The study aimed at assessing the determinants and outcomes of nursing management of diabetic foot ulcer among nurses and patients in the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital. The Donabedian model was adopted. Concurrent triangulation mixed-method approach was adopted. Purposive and simple random sampling was used to select the ward and administer the questionnaire. Taro Yamane’s formula was used to select 91 participants from a target population of 105. Quantitative data was collected using a self-structured questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.80 and analyzed using SPSS version 25 for descriptive and inferential statistics presented in tables and figures. Purposive sampling technique was used to select 6 respondents for the qualitative study. Qualitative data were collected using an interview guide and analyzed using NVivo version 15. The findings report that the majority of the nurses 95.6% had significant knowledge, 51.6% of the nurses had good knowledge, while 44% had fair knowledge. Using mean score, the findings reported key determinants to be poor patient adherence to the medication regimen(4.35) and poor glycemic control(4.10). These determinants were reported to have an influence on the outcomes of management, which are prolonged hospitalization(3.24) and unhealed wound(2.95). Qualitative findings highlighted themes such as preexisting knowledge of diabetes (4 patients) and financial constraints (3 patients) as determinants of patient adherence to management. It is therefore recommended that hospital administrators develop and implement policies to improve diabetic foot care....Preview Download Preview +Other Nursing Science project topics and materials you might be interested in»Factors contributing to ineffective utilization of immunization programme among mothers in Ekwerazu town Ahiazu Mbaise local government area Imo state»Knowledge and practice of quality assurance among nurses working in accident and emergency unit of University of Ilorin teaching hospital, Kwara state»Awareness of female genital mutilation and its implication to reproductive health among mothers in Amaifeke in Orlu local government, Imo state»Factors that influence the patronage of traditional birth attendants in Umuowa community Orlu Lga, Imo State»Accessibility and use of information communication technology (ICT) in the enhancement of nursing education among nursing students in Madonna University Teaching Hospital (MUTH)»Attitude of nurses towards research among accident and emergency nurses of University of Ilorin teaching hospital»Awareness and practice of pressure sores prevention in the care of the elderly among nurses in Madonna University Teaching Hospital»Incidence of protein energy malnutrition among children under five years in General Hospital, Yelwa Yauri, Kebbi state»Factors influencing the attitudes of women toward family planning in Rivers state»Assessment of nutritional pattern and practice among pregnant women in holy rosary hospital»Assessment of exclusive breastfeeding in the development of under-five children in Madonna University Teaching Hospital»Burnout syndrome and use of therapeutic approaches among nursing students in Madonna University, Rivers state»Assessment of practices used in the prevention of Lassa fever infection among health workers in Madonna University Teaching Hospital»Factors influencing high rate of abortion among women of childbearing age in Saki, Saki West Local Government Area, Oyo State»Awareness of determinants of sexual abuse and identification of supportive care among female nursing student of Madonna University
