KORELASI NILAI LAJU ENDAP DARAH DENGAN KADAR HBA1C PADA PASIEN DIABETES MELITUS TIPE 2 DI RS KEBONJATI BANDUNG

Abstract

Background: In Indonesia, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DMT2) continues to increase. This shows that people are not yet fully aware of the importance of a healthy lifestyle which results in the risk of developing complications caused by DMT2 in the future. The next problem is that many DMT2 sufferers still do not routinely carry out glycemic control so that HbA1c levels increase. Uncontrolled DMT2 can cause acute or chronic complications such as atherosclerosis where chronic inflammation is characterized by increased fibrinogen levels and the formation of rolling which can affect the value of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between erythrocyte sedimentation rate and HbA1 levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Kebonjati Hospital. Methods: The research design used was cross sectional. Samples were taken from 52 respondents suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus at Kebonjati Hospital. Data was collected from examining ESR values and HbA1c levels by analyzing using the Independent T test. Results:The research results obtained HbA1c levels ≤ 8.0% for 26 respondents with high ESR values in 19 people (9 women and 10 men) and normal ESR in 7 people (4 women and 3 men). Meanwhile, HbA1c levels ≥ 8.0% were 26 respondents with high ESR values (19 women and 7 men). Conclusion: The conclusion of this study shows that there is a correlation between ESR values and HbA1c levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Kebonjati Hospital with a value of p=0.000 (p<0.05).
