| dc.description.abstract | Damage to motor nerves in people with diabetes increases the risk of a foot injury. So far, the
examination of motor nerve damage in people with diabetes in agricultural areas such as the Jember
Regency is still rarely touched by primary health services. The purpose of this study was to identify
motor nerve damage in people with diabetes in the agriculture area of the Jember Regency. This
type of research is exploratory, descriptive, 102 respondents obtained by purposive sampling
technique. Data collection uses instrument modification from MNSI (Michigan Neuropathy Screening
Instrument) and MDNS (Michigan Diabetic Neuropathy Score). The analysis used in univariate and
displayed in the frequency distribution. The results showed that the majority of respondents who
suffer from DM are experienced in the middle adulthood category (71.6%), with a length of suffering
more than five years (95.1%), and have a history of comorbidities (68.6%). The most common form
of motor deformity damage was hallux valgus on the right and left legs (38.2%; 26.4%). Forms of
motor damage in the form of muscle strength, severe damage to the abduction of the right and left
legs (7.8%), and were found right or left toe extensions (1.9%; 2.9%). Motor damage in the form of
no physiological reflexes was found in the right and left Quadriceps femoral (2%; 1%), and right or
left leg Achilles (1%). The result of total motor damage assessment is that people with diabetes have
decreased muscle strength in the right and left extremities (74.5%; 72.5%). This research shows that
the majority of people with diabetes in the agriculture area of the Jember Regency suffer motor nerve
damage. Therefore, there is a need for preventive measures to prevent the worsening condition of
people with diabetes. | en_US |
