The nursing care approach involved family participation, nutritional management, and education on low glycemic index diets, alongside managing hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. Results indicated improved nutritional fulfillment, with dietary adherence and insulin administration effectively controlling blood glucose levels and increasing albumin levels.
