Diabetes has become one of public health problem up until now. As the disease progressed, it might lead to increasing complication as well as death related to them. Diabetes as chronic disease in older people can lead to more vulnerable conditions if they fail to carry out a proper diabetes self-management. Diabetes literacy is an internal factor affecting how the older people go about their diabetes management routines. This study aimed to describe diabetes literacy of the older people and identify the relation of diabetes literacy to diabetes self-management of the older people with T2DM in selected areas of Depok City, West Java, Indonesia. A cross-sectional observational study was utilized and used 106 samples of older people individuals with T2DM, all of whom were chosen via cluster sampling. This research took place in five selected areas under the supervision of three public health center in Depok City. The data were analyzed using a bivariate t-independent test, the Pearson product-moment correlation, and logistic regression for multivariate analysis to determine the relationship of independent and dependent variable. This research shows a significant correlation between diabetes literacy and diabetes self-management (p = 0,011). Diabetes self management is associated with diabetes literacy in older people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Diabetes literacy should be considered when assessing and addressing diabetes-specific health education needs.

老年 2 型糖尿病患者糖尿病素养与自我管理的关联：一项横断面研究

迄今为止，糖尿病已成为公共卫生问题之一。随着疾病的进展，它可能导致与它们相关的并发症和死亡增加。如果老年人未能进行适当的糖尿病自我管理，糖尿病作为一种慢性疾病会导致更脆弱的状况。糖尿病知识是影响老年人如何进行糖尿病管理的内部因素。本研究旨在描述印度尼西亚西爪哇省德波市选定地区老年人的糖尿病素养，并确定糖尿病素养与老年 T2DM 老年人糖尿病自我管理的关系。使用了一项横断面观察研究，并使用了 106 个患有 T2DM 的老年人的样本，所有这些样本都是通过整群抽样选择的。这项研究在德波市三个公共卫生中心的监督下在五个选定的地区进行。使用双变量 t 独立检验、Pearson 积矩相关性和多变量分析的逻辑回归对数据进行分析，以确定自变量和因变量的关系。这项研究表明，糖尿病知识与糖尿病自我管理之间存在显着相关性 (p = 0,011)。糖尿病自我管理与老年 2 型糖尿病患者的糖尿病素养相关。在评估和解决特定于糖尿病的健康教育需求时，应考虑糖尿病知识。和逻辑回归进行多变量分析，以确定自变量和因变量的关系。这项研究表明，糖尿病知识与糖尿病自我管理之间存在显着相关性 (p = 0,011)。糖尿病自我管理与老年 2 型糖尿病患者的糖尿病素养相关。在评估和解决特定于糖尿病的健康教育需求时，应考虑糖尿病知识。和逻辑回归进行多变量分析，以确定自变量和因变量的关系。这项研究表明，糖尿病知识与糖尿病自我管理之间存在显着相关性 (p = 0,011)。糖尿病自我管理与老年 2 型糖尿病患者的糖尿病素养相关。在评估和解决特定于糖尿病的健康教育需求时，应考虑糖尿病知识。
