ABSTRACT : Diabetes is a chronic disease of life long duration, and its management require a fundamental change in the patients’ life style. The success of long term maintenance therapy for diabetes mellitus depends largely upon the patients compliance with a therapeutic plan. This study aimed to assess compliance to therapeutic regimen of diabetic patients attending out-patient clinic and in-patinet department at Assiut University Hospital (n=100). The results showed that, more than half of the patients 60(60%) had good compliance with diet regimen, and majority of the patients (78%) had good compliance with treatment regimen, and 75% of the patients had good compliance for periodic check up for glycemic status. However, 45%, 70%, 56% and 88% had poor compliance with foot care, smoking cessation, blood pressure monitoring and eye examination respectively. يعتبر مرض السکرى من الأمراض المزمنة والتى تستمر طيلة الحياة، وعلاجه يحتاج إلى تغيرات أساسية فى نمط حياة المريض؛ لذلک فأن نجاح العلاج لفترات طويلة يعتمد بصورة کبيرة على امتثال المريض لخطة العلاج، وتهدف هذه الدراسة إلى تقييم الامتثال لنظام العلاج لمرضى السکرى المترددين على العيادة الخارجية والقسم الداخلى بمستشفى أسيوط الجامعى . وقد تم دراسة 100 مريض، وأظهرت النتائج إلى أن أکثر من نصف المرضى 60% قد امتثلوا جيداً للنظام الغذائى، 78% امتثلوا جيداً لنظام العلاج الدوائى، 75% امتثلوا جيداً للمتابعة الدورية لحالة السکر بالدم وعلى الجانب الآخر فقد کان الامتثال ضعيفاً للعناية بالقدمين والتوقف عن التدخين ومتابعة ضغط الدم وفحص العين فى 45%، 70%، 56%، 88% على الترتيب . | ||||
