Consenso sobre la detección y el manejo de la prediabetes. Grupo de Trabajo de Consensos y Guías Clínicas de la Sociedad Española de Diabetes / Consensus on the detection and management of prediabetes. Consensus and Clinical Guidelines Working Group of the Spanish Diabetes Society

En España, según datos del estudio Di@bet. es, un 13,8% de la población adulta padece diabetes y un 14,8% algún tipo de prediabetes (intolerancia a la glucosa, glucemia basal alterada o ambas). Puesto que la detección precoz de la prediabetes puede facilitar la puesta en marcha de medidas terapéuticas que eviten su progresión a diabetes, consideramos que las estrategias de prevención en las consultas de atención primaria y especializada deberían consensuarse. La detección de diabetes y prediabetes mediante un cuestionario específico (test de FINDRISC) y/o la determinación de la glucemia basal en pacientes de riesgo permiten detectar los pacientes con riesgo de desarrollar la enfermedad y es necesario considerar cómo debe ser su manejo clínico. La intervención sobre los estilos de vida puede reducir la progresión a diabetes o hacer retroceder un estado prediabético a la normalidad y es una intervención coste-efectiva. Algunos fármacos, como la metformina, también se han mostrado eficaces en reducir la progresión a diabetes aunque no son superiores a las intervenciones no farmacológicas. Finalmente, aunque no hay pruebas sólidas que apoyen la eficacia del cribado en términos de morbimortalidad, sí que se ha observado una mejora de los factores de riesgo cardiovascular. El Grupo de Trabajo de Consensos y Guías Clínicas de la Sociedad Española de Diabetes, ha elaborado unas recomendaciones que han sido consensuadas con la Sociedad Española de Endocrinología y Nutrición, la Sociedad Española de Endocrinología Pediátrica, la Sociedad Española de Farmacia Comunitaria, la Sociedad Española de Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria, la Sociedad Española de Médicos Generales, la Sociedad Española de Médicos de Atención Primaria, la Sociedad Española de Medicina Interna y la Asociación de Enfermería Comunitaria y la Red de Grupos de Estudio de la Diabetes en Atención Primaria

In Spain, according to the Di@bet. es study, 13.8% of the adult population suffers from diabetes and 14.8% from some form of prediabetes (impaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting glucose or both). Since early detection of prediabetes can facilitate the implementation of therapeutic measures to prevent its progression to diabetes, we believe that preventive strategies in primary care and specialized clinical settings should be agreed. Screening for diabetes and prediabetes using a specific questionnaire (FINDRISC) and/or the measurement of fasting plasma glucose in high risk patients leads to detecting patients at risk of developing diabetes and it is necessary to consider how they should be managed. The intervention in lifestyle can reduce the progression to diabetes and reverse a prediabetic state to normal and is a cost-effective intervention. Some drugs, such as metformin, have also been shown effective in reducing the progression to diabetes but are not superior to non-pharmacological INTERVENTIONS: Finally, an improvement in some cardiovascular risk factors has been observed although there is no strong evidence supporting the effectiveness of screening in terms of morbility and mortality. The Consensus and Clinical Guidelines Working Group of the Spanish Diabetes Society has issued some recommendations that have been agreed by the Sociedad Española de Endocrinología y Nutrición, Sociedad Española de Endocrinología Pediátrica, Sociedad Española de Farmacia Comunitaria, Sociedad Española de Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria, Sociedad Española de Médicos Generales, Sociedad Española de Médicos de Atención Primaria, Sociedad Española de Medicina Interna, Asociación de Enfermería Comunitaria and Red de Grupos de Estudio de la Diabetes en Atención Primaria
