Abstract
La Diabetes Mellitus es una de las cuatro principales enfermedades no transmisibles lo que la convierte un problema de salud global. Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo analizar la incidencia de los factores de riesgo en la atención a pacientes con Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2. Se utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo, de tipo analítico y descriptivo, con diseño no experimental, de campo, Se utilizó como técnica la encuesta a una muestra de 169 pacientes a quienes se les aplicaron entrevistas semiestructuradas. Estos instrumentos fueron diseñados para evaluar la prevalencia de diabetes mellitus tipo 2 y la influencia de diversos factores de riesgo, entre los que se incluyen la edad, sexo, la comorbilidad con hipertensión arterial, el índice de masa corporal y el control metabólico. Los resultados revelaron el predominio del rango de edades de adulto mayor, la obesidad dentro de las evaluaciones del índice de masa corporal, la presión arterial normal, aunque con datos de hipertensos a tener en cuenta y un marcado descontrol metabólico, además de la relación directa entre la neuropatía diabética y el sexo, donde predominó el género femenino. Un alto porcentaje de pacientes con la enfermedad reporta experimentar dolor, siendo el 83.8% mujeres en contraste con el 59.3% de hombres. Se concluye que la incidencia de estos factores de riesgo puede influir significativamente en la calidad de vida y en el manejo efectivo de la enfermedad, por lo que se requieren estrategias de gestión y atención específicas que contribuyan a prevenir futuras complicaciones.
Diabetes Mellitus is one of the four main non-communicable diseases, which makes it a global health problem. This research aimed to analyze the incidence of risk factors in the care of patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. A quantitative, analytical and descriptive approach was used, with a non-experimental, field design. The survey technique was used in a sample of 169 patients who were given semi-structured interviews. These instruments were designed to evaluate the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus and the influence of various risk factors, including age, sex, comorbidity with arterial hypertension, body mass index and metabolic control. The results revealed the predominance of the older adult age range, obesity within the body mass index assessments, normal blood pressure, although with data from hypertensive patients to be taken into account and a marked metabolic imbalance, in addition to the direct relationship between diabetic neuropathy and sex, where the female gender predominated. A high percentage of patients with the disease report experiencing pain, with 83.8% being women in contrast to 59.3% of men. It is concluded that the incidence of these risk factors can significantly influence the quality of life and the effective management of the disease, so specific management and care strategies are required to help prevent future complications.
