      Public Hospitals in Northeastern Ethiopia: A Facility-Based Cross-Sectional 
      Study.

AB  - OBJECTIVE: Even though life-threatening complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus 
      (T2DM) minimize through self-care practice, extensive studies in northeast 
      Ethiopia have been scarce about self-care practice and predictors. This study 
      aimed to assess diabetes self-care predictors among patients with T2DM patients 
      at Dubti and Assaita hospitals in northeastern Ethiopia. METHODS: A 
      facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 403 patients with T2DM 
      who followed-up in northeastern Ethiopia's Dubti and Assaita hospitals. Data were 
      analyzed using SPSS version-22.0 after the data were entered, sorted and cleaned. 
      Multiple stepwise backward logistic regression analysis was done for a P value of 
      <0.25 to identify the independent predictors of self-care practice. RESULTS: In 
      the present study, males comprised 62% of the sex category. Overall, 63.8% of the 
      study participants had adequate self-care practice, while 36.2% had inadequate 
      self-care practice. Being younger age (AOR 2.27, 95% CI 1.27-4.07, P= 0.005), 
      monthly income status with low (AOR 3.08, 95% CI 1.08-8.78, P= 0.04), average 
      (AOR 2.43, 95% CI 1.15-5.09, P= 0.02) and high (AOR 2.68, 95% CI 1.03-6.99, P= 
      0.04), treated with oral hypoglycemic agents (OHA) (AOR 0.22, 95% CI 0.05-0.95, P 
      = 0.04) and insulin (AOR 0.18, 95% CI 0.04-0.75, P= 0.01), having social support 
      (AOR 3.09, 95% CI 1.76-5.4, P </= 0.01) and diabetic education from health 
      professionals (AOR 5.53, 95% CI 1.92-15.93, P= 0.001) and media (AOR 2.63, 95% CI 
      1.47-4.7, P = 0.001) were the independent predictors of self-care practice. 
      CONCLUSION: In this study, the practice of self-care found to be sub-optimal 
      among patients with T2DM. Independent predictors of self-care practice were age, 
      monthly income, treatment regimen, social support, and diabetic education. 
      Therefore, a suitable approach should be built to improve self-care practice with 
      diabetes.
