ABSTRACT
 Objective: This descriptive study was conducted to determine the physical activity levels of geriatric individuals diagnosed with diabetes. Material and Methods: This research data was collected with 105 geriatric diabetic patients who applied to the Family Health Center between September 2020 and June 2021. The data of the study were collected by Questionnaire and International Physical Activity Survey (IPAQ). In the evaluation of IPAQ, the criterion was that each activity was performed for at least 10 minutes at a time, and a score as ''MET-minute/week'' was obtained by multiplying it with the Metabolic Equivalent of Task value (multiples of oxygen consumption at rest). Then physical activity levels; They were classified as physically inactive (<600 MET-min/week), low physical activity level (600-3000 MET-min/week) and sufficient physical activity level (>3000 METmin/week). Results: It was determined that the mean IPAQ score of the patients was 473.7±617.8 and 74.2% were not physically active. Those who are female, 75 years or older, illiterate, know what can happen if they do not comply with treatment, comply with medical nutrition treatment, meet with a diabetes nurse, exercise regularly, know the importance of physical activity in diabetes treatment, and do physical activity in accordance with diabetes treatment and as recommended,IPAQ score average was found to be higher (p<0.05). Conclusion: According to the results of this research, it was determined that the physical activity levels of diabetic geriatric individuals were insufficient.

ÖZET
 Amaç: Tanımlayıcı tipteki bu çalışma, diyabet tanısı alan geriatrik bireylerin fiziksel aktivite düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla yapıldı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu araştırmanın verileri Eylül 2020- Haziran 2021 tarihleri arasında Aile Sağlığı Merkezine başvuran 105 geriatrik diyabet hastası ile görüşülerek toplanmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında soru formu ve Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Araştırması (UFAA) kısa formundan yararlanılmıştır. UFAA değerlendirmesinde, her aktivitenin bir defada en az 10 dk yapılması kriteri alınmış ve Metabolik Eşdeğer Görev değeri (oksijen katları) ile çarpılarak ''METdk/hafta'' skoru elde edilmiştir. Daha sonra fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri; fiziksel olarak aktif olmayan (<600 MET-dk/hafta), düşük fiziksel aktivite düzeyi (600-3000 MET-dk/hafta) ve yeterli fiziksel aktivite düzeyi (>3000 MET-dk/hafta) olarak sınıflandırıldı. Bulgular: Yaşlı bireylerin ortalama UFAA skorunun 473,7±617,8 olduğu ve %74,2'sinin fiziksel olarak aktif olmadığı belirlendi. Kadın, 75 yaş ve üzeri, okuma-yazma bilmeyen, tedaviye uymazlarsa ne olabileceğini bilen, tıbbi beslenme tedavisine uymayan, diyabet hemşiresi ile görüşen, düzenli egzersiz yapan, diyabet tedavisinde fiziksel aktivitenin önemini bilen, diyabet tedavisine uygun ve önerildiği şekilde fiziksel aktivite yapan bireylerin UFAA puan ortalamasının daha yüksek olduğu görüldü (p<0,05). Sonuç: Bu araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre diyabetik geriatrik bireylerin fiziksel aktivite düzeylerinin yetersiz olduğu belirlendi.
