Abstract

Introduction: Type II diabetes is a metabolic disorder. Environmental factors and patient awareness have major roles on chronic complications. The purpose of this study was to determine the association of patients' PERCEPTION of t the importance of diabetes and metabolic- control and pursuing of chronic complications.Material and Methods: 194 patients with diabetes enrolled from diabetes clinic of Institute Endocrinology & Metabolism in a cross-sectional study, from February to March 2010. Data were collected using a questionnaire to assess the personal demographics, individual approach in pursuit of complications, and glycemic control, as well as patient PERCEPTION and attitude toward the importance of disease process and follow-up. Level of PERCEPTIONs was determined as well, moderate and weak.Results: Out of 194 patients, 77(39.7%) were male and 117(60.3%) female. Mean age was 52.18±10.17years. 69.2% did not know what the glycosylated hemoglobin was. In 71.4%, willing to participate in decisions making on medical treatment was good and they knew that with initiation of insulin therapy, they would have better metabolic control. 68.9% of patients had regular follow-up for eye complications, and 51% for cardiac complications. Follow-up for diabetic foot complication was poor. Patients with good PERCEPTION had regular follow-up regarding cardiac, eye and renal complications. Conclusion: These results indicate that better PERCEPTION of diabetic patients might improve their compliance for regular follow- up regarding the pursuit of chronic complications, especially cardiac, eye and renal problems. Although, the metabolic- control of patients had not the association with patient PERCEPTION about the importance of diabetes.
