Personal and systemic factors influencing health outcomes among type 2 diabetes patients presenting at an urban emergency room. - 154 p.

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus affects 16 million people in the United States, accounting for 90% of all diabetes diagnoses. Type 2 diabetes is associated with debilitating health consequences, including hypertension, neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy. It is valuable to identify factors that promote positive health outcomes and consistent, lifelong disease management, in order to mitigate future health consequences. Emergency room visits often result from diabetic complications. Diabetic complications may reflect inadequate diabetes control among patients, and diabetes management may affect, and be affected by, psychological and systemic factors. Therefore, information obtained from an emergency room sample would provide relevant data to study the psychosocial experiences of those struggling with diabetes.

520 $a Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus affects 16 million people in the United States, accounting for 90% of all diabetes diagnoses. Type 2 diabetes is associated with debilitating health consequences, including hypertension, neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy. It is valuable to identify factors that promote positive health outcomes and consistent, lifelong disease management, in order to mitigate future health consequences. Emergency room visits often result from diabetic complications. Diabetic complications may reflect inadequate diabetes control among patients, and diabetes management may affect, and be affected by, psychological and systemic factors. Therefore, information obtained from an emergency room sample would provide relevant data to study the psychosocial experiences of those struggling with diabetes.
520 $a This paper explored psychological and systemic factors of type 2 diabetes patients presenting at an urban emergency room. Archival data for 100 patients with type 2 diabetes were drawn from a previous study assessing emergency room patients. The factors examined in the present study include attitudes toward diabetes and its treatment, symptoms of depression or anxiety, social support, perceptions of health care providers, and locus of control. Health outcome variables included frequency of diabetes-related emergencies, diabetes-related medication management, and extent that current emergency room visit was due to poor diabetes medication use. Results of this study suggest that psychological and social variables are related diabetes-related health outcomes, with small effect sizes. Results also suggest that those with greater diabetes-related health may also experience greater psychological or social health. It is hoped that information from this study will influence future studies of treatment adherence and health outcomes among patients with type 2 diabetes. Limitations of the study are discussed.
