Abstract

Prediabetes is an important topic for the general practitioners due to its increasing prevalence and a new option to bill the code for care for a prediabetic patient. The prevalence of prediabetes in the Czech Republic based on HbA1c measurement was 26.6% in men and 25,3% in women in a population aged 25-64.

We present a review that focuses on prediabetes epidemiology, diagnostic options and risk factors with regard to the Czech Republic and prediabetes complications and treatment options.
