Integrating Lifestyle Therapy for Diabetes Prevention Into Primary Care
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Pre-Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome, Type 2 Diabetes
In brief
An educational intervention in the General Medicine Clinic aimed at both primary care providers (PCPs) and their patients with metabolic syndrome/pre-diabetes (MetSyn/PDM). Improving PCPs ability to detect and manage MetSyn/PDM, as measured by the increased incorporation of MetSyn/PDM into PCPs care plan, and increasing patients' awareness of healthy lifestyle behaviors results in positive patient health behaviors and outcomes.
