Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the health-related quality of life and clinical parameters of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, which was undertaken with 73 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in a health unit of the Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) [Brazilian Unified Health System] in Ribeirão Preto city, São Paulo State, Brazil, in 2016. The DQOL-Brazil questionnaire, which covers the domains of satisfaction, impact, social and/or vocational concerns, and concerns about diabetes mellitus, was used for data collection. Results: Most of the participants were female, married, and retired with an average age of 62.7 years old. The domain of vocational and/or social concerns had the best score for quality of life while satisfaction had the worst. The quality of life of patients with altered glycated hemoglobin levels was worse than that of patients without such alterations. For those with unchanged hemoglobin glycated levels, the domain of social and/or vocational concerns had the best quality of life scores while the domain of satisfaction had the worst. Conclusion: The results can help the development of intervention studies and strategic plans in health services.

Penelitian dilakukan untuk mengetahui perbedaan Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) terhadap karakteristik sosiodemografi antara pasien diabetes mellitus tipe 2 pada  salah satu rumah sakit pemerintah di Jakarta. Penelitian dilaksanakan secara cross-sectional dari Februari sampai April 2015. Total sampel 83 pasien. Laki-laki 31(37,4%) dan perempuan 52 (62,6%). Terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan (P<0,05) nilai HRQoL terhadap tingkat pendidikan. Berdasarkan nilai domain HRQoL, perempuan memiliki nilai lebih tinggi (69.82 ± 3.14) dibandingkan dengan laki-laki (67.32 ± 4.50) pada domain frekuensi gejala (P<0,05). Pasien dengan usia yang lebih lanjut memiliki nilai tertinggi pada domain kepuasan (P<0,05). Sebaliknya, pasien dengan usia lebih lanjut memiliki nilai terendah (64,14 ± 4,03)  pada domain frekuensi gejala (P<0,05). Pasien dengan tingkat pendikan SMA memiliki nilai lebih rendah (60,17 ± 24,65) pada domain kepuasan pengobatan dibandingkan dengan pasien dengan pendidikan diploma/sarjana (78,78 ± 21,98). Nilai domain frekuensi gejala lebih tinggi pada pasien bekerja dibandingkan dengan tidak bekerja (P<0,05). Jumlah pendapatan tidak mempengaruhi secara signifikan terhadap nilai semua domain (P>0,05) HRQoL. Selanjutnya, lama menderita diabetes mempengaruhi nilai domain kepuasan (P=0,05) dan frekuensi gejala (P=0,00). Sehingga dapat disimpulkan, karakteristik sosiodemografi meliputi tingkat pendidikan memiliki perbedaan secara signifikan terhadap kualitas hidup antara pasien rawat jalan diabetes mellitus tipe 2.
