Abstract

Objective: To identify factors associated with treatment adherence to type 2 diabetes mellitus among outpatients at Vo Truong Toan University Hospital in 2025. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 300 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus undergoing outpatient treatment at Vo Truong Toan University Hospital from January 2025 to February 2025. Result: Medication adherence was significantly associated with age, place of residence, occupation, and duration of disease. The odds ratio (OR) for treatment adherence among patients aged ≥ 60 years compared to those < 60 years was 2,199. Patients living in urban areas were 1.660 times more likely to adhere to treatment than those in rural areas. Additionally, patients with a disease duration of ≥ 5 years were 1,971 times more likely to adhere to medication compared to those with a disease duration of < 5 years (p < 0,05).
