Abstract

Diabetes Melitus (DM) is a metabolic disease with hyperglycemia characteristics. DM patients in a state of hyperglycemia can reduce the function of phagocytosis by infectious cells and cause inflammation. Inflammation can be measured using certain biomarkers, one of which is white blood cells or leukocytes. Leukocytes are blood components that can detect infections caused by bacteria and viruses, and can see the body's immunity. Leukocytes play a role in the body's defense system. The number of leukocytes can help diagnose organ damage and be a source of information about the process of immune deficiency in DM. The purpose of this study was to determine the description of the leukocyte count in patients with type 2 diabetes. This type of research is descriptive research. This research requires data from leukocyte count results and questionnaire data to then be analyzed descriptively. The sampling technique in this study was total sampling with 30 respondents with DM patients at Posyandu Cambodia 2 Gedangan Village, Grogol District, Sukoharjo Regency. The results of the study on 30 respondents obtained an average number of leukocytes in patients with type 2 diabetes, which is 7,922/mm3. The lowest value is 4,400/mm3 and the highest value is 11,700/mm3. The results of the study describe that the majority of respondents are female, namely 26 people (86.7%) with age >46 years, namely 27 people (90%), and having DM for < 5 years as many as 28 respondents (93%). The conclusion of this study is that of the 30 respondents, the majority of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were female with age >46 years with the majority suffering from less than 5 years, and the majority of respondents had normal leukocyte counts (93%).
