IMAGES OF CREATININE LEVELS IN DIABETES MELLITUS IN INSTITUTION IN TOTO KABILA Hospital

Abstract

DM is a health problem in the form of symptoms caused by increased blood glucose levels due to insufficient or insulin resistance. The condition of hyperglycemia that occurs can cause complications, one of which is diabetic nephropathy in which the kidneys have decreased function resulting in damage to the lining of the blood vessels caused by high glucose levels. Based on data from the Gorontalo City Health Office, in 2018-2019 there was an increase in DM sufferers by 4,415 to 6,785 people.

The purpose of this study was to know the description of creatinine levels in DM patients hospitalized at Toto Kabila Hospital. This research is a quantitative descriptive study and creatinine examination using automatic methods. The population in this study were all DM patients with Accidental Sampling sampling technique.

The results of the creatinine level examination showed normal results, namely 53.6% and abnormal results, namely 46.4%. The result of creatinine levels at age tends to be more at the age of 46-55 years, namely 55.6%, and at the age of 56-65 years, 54.5%. The results of creatinine levels in the sex showed that the normal result in women was 100% and the abnormal result was 0.0%, in men the normal result was 18.8% and the abnormal result was 81.3%. The results of creatinine in the offspring showed that there was an offspring, namely 41.7% and the absence of offspring, namely 50.0%. The results of the study concluded that DM patients with normal creatinine results were more than those with abnormal results.
