Description: AIM: To analyze diabetes risk screening using the Findrisc questionnaire, performed in Spanish community pharmacies (CP) since 2014. METHODS: Descriptive cumulative study of the results of campaigns from Global Diabetes Day, in 2014, 2016-2018, 2020 and 2021. SUBJECTS: Users ≥18 years not diagnosed with diabetes with signed consent. VARIABLES: Findrisc test score, mean (m) and standard deviation (SD) and subjects at risk intervals, n (%). Demographic (sex, age) and anthropometric variables, body mass index (BMI) (kg/m(2)), waist circumference (cm), capillary glycaemia (SD) (mg/dL). RESULTS: A total of 1146 pharmacists took part; 12,402 users. A total of 8799 (70.9%) had BMI ≥25 kg/m(2); 7366 (59.4%) were taking anti-hypertensives, 6047 (48.8%) with excessive abdominal circumference. In total, 5962 (48.0%) had a family history of diabetes. Average risk (Findrisc score) was 11.3 (4.6), without any sex differences (P>0.05). The number of subjects with high/very high risk (F≥15) was 3107 (25.0%) without any sex differences (P>0.05). The high/very high risk increased with age, from 282 (15.1%) people aged 45 to 54 up to 1695 (40.1%) people aged >64. A total of 1762 (14.2%) were referred to the doctor. There are no data on the result. Average interview time: 10.3 (5.3) minutes, no differences between sexes (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: One quarter of those surveyed had a high/very high risk and one in seven were referred to the doctor. The most prevalent risk factors were BMI, hypertension, abdominal circumference and family history of diabetes. Interprofessional communication should be improved as no result was obtained from referrals to the doctor.
