RESUMO
OBJETIVOS: Evaluar el control del paciente con diabetes mellitus (DM) en atención primaria(AP), analizando el sistema de registro informático del Sevicio de Salud de Castilla-La Mancha(SESCAM). MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Muestra de 938 pacientes con diagnóstico de DM sobre 14.733 individuos incluidos en el año 2009 en el registro informático del SESCAM del área Mancha Centro (Turriano), que comprende 25 centros de AP. Se analizaron distintos parámetros clínicos y analíticos: hemoglobina glicosilada (HbA1c), colesterol total (CT), presión arterial (PA) e índice de masa corporal(IMC), así como el número de procesos por paciente/año: análisis de HbA1c y lípidos, controles de PA, monitorizaciones de pie diabético y revisiones oculares. RESULTADOS: La prevalencia de diabetes conocida fue del 6,36% en la población general. El 54%de los pacientes presentaron una HbA1c < 7%, y el 24,1%, > 8%. El 79% asociaban sobrepeso u obesidad. El 38% eran hipertensos. No se realizó control de CT en el 16% de los individuos, obteniendo valores por debajo de 200 mg/dl en el 45%. Se registró menos de una revisión de pie al año, ninguna revisión ocular, ni control de microalbuminuria. CONCLUSIONES: El sistema «Turriano» es eficaz en el registro de pacientes con diabetes. La mayoría de los pacientes de nuestro estudio presentan un buen control metabólico y de los factores de riesgo cardiovascular
AIMS: To determine the clinical control of patients with diabetes in Primary Care in the a Mancha Centro area (Castile-La Mancha region).MATERIAL AND METHODS: The computerised records system of the Regional Health Service in Castile-La Mancha (Turriano) included 14,733 patients in 2009, in which 938 patients with diabetes were identified in the 25 centres belonging to La Mancha Centro area. Several parameters were collected: HbA1c, total cholesterol, blood pressure, and body mass index (BMI). The number of process per patient/year also were also collected, including number of: HbA1c, total cholesterol, blood pressure controls, feet controls, and eyes controls. RESULTS: Diabetes prevalence was 6.36% of the general population. The HbA1c was measured on average once a year. An HbA1c under 7 mg/dL was found in 54% of patients, and greater than 8 mg/dL in 24.1% of them. The large majority (79%) of patients with diabetes were overweight or obese. Hypertension was found in 40% of the patients. Total cholesterol was not controlled in 16% of patients; 45% had a total cholesterol under 200 mg/dL. Less than one check-up of the feet was done, and no eye control nor microalbuminuria were registered. CONCLUSIONS: The Turriano system is effective for recording the diabetic population. Most patients in our study showed good metabolic control as well as of cardiovascular risk factors
