean value of control group is .7876 and standard deviationis .06094. The calculated unpaired ‘t’ test value 7.2523 is greater than that of the table value 2.0017 . This shows that Buerger Allen Exercise is effective in improving lower extremity perfusion among experimental group, significant P 0.05 , as assessed by Ankle Brachial Pressure Index ABPI rating scale.Conclusion In this study two tools were used, peripheral vascular disease PVD rating scale and ankle brachial pressure index ABPI rating scale which shows that Buerger Allen exercise helped to improve the lower extremity perfusion among diabetes mellitus patients of experimental group.
