Background: Diabetes mellitus poses a significant challenge within the healthcare domain and ranks as the sixth leading cause of mortality globally. Diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus typically involves conducting examinations such as Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and Body Mass Index (BMI) assessments. This study endeavors to investigate the characteristics of HbA1c and BMI examination findings among patients diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus at Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah General Hospital, focusing on age and gender.
Methods: Employing a descriptive approach, this cross-sectional study was conducted with a cohort of 121 Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus cases at Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G. Ngoerah General Hospital, spanning from October 1 to December 31, 2023. Data was extracted from the hospital's Medical Records Department, utilizing secondary data from medical records.
Results: The study results showed that normal HbA1c levels (<5.7%) were predominantly found in the 44-75 years age group (42.9%) and females (85.7%). Prediabetes HbA1c levels (5.7%-6.4%) were predominantly found in the 44-60 years age group (50%) and males (56.3%). Diabetes HbA1c levels (≥6.5%) were predominantly found in the 44-60 years age group (45.9%) and males (55.1%). Underweight BMI (<18.5) was predominantly found in the 44-75 years age group (42.9%) and males (57.1%). Normal BMI (18.5-24.9) was predominantly found in the 44-60 years age group (44.6%) and males (57.1%). Overweight BMI (25.0-29.9) was predominantly found in the 44-60 years age group (57.5%) and females (55.0%). Obese BMI (≥30) was predominantly found in the 25-44 years age group (44.4%) and males (55.6%).
Conclusion: The distribution of HbA1c and BMI in Type 2 Diabetes patients varies by age and gender, with significant differences observed between age groups and genders.
