Data regarding the prescription status of individuals with diabetes are limited. This study was an analysis of participants from the relationship between cardiovascular disease and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity in patients with type 2 diabetes (REBOUND) Study, which was a prospective multicenter cohort study recruited from eight general hospitals in Busan, Korea. We performed this study to investigate the current status of prescription in Korean type 2 diabetic patients.
Type 2 diabetic patients aged 30 years or more were recruited and data were collected for demographics, medical history, medications, blood pressure, and laboratory tests.
Three thousands and fifty-eight type 2 diabetic patients were recruited. Mean age, duration of diabetes, and HbA1c were 59 years, 7.6 years, and 7.2%, respectively. Prevalence of hypertension was 66%. Overall, 7.3% of patients were treated with diet and exercise only, 68.2% with oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) only, 5.3% with insulin only, and 19.2% with both insulin and OHA. The percentage of patients using antihypertensive, antidyslipidemic, antiplatelet agents was similar as about 60%. The prevalence of statins and aspirin users was 52% and 32%, respectively.
In our study, two thirds of type 2 diabetic patients were treated with OHA only, and one fifth with insulin plus OHA, and 5% with insulin only. More than half of the patients were using each of antihypertensive, antidyslipidemic, or antiplatelet agents. About a half of the patients were treated with statins and one third were treated with aspirin.
关于糖尿病患者处方状况的数据有限。本研究分析了来自韩国釜山八所综合医院的 2 型糖尿病患者心血管疾病与肱踝脉搏波速度关系(REBOUND)研究的参与者的数据。我们进行这项研究是为了调查韩国 2 型糖尿病患者的处方现状。
招募年龄在 30 岁及以上的 2 型糖尿病患者,并收集人口统计学、病史、药物、血压和实验室检查等数据。
共招募了 3058 名 2 型糖尿病患者。平均年龄、糖尿病病程和糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)分别为 59 岁、7.6 年和 7.2%。高血压患病率为 66%。总体而言,7.3%的患者仅接受饮食和运动治疗,68.2%的患者仅接受口服降糖药(OHA)治疗,5.3%的患者仅接受胰岛素治疗,19.2%的患者同时接受胰岛素和 OHA 治疗。使用抗高血压药、调脂药和抗血小板药物的患者比例相似,约为 60%。他汀类药物和阿司匹林的使用率分别为 52%和 32%。
在我们的研究中,三分之二的 2 型糖尿病患者仅接受 OHA 治疗,五分之一的患者同时接受胰岛素和 OHA 治疗,5%的患者仅接受胰岛素治疗。超过一半的患者使用每种降压药、调脂药或抗血小板药物。约一半的患者接受他汀类药物治疗,三分之一的患者接受阿司匹林治疗。
