Materials and methods –Diabetes mellitus is now an increasing health concern for both urban as well as rural populations of India. In this study we evaluated the prevalence of various microvascular and macro vascular complications in patients of OPD/IPD of Bundelkhand Medical College, Sagar MP. The study conducted from Apr 2014- Sept 2014.Total 1970 patients were included in the study by random sampling. Detailed history, clinical examinations, anthropometric measurements and biochemical examinations were done. American Diabetes Association criteria (ADA) were used for diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and standard definitions were used to define the diabetic patients. Data were analysed by SPSS software version 12. Results- Among the 1970 patients studied 1025 (52%), patients were male & 945(48%), patients were female. Out of which 270 patients were diabetic (13.7%). The associated diabetic comlications was as followsNeuropathy (n=70, 25.9%), Nephropathy (n=43, 15,5%), Coronary artery disease CAD (n=42%, 15.5), Retinopathy (n=22 ,8.1%), Peripheral vascular disease (n=15, 5.5%), Cerebrovascular accidents (n=10, 3.7%). Along with the complications we have also observed a rising trend in the diabetic complications associated with increased duration of illness as well as persistently high blood sugar levels. Conclusions- As the complications of diabetes are higher with higher blood sugars levels and long duration of diabetes hence the disease needs to be diagnosed and treated as early as possible by doing routine screening for diabetes & diabetes awareness programme should be there for early diagnosis of the disease and treatment to prevent complications.
