Abstract
RAMIREZ-GONZALEZ, Tania Berenice; ENCISO-GONZALEZ, Jesús and RUVALCABA-LEDEZMA, Jesús Carlos. Psychophysiological profile of stress in people living with Type II Diabetes Mellitus. JONNPR [online]. 2021, vol.6, n.3, pp.488-498. Epub Nov 13, 2023. ISSN 2529-850X. https://dx.doi.org/10.19230/jonnpr.3784.
Introduction.
Diabetes has become a public health problem. Among the psychosocial variables associated with diabetes self-management, according to various studies, which include Sánchez Sosa, Del Castillo Arreola, the American Diabetes Association, is stress, which can be measured through a psychophysiological profile.
Aim.
Determine the level of physiological responses as components of the psychophysiological profile of stress in people living with type II diabetes mellitus of a Health Center in Hidalgo.
Material and methods.
A descriptive observational study was performed, to measure the variables a registration procedure was used that included five phases. The psychophysiological profile included the registration of peripheral temperature (TP) and heart rate variability (VFC). Due to the sympathetic activation of the stress response.
Results:
The results indicate that the temperature in the phases of the stressor decreased and in the rest phases 1 and 2 it increased on average between 1 ° and 2 ° F in most patients. In the case of the VFC was there a parasympathetic predominance corresponding to the AF? in each of the phases of the registry, thus showing a diminished sympathetic activity.
Conclusion.
These results do not coincide with the reports found from previous studies, it is believed that these could be related to belonging to the GAM groups, as well as to the possible presence of atherosclerosis and dyslipidemias. Studies where they have made reports of the psychophysiological profile in patients with diabetes, show reductions in total HRV and temperature, the latter could mean negative results.
