“…É importante encontrar um equilibrio nos vários momentos de possível prevenção, especialmente, naqueles países como a India e o Paquistão em que o encontro com a diabetes, significa simplesmente abrir a porta á pobreza, pois entre 69-73 % dos custos em saúde são privados, a Prevenção Quaternária é fundamental na gestão de toda esta problemática. (Kalra, 2014)…”

RESUMOO mar de pseudo-doenças, incidentalomas, anormalidades e disfunções, parece não ter fim, bem como os meios de diagnóstico cada vez mais sofisticados, mais sensíveis, sem correlação com sintomas clinicos, queixas subjectivas, ou história natural da doença, tem sido chamado "reservatório de doenças ou pseudo doenças" e parece alimentar produtos, serviços e tecnologias com grande impacto nas economias do nosso tempo.Apesar da procura da saúde perfeita, tornada moda e obrigação cívica, escrutinando permanentemente doenças hipotéticas e factores de risco que as ampliam enormemente, subjectivamente, as pessoas sentem-se mais doentes ! Barski, em 1988, chamou-lhe o "paradoxo da saúde"! A intensa medicalização da vida diária, acaba por transformar gente saudável em doentes crónicos ! A Medicina Preventiva, actual, é bastante diferente daquela que existiu no séc. XX, muito ampliada pelos medos, alinha-se com a industria da saúde num sem fim de exames, actos clinicos, observações que alimentam mercados que valem biliões de dolares como os da da ritalina e oxycodona! A prevenção quaternária veio nos últimos anos dar uma esperança a todos aqueles que desejam um outro olhar para a problemática da saúde/ doença. Palavras chave: prevenção quaternária; medicina preventiva ABSTRACTThe quaternary prevention and the iceberg of the pseudo-diseases, incidentalomas and afins! The sea of pseudo-diseases, incidentalomas, abnormalities and dysfunctions, seems to have no end, as well as increasingly sophisticated, more sensitive means of diagnosis, without correlation with clinical symptoms, subjective complaints, or natural history of the disease, has been called "reservoir of diseases or pseudo diseases" and seems to feed products, services and technologies with great impact on the economies of our time.

“…Moreover, the unwarranted use of 'labels' such as GDM may have psychosocial ramifications or may result in marital disharmony and domestic discord. This phenomenon is commonly encountered in certain gender-sensitive cultures of South Asia (16). Overtreatment using novel glucose-lowering drugs, which prescribers are less familiar with, may be associated with avoidable adverse events.…”

“…SAFES and its member organizations contribute to the cause of quaternary prevention by organizing biennial South Asian summits, national endocrine conferences, and other CMEs of high academic standard standing.

The SLDC has trained more than 15,000 health sector workers on the prevention and treatment of diabetes.…”

Religion has been proposed as a means of enhancing patient and community acceptance of diabetes and cultural specific motivational strategies to improve diabetes care. Sikhism is a young and vibrant religion, spread across the world and the Holy Scripture Sri Guru Granth Sahib (SGGS) is regarded as the living Guru by all Sikhs. The three key pillars of Sikhism are Kirat Karni (honest living), Vand Chakna (sharing with others) and Naam Japna (focus on God). They can help encourage the diabetes care provider, patient and community to engage in lifestyle modification, shared responsibility, positive thinking and stress management. The verses (Sabads) from the SGGS, with their timeless relevance, span the entire spectrum of diabetes care, from primordial and primary, to secondary and tertiary prevention. They can provide us with guidance towards a holistic approach towards health and lifestyle related diseases as diabetes. The SGGS suggests that good actions are based on one's body and highlights the relevance of mind-body interactions and entraining the mind to cultivate healthy living habits. The ethics of sharing, community and inclusiveness all lay emphasis on the need for global and unified efforts to manage and reduce the burden of the diabetes pandemic.
