A comparative study on cardiovascular parameters in Normal & Type 2 Diabetes mellitus patients in Rajasthan.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major public health problem world-wide. It is a significant health care challenge of the 21st century. Methods: The study was carried out in 50 Type-2 diabetic patients in the age group of 40-70 years with duration of diabetes ranging from 6 months to 20 years. Control Group consists of 50 normal individuals who matched with diabetes in age, sex and socio economic condition as far as possible. Informed written consent was taken from the subjects prior to the start of the study. Results: The mean value of heart rate in 50 Diabetic patients was found to be 84.20 with standard deviation of 12.54 which higher when compared with the mean value of heart rate in 50 normal people which is 81.46 with standard deviation of 10.24. But this difference was statistically not significant (p>0.05). Mean arterial pressure of Diabetic patients was found to be 96.80 mmHg with a standard deviation of 7.60 which again is more than mean arterial pressure of normal persons which is 98.02 mmHg with standard deviation of 8.02. Though there is a difference in mean arterial pressure among two groups, but it was not statistically significant (p>0.05) Conclusion: There is increased need for regular health checkups especially of the cardiovascular system to prevent complications.
