Abstract
Background: Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic disorder caused by failure of the pancreas to produce insulin, which is characterized by increased glucose levels in the blood. In Indonesia, Diabetes Mellitus ranks second in West Java Province with a total of 73,285 sufferers. The aim is to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge and the risk of hypoglycemia in diabetes mellitus patients in the inpatient room at Sentra Medika Cibinong Hospital.
Methods: The method used was a Cross Sectional approach for Diabetes Mellitus patients in the Inpatient Room at Sentra Medika Cibinong Hospital, the sampling technique used Total Sampling with respondents asked to fill out a questionnaire regarding the Level of Knowledge and History of Hypoglycemia.
Results: Of the 50 respondents, the majority of respondents had a good level of knowledge, 39 people
(78.0%), 11 people (22.0%) had sufficient knowledge. Data analysis used Chi Square with the result Pvalue= 0.589. So there is no significant relationship between Knowledge Level and History of Hypoglycemia in Diabetes Mellitus patients in the Inpatient Room at Sentra Medika Cibinong Hospital.
Conclusion: It is hoped that future researchers can determine or select respondents with the type of
Diabetes Mellitus so that they can understand attitudes and prevention of Hypoglycemia.
