Good glycemic control is the aim of managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) which is crucial for the prevention of long-term complications in individuals with T2DM. The aim of this study was to identify the factors associated with good glycemic control in individuals with T2DM following up at a rural health-care facility (HCF) in Goa. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 120 individuals with T2DM who regularly followed up at a rural HCF in Goa. Participants were selected using simple random sampling. It was found that the participants belonging to the 60–89 years of age group and those on mono/dual oral therapy were more likely to have good glycemic control. Participants' glycated hemoglobin A1c decreased by 0.083% for every year of increase in age and increased by 0.044% for every centimeter increase in abdominal girth. |
