ABSTRACT: Diabetes mellitus
(DM) is the degenerative disease which the prevalence keeps increasing. Based
on International Diabetes Federation Atlas (IDF Atlas, 2014) the prevalence of
DM in Indonesia reached 5,8%. Based on Kemenkes in 2013, the proportion of DM
in North Sumatra reached 2,3%. The aim of this research is to find out the
characteristics of the DM outpatients at Alifa Diabetic Centre Clinic Medan from
2013 to 2014.
This study is descriptive by using case series design. The population
were 433 outpatients of DM in Alifa Diabetic Centre Clinic Medan from 2013 to
2014. The sample size were 207 cases by using simple random sampling. The data
analysis uses a secondary data by using Chi-Square and Fisher’s Exact.
The results of this research showed that the highest proportion of
patient with DM was at the age group 55-63 years is male (10,6%) and women
(19,8%), Muslim (74,4%), unemployee (37,7%), staying of Medan Maimun district
(67,1%), married (86,5%), the family history of disease (64,7%), type 2 DM
(97,6%), ≤6 visits in a year (78,8%), with complications (59,4%), complication
of diabetic neuropathy (41,9%), ≤5 year (55,2%), OHO (75,4%) and the bad end of
KGD (86,7%). According to the statistical test with Exact Fisher, there was
significant differences between age by the type of DM (p = 0,000). There was no
significant differences between the gender by the type of DM (p = 1,000), the
types of complications by the type of DM (p = 0,155), the age by the types of
complications (p = 0,099), gender by the types of complications (p = 0,521),
occupation by the types of complications (p = 0,334) and the type of
complications by the long history of diabetes (p = 0,051). The results of
statistical test by Chi-Square between KGD end by long history of diabetes and
KGD end based on the number of visits in a year could not be done because there
were 4 cells (66,7%) with expected counts which were less than 5.
It is expected for the clinic to use HbA1C test methods to control blood
sugar levels in diabetic patients. The patients with DM in the clinic should
have a healthy diet and lifestyle in their daily life at home and environment
around.
