Abstract
The socioeconomic impact of diabetes treatment includes significant costs for diagnosis, treatments, hospitalizations, and associated social challenges. According to the International diabetic federation (IDF) guidelines, effective management entails a holistic strategy including nutritious diet, avoiding carbonated beverages, quitting smoking, and routine exercising. Targeted weight loss is critical, comprising antidiabetic medications, a specific food plan, and lifestyle changes to attain a 7-8% glycated hemoglobin level. Proper medicine and footwear use reduces ulcer risks and further complications. The IDF emphasizes detailed treatment plans and sequential screenings. Diabetes management is obligatory, focusing glycaemic control, lifestyle changes, and risk assessment. A study examines treatment programs, medical behaviour, and factors impacting diabetic care reception. This study examined diabetes mellitus treatment in medical facilities by conducting health information reviews in outpatient clinics with a sample size of 400 records. Java applets detected problems, indicating 95% confidence in therapy. Cross-sectional studies in Peshawar hospitals included 250 patients, whereas specialized diabetic treatment centers evaluated 150 patients. Documented care differed; public hospitals had lower foot inspection rates (16.4%) than specialized care (14%). Statistical analysis, such as the Chung test and binary logistic regression, was used to assess variable relationships. Smoking was common (86%), and 59.8% relied on oral anti-diabetic medications. Less than 30% follow up examinations were recorded in public hospitals which showed discrepancies in documentation. Diabetes management can be improved, particularly through better screening procedures. Discrepancies between provided and documented care underscore the need for higher documentation standards. Private clinics demonstrated comparatively better care, possibly influenced by consultation fees, facility availability, and a comfortable environment—attributes lacking in public hospitals in Pakistan.
