IMAGES OF UREUM SERUM LEVELS IN TYPE II MELLITUS DIABETES AT TOTO KABILA HOSPITAL

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a carbohydrate metabolism disorder characterized by an increase in glucose levels in the blood or hyperglycemia. Where the prankreas organ is unable to produce the hormone insulin as needed and the body so that the body is unable to convert glucose into glycogen. The urea relationship among respondents with Diabetes Mellitus occurs because glucose in the blood cannot be converted into glycogen, in this case it will cause microvascular complications in the kidneys, if hyperglycemia occurs, the kidneys cannot filter and absorb a certain amount of glucose in the blood. The purpose of this study was to determine serum urea levels in people with Diabetes Mellitus Type II.

This research method is descriptive, namely research with a quantitative approach. The research design used a descriptive cross-sectional study which aims to determine serum urea levels in people with Diabetes Mellitus Type II at Toto Kabila Hospital.

The research sample consisted of 30 samples of Type II Diabetes Mellitus sufferers using the Automatic method with a Mindray BS-120 device at the Toto Kabila Hospital Laboratory. The results of the research on the examination of serum urea levels in patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus at Toto Kabila Hospital, from 30 samples, obtained that the urea serum levels increased by 17 (56.7%) and normal urea serum levels were 13 (43.3%).
