Diabetes quality of life collection (0) recommendation (0) With the advancement of medical technology and new and more active treatment, the patient's survival rate has been successfully increased, and people's attention has increasingly turned to the patient's quality of life (QOL) ) not the length of life. Diabetes is common throughout the world and is an increasingly important public health issue.

In the United States, diabetes accounts for 8% of the adult population. In many developing countries, including Saudi Arabia, the incidence of diabetes continues to increase. In Saudi Arabia, the prevalence of diabetes is between 30 and 70 years old, and 4,014 (23.7%) of the 16,917 people in the National Research Assessment have been diagnosed with diabetes. 25.5% of urban residents and 19.5% of rural residents. Although the current medical facilities are very popular, there are still a large number of diabetic patients (27.9%) who do not know that they are already ill.

Diabetes has a series of adverse effects on the quality of life of patients. Some studies have shown that diabetes has a strong negative impact on quality of life, especially in the event of complications. Therefore, the Fahad S. Al-Shehri of the Joint Program of Family Medicine in Saudi Arabia recently evaluated the quality of life of people with diabetes in Saudi Arabia and identified possible risk factors associated with reduced quality of life. The results were published in the research. The journal English Journal "Journal of Diabetes Mellitus" (diabetes) was published in August 2014.

The study included diabetes patients at the Centerin Riyadh University Diabetes Clinic and found that the majority of diabetic patients (78.7%) had negative quality of life scores. There was no significant correlation between age, education, and occupational and quality of life in diabetic patients. The quality of life of female patients was significantly lower than that of male patients (p=0.026). The quality of life of married patients was significantly worse than that of unmarried patients (p = 0.012). The quality of life of patients with type 2 diabetes was significantly lower than that of patients with type 1 diabetes (p=0.029).

In addition, the time of illness has a certain impact on the quality of life of diabetic patients, and those with more than 20 years of illness have the worst quality of life. The quality of life was the worst when the condition was unstable, and the quality of life was worse in patients with diabetic complications, including neuropathy (p=0.03), retinopathy (p<0.001), and diabetic foot (p=0.031). Large, kidney disease silver effect is not significant.

Therefore, it is not enough to rely on treatment to prolong life after illness. If we want patients to be more like normal people, we still have a lot to do. We need to understand the disease in more detail, control the disease, and try to prevent complications.
