Popis: We are in the midst of an epidemic of diabetes, and the prevalence appears to be especially marked within Delaware. To prevent tragic long-term complications of diabetes, and to minimize the enormous costs associated with treating them, an emphasis must be placed on the early diagnosis and aggressive management of diabetes. The changes in the classification, diagnosis and screening for diabetes should help to redirect the focus to one of preventive care.
