Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic condition that can lead to numerous complications, affecting both physical and psychological health. The quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is influenced by a complex interplay of physical, psychological, socio-economic, and lifestyle factors. The aim of this research is to analyze the quality of life of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in four domains, namely the physical domain, psychological domain, social domain and environmental domain. This study used a descriptive survey method to look at the quality of life of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.  The population in this study was all patients with diabetes mellitus tupe 2 in the city of Pekanbaru.  For sampling, researchers used purposive sampling technique. The number of sample in this study is 30 respondent, because we uses the central limit theorem.  For data analysis, researchers used frequency distributions in SPSS for Windows to describe each domain of quality of life in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. The results of this study are that the majority of respondents have a moderate quality of life in all domains, physical domain 86.7%, psychological domain 93.3%, social domain 86.7% and environmental domain 73.3%. Addressing these issues through comprehensive diabetes management strategies, including mental health support, education, lifestyle modifications, and enhanced social support, is essential for improving the QoL of individuals living with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
