dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The fact that diabetes has become one of the emergency states of the century and the future, makes primary protection important in the prevention of diabetes. In this important case, it is considered that it is important for nurses to participate in chronic disease screening in primary prevention. With this study, it was aimed to determine the diabetes risk status of the individuals living in Corum/Turkey and to establish a basis for the precautions to be taken in the primary prevention of diabetes prevention. Materials and methods: This study was descriptive, cross-sectional. The sample of this study consisted of 1020 adults who are over 18 years of age who has not diabetes and volunteered to participate in the study. Individual Recognition Form and Finnish Diabetes Risk Score (FINDRISC) were used as data collection tools. Results: According to the obtained FINDRISC scores of participating individuals; it was determined that mean score of risk of developing diabetes within ten years was 10.54 +/- 6.204 (min- maks=0-26) and participants had 24.9% had high-very high risk. The mean FINDRISC score was found to be higher in female, aged over 64, married, low educated, unemployed, living with children, poor income and participants who quitted smoking and alcohol (p<0.05). It was analyzed that the comparison between participants' blood pressure values and the risk status of FINDRISC had a statistically significant relationship (p<0.05). Participants were found to have a significant positive correlation between FINDRISC total risk scores and systolic (r = 0.349, p = 0.000) and diastolic (r = 0.255, p = 0.000) blood pressure levels. Conclusion: Approximately one in eleven adults who participated in the study had very high risk of developing diabetes. In order to minimize the risk of developing diabetes, training programs to improve public health should be planned and screening studies should be increased.
