Objectives To evaluate the effectiveness of the systematic application of the comprehensive care protocol in people who debut in DM2 and associated comorbidities, applied during 3 months in primary care, in terms of quality of life related to Health, weigh loss and Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) compared to people who receive normal practice. Secondary: To evaluate the effectiveness of the systematic application of the comprehensive care protocol of DM and associated comorbidities, during 3 months in primary care, in the parameters: Evolution of the specific biological parameters: TA, BMI, lipid profile, abdominal perimeter. Evolution of the consumption of drugs. Compliance with dietary recommendations. Increase in physical activity. Satisfaction / opinion of the participants. According to a questionnaire of user satisfaction of the ICS adapted to our study. Health frequentation in Primary Care Centers. Methods and Analysis Study Design: A quantitative quasi-experimental design, multicenter, one-year follow-up, comparing a group of patients with a recent DM2 debut (less than 5 months) treated according to the comprehensive care protocol in DM2 with comorbidities, the intervention (IG), with a group of similar characteristics who receive the usual care (CG). The response variables will be evaluated before starting the care according to protocol, after (3 months) and at 6 and 12 months of initiating the intervention, in both groups. Scope of the study: It will be developed in 10 urban primary care health centers, in 5 centers the intervention will be carried out and in 5 the controls will be selected. The allocation of a center as an intervention or comparison will be random. In the calculation of the sample the cluster effect attributable to this design has been considered. Subjects of the study: The study population will consist of patients attended in the selected Primary Care Centers with a new diagnosis of DM2 (less than 5 months from the debut) that present comorbidity with an other chronic cardiovascular condition (Hypertension, dyslipidemia and/or obesity). Will be excluded COPD and IC, because they are attended with a specific protocol of care.
