This study aims to investigate the fear and compliance of Insulin Degludec and Insulin Aspart (IDegAsp) injection in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients and study the factors influencing patient compliance. A total of 120 patients with T2DM treated from February 2019 to March 2022 were investigated and analyzed for fear and compliance on the Diabetes Fear of Injecting and Self-testing Questionnaire of diabetic patients and were divided into compliance and noncompliance groups according to the results to analyze the factors affecting patient compliance. The study found a high level of fear of IDegAsp injection among the 120 T2DM patients, with an average Diabetes Fear of Injecting and Self-testing Questionnaire score of (39.19 ± 4.59) points. Scores for medication compliance, dietary compliance, blood sugar monitoring, and lifestyle changes were (10.48 ± 1.52) points, (12.18 ± 2.27) points, (0.84 ± 0.12) points, and (9.13 ± 2.21) points, respectively. There was no significant difference between the compliance and noncompliance groups in terms of gender, age, lifestyle, educational level, occupation, current treatment method, family monthly income per capita, and medical payment method (P > .05). However, there were significant differences influenced by disease duration, complications, cognitive level, self-efficacy level, comorbidity count, and living status (P < .05). Multifactorial analysis showed that educational level, disease duration, complications, cognitive level, self-efficacy level, comorbidity count, and living status all affected patient compliance (P < .05). Educational level, disease duration, complications, cognitive level, self-efficacy level, comorbidity count, and living status are important factors affecting the fear and treatment compliance of IDegAsp injection in T2DM patients. These findings have implications for improving patient compliance and alleviating treatment fear.
