Abstract
Glycemic control is necessary to reduce morbidity and mortality and improving QoL of T1DMM through the prevention and/or delay of these complications. Despite the high susceptibility of Jordanian patients to diabetes and its complications there is scarcity of data in Jordan on the impact of T1DMM on QoL. There is a particular need for research on patients’ perception about QoL and self-care management for T1DMM. Objectives: The aim for this study is to assess QoL in patients' with TIDM and to find out the associations between demographical and QoL among the patients with TIDM. Methods: The study was conducted using a descriptive cross-sectional design, correlation cross-section. The target population for this study was all Jordanian patients who are suffering from T1DMM, while the accessible population will be all adult Jordanian patients who are suffering from T1DMM attending Queen Alia Military Hospital (QAMH). The study instrument included two parts first one the demographical data section. "Audit of Diabetes Dependent Quality of Life (ADDQoL)" was the second element of the instrument used to assess QoL. The SPSS statistics package's programs were used to conduct the statistical analysis (SPSS 24). Results: About 37.3% of survey participants reported that having type 1 diabetes had a negative influence on their quality of life, while 32.9 percent said that their lives would have been better off without the disease. Patients with T1DM showed that the disease had a poor impact on all ADDQoL dimensions. Important associations were perceived between the average weighted impact of ADDQoL values and diabetes complications in T1DM. Diabetes has a noteworthy influence on the quality of life (QoL) of diabetes patients in Jordan, particularly with relation to the liberty to eat and drink. Conclusion: According to the findings of the current study, T1DMM itself has a detrimental impact on patients' quality of life, particularly on their working lives, health status, .......
