Background.
The burden of noncommunicable disease (NCD) in Africa is on a remarkable rise exacerbating the poor public health status affected by the existing but yet unsolved communicable disease.
In Ethiopia, there is a paucity of evidence regarding prevalence and risk factors to NCD.
Objective.
This study sought to determine the prevalence of risk factors of NCDs, prevalence of DM and HTN, and risk factors associated with diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension (HTN).
Method.
This is an institution based cross-sectional study conducted on a sample of 411 clients attending a university-based comprehensive specialized hospital in Southern Ethiopia.
The data was collected by using a pretested interviewer-administered questionnaire and observational checklist.
Frequency, proportions, bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted using SPSS software version 20.
Result.
We identified 64.2% of the clients had at least one of the risk factors to the NCDs.
One-third (33.3%) had physical inactivity, whereas 20.2% had a BMI of ≥ 25%.
The prevalence of DM and HTN was 12.2% and 10.5%, respectively.
The multivariate analysis demonstrated that age ≥ 60 years, physical inactivity, higher BMI, and cigarette smoking were risk factors for at least one of the NCDs.
Conclusion.
The prevalence of DM and prevalence of HTN were high.
The magnitudes of risk factors to NCDs among the study population were substantial.
Higher BMI, physical inactivity, low fruit and vegetable consumption, alcohol use, khat chewing, and cigarette smoking were among the prevailing risk factors identified.
