Zusammenfassung

Der Begriff der diabetischen Neuropathie umfasst Mono- und Polyneuropathieformen, die diabetische Radikulopathie und die autonome Neuropathie. Die Leitlinienempfehlungen beschreiben die klinischen Symptome und diagnostischen Möglichkeiten, sowie die Therapiemaßnahmen insbesondere bei der schmerzhaften Form der sensomotorischen Neuropathie.

Summary

These are the guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of diabetic neuropathy. This diabetic late complication comprises a number of mono- and polyneuropathies, plexopathies, radiculopathies and autonomic neuropathy. The position statement summarizes characteristic clinical symptoms and techniques for diagnostic assessment of diabetic neuropathy. Recommendations for the therapeutic management of diabetic neuropathy, especially for the control of pain in sensomotoric neuropathy, are provided.
