Abstract

|
|
Purpose: This study examined factors influencing glycemic control among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients using data from the seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Methods: The subjects were 1,459 patients aged 30 years and older who with T2DM. The subjects were divided into three groups according to glycated hemoglobin A (HbA1c) values: good glycemic control group (good GCG, HbA1c<7%), insufficient GCG (7≤HbA1c<8%), and poor GCG (8%≥HbA1c). Univariate multiple multinomial logistic regression was used.
Results: The patients were distributed as follows: 52.7%, good GCG; 28.4%, insufficient GCG; and 18.9%, poor GCG. In the insufficient GCG, DM duration was a significant factor influencing glycemic control in T2DM. In the poor GCG, age, DM duration, hypertriglyceridemia, waist circumference and muscular exercise were significant factors influencing glycemic control in T2DM.
Conclusion: Strategies for insufficient glycemic control should include intensive glucose control interventions for patients with a DM duration over 5 years. Strategies for poor glycemic control should include intensive glucose control interventions for younger age groups, those with a DM duration >1 year, and those with hypertriglyceridemia. In addition, nursing interventions for weight loss and muscular exercise are needed.
