Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder that is characterized by an increased level of glucose in the blood resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action or both. Diabetes mellitus has increased the risk of peripheral vascular diseases by causing endothelial and smooth muscle cell dysfunction in peripheral arteries. The risk of developing lower extremity peripheral vascular disease is proportional to the severity and duration of diabetes. Most of the complications are preventable. It requires a lifelong commitment to staying healthy, maintaining weight, exercising, taking medications, as prescribed by the doctor. The research approach was the quantitative approach. The true experimental research design was used.60 samples were selected using non-probability purposive sampling technique.30 patients in the experimental group and 30 patients in the control group. Pre-test used to assess the demographic variable and Angle Brachial Index scale for both groups. After the intervention, the post-test was done on the sixth day by using the same scale. The data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation for descriptive statistics and chi-square was used for inferential statistics. And paired t-test was done.
