OBJECTIVE: to investigate the possible recurrence of cases of hyperglycemia and associated factors for the development of DM in patients treated at UBS Bela Vista in the city of Trindade - Goiás, aiming at the prevention and promotion of patients' health. METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out, with a qualitative and quantitative character. The study was carried out at the Bela Vista Basic Health Unit, located in Trindade-GO, with 26 patients over 18 years of age. The population consisted of 26 patients over 18 years of age. RESULTS: The results showed that 50% of the participants had a low risk, 30.77% slightly moderate and 11.54% moderate, for the development of DM. The Findrisc questionnaire revealed that such risks are related to family history, inadequate eating habits and not performing physical exercises, indicating that participants are likely to develop DM in the future.
