Abstract
Positive or negative perceptions of disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus can affect the patient's ability to manage their disease and perceive the disease as something that can be managed or something that is threatening. Treatment satisfaction influences decisions related to the patient's health and is related to treatment behavior that has an impact on treatment outcomes. This study aims to determine the relationship between perception of disease and satisfaction therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at RSU Undata Palu. This research is a non-experimental research with a cross-sectional method approach by collecting data on independent and dependent variables at one time or simultaneously. The instruments used in this study were the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (B-IPQ) and the Diabetes Medication Satisfaction Tool (DMSAT). The results showed that most of the respondents had a negative perception of disease 51.25% and 62.5% were very satisfied. The results of the chi-square correlation test obtained a p-value of 0.193 (p> 0.05). This shows that there is no significant relationship between perception of disease and satisfaction with therapy for patients with diabetes mellitus at Undata General Hospital, Palu.
