Estudos sugerem que indivíduos com conhecimento adequado sobre DM2 conseguem melhor controle sobre a doença e, portanto, as complicações em longo prazo associadas a ela são evitadas (5,10) . No entanto, nem todos estão preparados para realizar as atividades necessárias para o bom controle da doença (11) , sendo importante que os profissinais de saúde se empenhem em favorecer o conhecimento sobre a doença e os modos de enfrentá-la.…”

RESUMO: O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar fatores associados ao conhecimento e à atitude diante da doença em indivíduos com diabetes. Estudo transversal com 288 indivíduos, mediante entrevista, entre março e setembro de 2014, em seis unidades básicas de saúde no estado do Paraná. O conhecimento insatisfatório sobre a doença (n=194, 67,4%) e a atitude negativa (n=211, 73,4%) foram predominantes. Os fatores associados ao conhecimento insatisfatório foram sexo feminino (p=0,004), baixa escolaridade, ausência de complicações (p=0,011), sem consulta com endocrinologista nos últimos doze meses (p=0,009). Renda maior que dois salários mínimos (p=0,002), circunferência abdominal alterada (p=0,001) e sem realização de exames de sangue nos últimos seis meses (p=0,005) estiveram associados à atitude negativa diante da doença. Evidencia-se a necessidade de intervenções que melhorem o conhecimento dos indivíduos sobre a doença, e que reforcem e estimulem o desenvolvimento e a adoção de comportamentos adequados para o enfrentamento dessa condição crônica. DESCRITORES: Diabetes mellitus; Doença crônica; Conhecimento; Atitude; Autocuidado. FATORES ASSOCIADOS AO CONHECIMENTO E À ATITUDE EM RELAÇÃO AO DIABETES MELLITUS* FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDE OF DIABETIC INDIVIDUALS TOWARDS DIABETES MELLITUSABSTRACT: The present study aimed to identify factors associated to the knowledge and attitude of individuals with diabetes towards the disease. Cross-sectional study in which 288 individuals were interviewed between March and September 2014, in six basic health units in the state of Paraná. Poor knowledge of the disease (n = 194, 67.4%) and negative attitude (n=211, 73,4%) were predominant. Factors associated with unsatisfactory knowledge were female gender (p = 0.004), low educational level, absence of complications (p = 0.011), individuals who had no appointments with an endocrinologist over the last twelve months (p = 0.009). A monthly income higher than two minimum wages (p = 0.002), abnormal waist circumference (p = 0.001) and who had not taken blood tests over the last six months (p = 0.005) were associated with a negative attitude towards the disease. The study highlights the need for interventions to improve the population's knowledge about the disease and encourage the adoption of appropriate behaviors to face this chronic condition.
