| description | Introduction: This study aims, looked at the proportion of diabetic control and cognitive impairment, and its association among elderly Type II diabetes Mellitus in HUSM. As the elderly population in our country and diabetes keep increasing to determine proportion and its associations is important to see our population disease trend. Increase number of ageing people with diabetes will increase our health care burden, thus hopefully it will help in managing geriatric with diabetes population.
Objective: This is a cross sectional study to determine the proportion of cognitive impairment and diabetes control and their association among elderly diabetes in HUSM
Methods: It’s involved 403 patient type 2 DM who attending Klinik Rawatan Keluarga HUSM, age more than 60. This study was conducted from August 2013 until May 2014.
