Study Notes
Diabetes Prevention Strategies
- Technology-assisted diabetes prevention interventions are recommended based on patient preference, showing effectiveness in preventing type 2 diabetes.
- Diabetes prevention programs are cost-effective and should be covered by third-party payers.
Lifestyle Intervention Outcomes
- The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) trial found a 58% reduction in type 2 diabetes incidence over three years with intensive lifestyle interventions.
- Long-term studies, including the Da Qing and Finnish Diabetes Prevention Studies, report reductions in the conversion to type 2 diabetes by 39% at 30 years and 43% at 7 years, respectively.
Physical Activity Recommendations
- Adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes should engage in 2-3 resistance exercise sessions per week on nonconsecutive days to enhance fitness.
- Individuals should minimize sedentary time, with a recommendation to interrupt prolonged sitting every 30 minutes for improved blood glucose levels.
- Older adults with diabetes should perform flexibility and balance training 2-3 times per week, including activities like yoga and tai chi.
Screening for Mental Health
- Annual screening for anxiety is advised for individuals with diabetes who express worries related to complications or demonstrate avoidance behaviors.
Pharmacologic Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes
- Metformin is the preferred first-line medication for type 2 diabetes treatment and should be continued as tolerated.
- Combination therapy may be initiated early to prevent treatment failure in some patients, particularly when ongoing catabolism or symptoms of hyperglycemia are evident.
Management of Comorbidities
- Metabolic surgery is a consideration for adults with type 2 diabetes and specific BMI ranges who do not achieve lasting improvement through nonsurgical methods.
- Long-term nutritional monitoring and support are essential following metabolic surgery.
Treatment Goals with Hypertension
- Blood pressure targets should be personalized through shared decision-making for patients with diabetes and hypertension.
- Higher cardiovascular risk individuals should aim for blood pressure below 130/80 mmHg, while those at lower risk can treat to below 140/90 mmHg.
Cardiovascular Risk Management
- Screening for cardiovascular disease risk is critical in patients with diabetes, with management strategies tailored based on specific risk factors and existing conditions.
