摘要
Diabetic foot complications result in morbidity and lower extremity amputation. This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the foot care behavior among patients with Diabetes Mellitus. More than half of the participants (56.2%) reported a low level of foot care behavior. Gender and educational level were significantly associated with foot care behavior with p-values of 0.044 and 0.001, respectively. This study provided an insight into the current situation of foot care among patients with Diabetes Mellitus. Further research is needed to explore the new method in giving health education for behavioral change thus reducing foot complications among diabetes patients.
