Foot Care Behaviour among Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Malaysia: A cross-sectional study
Diabetic foot complications result in morbidity and lower extremity amputation. Our cross-sectional study aimed to assess the foot care behaviour among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. More than half of the participants (56.2%) reported a low level of foot care behaviour. Gender and educational level were significantly associated with foot care behaviour (p < 0.05). This study provides an overview of the current foot care behaviour in a multi-ethnic population in Southeast Asia. Future studies with rigorous methods are needed to examine the factors associated with the foot care behaviour among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
