1 in 13 Americans have diabetes, and 1 in 4 have pre-diabetes.

All healthcare professionals will care for patients with diabetes, pre-diabetes or metabolic syndrome on a daily basis. Keeping up to date on new treatment options and standards is important as management of diabetes becomes more complex. You are involved in diabetes prevention, care, and management. You should have a good understanding of diabetes and its treatment.

You can increase your understanding of diabetes and pre-diabetes by attending this seminar. You will leave with an in-depth understanding of the latest approaches in assessing and treating patients with diabetes, as well as new skills to apply for those at risk for diabetes.

Laurie Klipfel will show you how to improve the care you give to diabetes patients.

1. State diagnostic criteria for diabetes and understand the differences between Type 1, Type 2 and pregnancy induced (gestational) diabetes.
2. Evaluate metabolic syndrome (“the deadly quartet”: diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and obesity) and pre-diabetes.
3. Recognize the symptoms of hyper- and hypoglycemia and use current research for optimal pharmacologic and non-pharmacological treatment based on ADA Standards of Care and AADE-7™ behavioral goals.
4. Discuss the basal/bolus concept of insulin administration including various insulin administration schedules to achieve optimal control.
5. Assess risk and employ prevention/treatment techniques for acute and chronic complications, including how to address weight issues.
6. Utilize current research to support the nationwide impetus for tight glycemic control for hospitalized patients, including management strategies during illness or surgery.
7. Explain what to do when a patient is wearing an insulin pump.
8. Analyze motivational techniques to assist patients to progress from knowing to doing.
9. Describe new treatment therapies and what is on the horizon.
