Thesis
A community based approach to glucose optimisation for type 2 diabetes
- Abstract:
-
Background: Attaining optimal glucose control in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is essential to minimise complications, but difficult to achieve in practice with declining β-cell function in patients. Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of a protocol-led, treat-to-target approach emphasising earlier oral hypoglycaemic agent (OHA) combination and insulin use to target basal and prandial glucose in primary care.
