Peripheral neuropathy defined as a set of clinical or subclinical symptoms that would indicate neural dysfunction in patients with diabetes mellitus. In its natural history, diabetes accompanied by multiple chronic complications, with neuropathy being the most frequent and precocious of these, it estimated that it is present in 60 to 70% of patients; it is a frequent complication, since it found in two of every three diabetics at the time of the examination. This is a non-experimental, descriptive, analytical, cross-sectional and prospective quantitative study to identify the associated risk factors. The sample consisted of 80 patients who met the inclusion criteria. The development of diabetic neuropathy in the patients evaluated is 42.5%, of which 12 (15%) of the patients belong to the male sex and 22 (27.5%) belong to the female sex. The female sex had more participation in the study with a percentage of 73.8%, compared to the male sex with 26.3%. Socio-demographic risk factors in which we found statistical association with the development of diabetic neuropathy are; the degree of instruction, time and limit of evolution of diabetes and biochemical factors with statistical association: the altered blood glucose and patients with dyslipidemia. While no statistical association was found with the clinical risk factors.
