Determine the knowledge level of Family Physicians and Family Medicine Resident Physicians Regarding Prediabetes.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods:<\/jats:title>\n \n Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, and prospective study. Family Medicine Physicians and Resident Physicians who willingly accepted answering an evaluation on prediabetes through a previously validated instrument by expert personnel, were included. Descriptive statistics were calculated, and quantitative variables are expressed in terms of central tendency and dispersion measurements. Qualitative variables are expressed in percentages.
