Resumo: | In the last years there was an increasing concern about driving and some medical conditions. Diabetes is one of the diseases associated with road traffic accidents. This increased risk is associated with hypoglycemia and diabetes complications such as: retinopathy, cataracts and neuropathy. In order to avoid car crashes patients must follow some rules like carrying some sugar source in their vehicle, always measure blood glycemia before start driving, never begin an extended drive with blood glucose less than 90 mg/dl without prophylactic carbohydrate consumption, stop the vehicle as soon any of the symptoms of low blood glucose are experienced and measure and treat the blood glucose level. In Portugal there are new rules for diabetic drivers since January 2013. Group 1 drivers are considerer unfit to drive if they have severe or recurrent hypoglycemia. Group 2 drivers need to present a medical report certificating they have good diabetes control, have not had any severe or recurrent hypoglycemia in the last twelve months and there aren’t anyother diabetes complications. |

Diabetes and Driving: Evidence and RecommendationsDiabetes e Condução: Evidência e RecomendaçõesIn the last years there was an increasing concern about driving and some medical conditions. Diabetes is one of the diseases associated with road traffic accidents. This increased risk is associated with hypoglycemia and diabetes complications such as: retinopathy, cataracts and neuropathy. In order to avoid car crashes patients must follow some rules like carrying some sugar source in their vehicle, always measure blood glycemia before start driving, never begin an extended drive with blood glucose less than 90 mg/dl without prophylactic carbohydrate consumption, stop the vehicle as soon any of the symptoms of low blood glucose are experienced and measure and treat the blood glucose level.

Group 2 drivers need to present a medical report certificating they have good diabetes control, have not had any severe or recurrent hypoglycemia in the last twelve months and there aren’t anyother diabetes complications.Nos últimos anos tem-se registado um aumento da preocupação com a condução e algumas condições médicas. A Diabetes Mellitus é uma das patologias associadas ao aumento do risco para a condução. Este risco resulta da ocorrência de hipoglicemia e das complicações da diabetes, como a retinopatia, a formação de cataratas e a neuropatia. Para evitar a ocorrência de acidentes, os doentes diabéticos devem cumprir algumas regras, como ter uma fonte de açúcar no carro, medir sempre a glicemia capilar antes de cada período de condução, nunca iniciar a condução com valor de glicemia capilar inferior a 90 mg/dl sem ingerir hidratos de carbono de forma profilática, parar assim que surjam sintomas de hipoglicemia, medir a glicemia capilar e tratar a hipoglicemia. Em Portugal, existemdesde Janeiro de 2013 novas regras para os condutores diabéticos. Os condutores do grupo 1 são considerados inaptos para a condução se apresentarem hipoglicemia grave ou recorrente. Os condutores do grupo 2 devem apresentar um relatório que comprove o bom controlo metabólico, a não ocorrência de episódios de hipoglicemia grave e que não existam outras complicações da diabetes.Ordem dos Médicos2013-08-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/1991oai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/1991Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 26 No. 4 (2013): July-August; 428-432Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 26 N.º 4 (2013): Julho-Agosto; 428-4321646-07580870-399Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/1991https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/1991/3717Moniz, Catarina SenraSerra, Filipa AlvesFerreira, Rute CostaVasconcelos, CarlosSaraiva, António Machadoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-12-20T10:59:41Zoai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/1991Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:17:31.134618Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
