Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Diabetes mellitus typ-2 är en kronisk folksjukdom som fortsätter öka över hela världen. Sjukdomen innebär en minskad insulinproduktion tillsammans med en ökad insulinkänslighet. Behandling av sjukdomen ställer krav på en strikt egenvård tillsammans med livsstilsförändringar, som dieter och motion. Kunskap och information om sjukdomen samt stöd från vårdpersonal och närstående beskrivs som viktiga komponenter för att främja egenvård.

Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva personers upplevelser av egenvård vid diabetes typ-2.

Metod: En strukturerad litteraturöversikt som baseras på en sammanställning av resultat från tio vetenskapliga artiklar. Samtliga artiklar är publicerade i databaserna CINAHL Complete och Pubmed. Valda artiklar analyserades och tematiserades utifrån Fribergs metodbeskrivning.

Resultat: Resultatet beskriver både positiva men främst negativa upplevelser av egenvård vid diabetes typ-2, vilka presenteras under fyra huvudteman;Egenvård i vardagen, Kunskap och information, Behov av stöd och Läkemedelsbehandling.

Sammanfattning: Det är vanligt att personer med diabetes typ-2 upplever svårigheter i vardagen då egenvårdshanteringen kräver tid, kunskap och anpassning. Svårigheterna kopplas främst till de livsstilsförändringar som krävs samt integreringen av nya vanor och rutiner. Många personer upplever en bristande motivation, där stödet från närstående och vårdpersonal har en avgörande roll.
