ABSTRACT
Objective: to evaluate survival rate
in older adults diagnosed with type 2
diabetes mellitus (T2DM) according to
Mexico’s Clinical Practice Guidelines
(CPG) for the diagnosis and treatment
of T2DM in vulnerable older adults.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was
carried out, collecting the electronic
records of participants matriculated in
Family Medicine Unit No. 80 of the
Mexican Institute of Social Security in
Morelia, Michoacan, Mexico. Electronic
files of participants older than 65
years old and diagnosed with T2DM
were included. The cpg was used to
identify vulnerability, geriatric syndromes,
participants complications, as well
as T2DM diagnosis and treatment. The
Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was applied
to evaluate data distribution; Student’s
T test for independent samples, and
Kaplan Meier with Log Rank were
assessed to compare survival curves.
Statistical significance was established
with p‹0.05.
Results: 41 vulnerable
older adults (28.47%) and 103 nonvulnerable
older adults (71.52%) were
analyzed; 90.2% of the vulnerable
adults presented polypharmacy and
73.2%, cognitive impairment. Nephropathy
was the most frequent
complication (p‹0.0001). Survival
curves showed that vulnerable adults die
before than non-vulnerable adults [Log
Rank: 4.180; p=0.041].
Conclusions:
vulnerable older adults have lower
survival rate than non-vulnerable ones,
and this result is influenced by metabolic
control, cognitive impairment,
polypharmacy, and depression.
