Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the perception of social support and family functionality by patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) treated at the endocrinology clinic of a university hospital, as well as to verify associations with glycemic control and clinical-demographic variables. Methods: Observational and transversal study, with structured interviews with patients with DM2 in outpatient treatment. Social support was assessed through the Medical Outcome Study (MOS) scale and family functionality by the Smilkstein Family Apgar. Results: A total of 160 patients with a mean age of 55.7 ± 11 years, 76% women and 54.4% of the C class were evaluated. The perception of social support was positive, especially in the affective dimension, but in men and material dimension was higher than in women (p=0.02). There was a difference in this perception among patients with hyperglycemia and normoglycemia only in the information dimension (p=0.04). Family function was related to age (p=0.03) and sex (p=0.02). There was no correlation between social support and family functionality with the variables time of diagnosis, type of treatment, body mass index, duration of follow-up, intervals between returns and economy class. Conclusions: The perception of social support and family functionality was positive, especially among men and the elderly, but was related to glycemia only in the information dimension. It is important to consider sex, age, family and information provision to offer Type 2 diabetic patients an approach that allows them to better cope with the disease.
