Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify related factors related to the treatment of diabetic patients.
Methods: The subjects of this study were 23,772 diabetic patients aged 30 years and older who participated in the 2016 Community Health Survey. The independent variables were sociodemographic factors, lifestyle and health-related characteristics and diabetes-related characteristics and the dependent variables were related to diabetes treatment. The statistical analysis methods used to find factors related to treatment in diabetic patients were the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression analysis.
Results: The drug treatment rate of diabetic patients was 88.7%. Among sociodemographic characteristics, drug treatment for diabetes was significantly related to women, increasing age, higher educational level and living in rural area. Among the characteristics related to lifestyle and health status, walking practice and subjective health status were significantly related and among diabetes related characteristics, there were significant correlations in whether it was blood glucose level, self-cognitive blood glucose control, and diabetes management education.
Conclusions: Conclusively, gender, age, education level, residential area, walking practice, self-rated health and knowledge of DM were associated with treatment of DM. An effective diabetes management program that reflects the relevant factors should be applied to the treatment of DM.
