Brief Summary
As the proportion of the elderly population increases, so does the number of people suffering from diabetes mellitus (DM). Fatigue is common in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes, and malnutrition may lead to a decrease in muscle strength, thereby aggravating their fatigue symptoms; however, there is still a lack of relevant research on this group in Taiwan. Therefore, the purposes of this study are to understand the current status and correlation of basic attributes, nutritional status, handgrip strength and fatigue in hospitalized older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
