Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is studied as a pathology that over time grows prevalently accompanied by metabolic disorders such as metabolic syndrome and arterial hypertension which produces acute and chronic disorders which can produce problems in the short and long term up to come to death. In our prospective, descriptive and case-control research study, we have the following objectives: General: Assess the risk of developing type 2 Diabetes Mellitus by applying the Finnish Diabetes Risk Score Scale (Findrisk) in patients who attend to the # 15 Railway Health Center, and the Specific: Establish the score of the Finnish Diabetes Risk Rating Scale (Findrisc) in the timely diagnosis of type Diabetes Identify risk factors in relation to Diabetes Mellitus associated with patients who attend to external consultation of the Ferroviaria health center. To determine the risk of suffering from Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in the population of Cdla Ferroviaria. The application of the Findrisk Test used shows that of 254 patients surveyed they produced the following results: It was determined that the majority of the people presented a high risk 31.10% (n = 79), a slightly elevated risk 24.80% (n = 63), moderate 23.62% (n = 60), low level 11.81% (n = 30) and very high 8.27% (n = 21). In other words, in a period of 10 years a high percentage of the population will suffer from Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, which is a considerable figure, therefore it can be modified based on the lifestyle of these patients with prevention.
