As mudanças sócio-económicas no último século levaram a alterações importantes do estilo de vida, com um consequente aumento da incidência de diabetes a nível mundial, levando a Organização Mundial de Saúde a considerar a doença uma epidemia global. A diabetes tem repercussões importantes a nível de vários órgãos e sistemas, com impacto na sáude e qualidade de vida. Entre as várias complicações associadas à doença temos as complicações a nível do sistema nervoso, distinguindo-se entre Neuropatia Sensitivo-motora e Neuropatia Autonómica.
A Neuropatia Autonómica Diabética pode afectar o sistema cardiovascular, o sistema gastrointestinal, o sistema urogenital e a função sudomotora. Com este trabalho pretende-se ter uma abordagem virada para a prática clínica, incidindo-se na clínica e epidemiologia das várias formas de Neuropatia Autonómica, métodos de diagnóstico e terapêutica.
