Prevention of Microvascular Complications of Diabetes

Abstract
Microvascular complications of diabetes present a significant challenge due to their diverse presentations, significant morbidity, and as strong predictors of cardiovascular disease. Prevention and management strategies should focus on lifestyle modification, education and awareness, systematic screening for early complications, and intensive management of modifiable risk factors. This review discusses the microvascular complications of diabetes, including diabetic retinopathy, diabetic kidney disease, and diabetic neuropathy, and provides best practice clinical care recommendations to guide health care professionals to better manage people with these conditions.
