Patients who are unable to control their blood sugar levels well are at high risk of complications and must be aware of hyperglycemia. This study aims to determine factors related to blood glucose control in the elderly. Compliance with blood glucose control in the elderly can reduce the risk of complications and early detection of health workers in handling diabetes mellitus sufferers in the elderly. The type of design in this study is quantitative with an analytical observational method.
