Characteristics of Inpatients with Diabetic Ulcers in Margono Soekarjo County Hospital, Indonesia: A Retrospective Study
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Diabetic ulcers, common complications of poorly managed diabetes mellitus, significantly impact physical well-being, afflicting 25% of diabetes patients. We conducted a retrospective study at Margono Soekarjo County Hospital in Indonesia to comprehensively describe demographic and clinical characteristics, aiming to inform prevention, management, and patient-centered care strategies.
Methods: Using secondary data and a cross-sectional approach, we collected information from inpatients with diabetic ulcers at Margono Soekarjo County Hospital in 2020-2021, profiling age, gender, education, occupation, blood sugar levels, and ulcer sites.
Results: Most inpatients were female (56.1%), aged over 60 (46.1%), with primary school education (33.9%). The majority had blood glucose levels >200 mg/dl (58.6%), and foot ulcers were predominant (91.8%).
Discussion: Diabetic ulcers, affecting 25% of diabetes patients, result from poorly managed diabetes and significantly impact physical well-being. Our findings align with global trends, highlighting disparities in education and employment that affect healthcare access.
Conclusion: Addressing these disparities and improving blood glucose management is crucial to mitigate the diabetes burden. Our study underscores the need for tailored public health strategies in Indonesia with potential global relevance.
