BACKGROUND Quality of life (QOL) measures have become a vital and frequently essential fragments to appraise health-care outcomes and is a powerful tool to determine the impact of healthcare as well as personal care for the population who are surviving with chronic diseases especially when ultimate cure for that specific disease is not conceived.

The OA was categorised into four criteria and the diabetics with OA (hand) were mostly satisfied with the following domains of QOL: Material & hand was 83 (± 2.33) and the least mean of QOL was 80.77 (± 2.9) found among diabetics with OA and radiological physical wellbeing (81.5 %), relationship with other people (56.9 %), personal development and fulfilments (72.6 %) and independence (86.2 %) [ Table 1]. Nevertheless, among the study participants with OA (hand) mixed response were shared for social, community and civic activities domain (73.8 %) and recreation domain (66.2 %) [ Table 1]. ...Context 2

Most of the study participants with OA (knee) had a mixed response for various domains of QOL except relationship with other people where the participant's response was mainly satisfactory (Table 1). More than 50 % of the diabetic participants with OA (knee and hand) had mixed response to domains of relationship with other people and personal development and fulfilments but negative responses for various other domains were higher e.g. 26 % of participants were un-happy with social, community and civic activities and 26.1 % participants responded to have terrible experience with recreation domain of QOL [ Table 1]. ...Context 4

The findings of the study revealed significant association between QOL and its 6 domains of the scale suggesting there is lower scores or increased difficulty in study subjects with OA and DM together compared to those with DM alone (Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3). Similar kind of findings has been found in the recent and past studies performed among the chronic disease sufferers. ...Context 7

While timely management is important to minimize the consequences of knee OA, information on the utilization of healthcare services among this population remains limited. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to determine the healthcare utilization and its asso...
