Factors associated with KAP results
Analysis of factors associated with KAP results was summarized inTable 4 . Patients having duration of insulin one year or more had better knowledge (p=0.025), more positive attitude (p=0.017), and better practice of insulin (p=0.042). Patients using insulin combined with oral diabetic medications or having history of using insulin vials had more positive attitude of insulin role (0.038). Frequency of having good knowledge was statistically significantly higher in participants who received counseling from health professionals previously (p=0.001). The study also found a positive correlation between good knowledge of patients and good practical skills (p<0.001). Other independent variables such as age, sex, location, occupation, level of education, duration of diabetes, family history, and comorbidity did not affect significantly statistically with KAP results.
