Globally, 415 million (340-536 million) people have diabetes in 2015 with regional prevalence of 8.8% (7.2-11.4%) by 2040 this figure will expect rise to 642 million (521-829 million) with predicted prevalence rate of 10.4% (8.5-13.5%) and more than 22 million people in the African Region; by 2040 this figure will almost double (IDF, 2015).The statistical result of World health organization estimated that the number of cases of diabetics in Ethiopia to be about 796,000 in 2000, and projected that it would increase to about 1,820,000 by the year 2030 (WHO, Diabetes estimates and Projections, 2003).But,according to the report of international diabetes federation atlas in 2017 there were around 2,567,900 [1,094,000-3,795,400] million diabetes cases in Ethiopia in 2017 (IDF atlas, 2017).
