Abstract

Objective: Assess the nutritional status and discuss certain associated aspects of type 2 diabetes patients receiving outpatient treatment at Tra Vinh Provincial General Hospital. Research subjects and methods: During May 16, 2023, to July 28, 2023, 247 type 2 diabetic patients receiving outpatient care at Tra Vinh Provincial General Hospital's Internal Medicine clinic participated in a cross-sectional descriptive study. Results: The following findings were obtained from a study of 247 type 2 diabetics who were seen at the Internal Medicine Clinic of Tra Vinh Provincial General Hospital: BMI on average 23,7±2,95 kg/m². According to the World Health Organization's classification, the percentage of patients who are overweight or obese is 30,4% and 1,6%, respectively, while the percentage of patients who are underweight is 1,6%. Patients with a high-risk waist circumference make up 66,7% of the male patient population and 91,1% of the female patient population. Furthermore, the study discovered a link between type 2 diabetes patients' overweight or obesity and their lifestyle choices, such as drinking alcohol and smoking. Conclusion: According to research findings, type 2 diabetes patients receiving outpatient treatment also need to have their nutritional status evaluated and screened in order to identify any nutritional concerns. Based on these findings, patients can then receive counseling and recommendations. Nutritional intervention and prompt treatment both increase the likelihood of positive clinical outcomes.
