Diabetes mellitus (DM) affects millions of people worldwide and represents an important public health problem, being associated with several complications, among which diabetic kidney disease (DRD) stands out. DRD is part of the group of microvascular complications that represent the main cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients entering dialysis programs. In adults, DRD occurs in 20–40% of people with diabetes, and its presence significantly increases cardiovascular risk and healthcare costs. The objective of this study is to create a protocol on DRD, generating behavior algorithms to guide health professionals at all levels of care through a literature review on updates in pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment. The study was carried out through an integrative literature review, based on searches in the PubMed and LILACS databases, with the terms “DIABETIC KIDNEY DISEASE” AND “DIAGNOSIS”; “DIABETIC KIDNEY DISEASE” AND “TREATMENT”; “DIABETIC KIDNEY DISEASE” AND “DIAGNOSIS” AND “TREATMENT” and their correlates in Portuguese. Repeated studies, case reports, letters to the editor, comments and studies not available in English or Portuguese were excluded. The present work also included observational and descriptive studies, literature reviews and systematic reviews. In addition, the study is based on data from work carried out by the endocrinology and diabetes research group at the Federal University of Pará. After reviewing the literature, the selected information served as the basis for the construction of a clinical protocol regarding screening, diagnosis, and treatment of diabetes kidney disease. The clinical applicability of our protocol consists of providing a tool, not only for the specialist, but for the general practitioner in primary, secondary and tertiary care, with the aim of enabling effective care for patients with diabetic kidney disease. Thus, the adoption by specialist or general medical professionals of a “PROTOCOL FOR DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF DIABETES KIDNEY DISEASE” appears as a promising resource in the approach to individuals affected by this comorbidity.
