糖尿病患者的生活质量在文献中并不是一个新的概念。然而,有争议的问题是,文献中与生活质量相关的因素是否适用于乌干达的糖尿病患者。一个样本的219名门诊病人参加Mulago糖尿病诊所,在乌干达的国家转诊医院,是用来提供一个了解这个问题。生活质量的评估维度的角色限制,由于身体健康,情绪健康,治疗满意度,身体耐力和饮食满意度的基础上的五点李克特量表。使用频率分布、汇总统计量和泊松回归对患者的特征、医疗条件、生活方式因素和药物类型进行分析。研究结果证实,年龄和教育程度对生活质量的影响在角色限制和身体耐力维度上存在一致性(P < 0.05)。关于糖尿病足溃疡在身体耐力方面的影响,得出了类似的结论。因此,与生活质量相关的因素并不完全是该国糖尿病患者所独有的。
Quality of life of diabetic patients is not a new concept in literature. The contentious issue however is whether factors associated in literature with quality of life apply to diabetic patients in Uganda. A sample of 219 outpatients attending Mulago diabetic clinic—a national referral hospital in Uganda—is used to provide an understanding of this issue. Quality of life is assessed in the dimensions of role limitation due to physical health, emotional health, treatment satisfaction, physical endurance, and diet satisfaction based on a five-point Likert scale. The analysis is made by patients' characteristics, medical conditions, lifestyle factors, and type of medication using frequency distributions, summary statistics, and a Poisson regression. In the results, we confirm a consensus regarding the influence of age and education level on the quality of life in the dimensions of role limitation and physical endurance (P < 0.05). A similar conclusion is reached with regards to impact of diabetic foot ulcers in the dimension of physical endurance. Thus, the factors associated with quality of life are not entirely unique to diabetic patients in the country.
