The study aims to describe  practice and factors related to self-care of outpatients with type 2 diabetes treated at Xay Dung Hospital during Covid-19 pandemic. A cross-sectional study, which was conducted with a sample size of 300 patients with type 2 diabetes who met the interview criteria using a pre-prepared questionnaire. As the results, only 56.3% of patients practiced good self-care with an average score of 14.28 ± 2.71 out of a total score of 21. The adherence to dietary practices, self-control of blood sugar and exercises is poor. Self-care practice is related to education level, disease duration and self-care knowledge.
