By completing this educational activity, the participant should be better able to:1. Integrate evidence-based guidelines for screening of diabetic
patients into practice, including routine testing of A1C, microalbumin, and LDL cholesterol.
2. Discuss new treatment options available in diabetes, such as once-weekly medications.
3. Incorporate various other screening modalities for diabetic patients to avoid complications, including foot and eye screening and recognize the importance of achieving control to avoid these complications.
4. Discuss different goals for various patient populations.

Pre-Diabetes
3.2 Refer patients with prediabetes to an intensive behavioral lifestyle intervention program modeled on the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) to achieve and maintain loss of 7% of initial body weight and increase moderate-intensity physical activity (such as brisk walking) to at least 150 min/week.
3.3 Based on patient preference, technology-assisted diabetes prevention interventions may be effective in preventing type 2 diabetes and should be considered.
Section 3: Prevention and Delay of Type 2 Diabetes
3.5 Metformin therapy for prevention of type 2 diabetes should be considered in those with prediabetes, especially for those with BMI >35 kg/m2, those aged >60 years, and women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus.
3.6 Long-term use of metformin may be associated with biochemical vitamin B12 deficiency, and periodic measurement of vitamin B12 levels should be considered in metformin-treated patients, especially in those with anemia or peripheral neuropathy.
3.7 Prediabetes is associated with heightened cardiovascular risk; therefore, screening for and treatment of modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease is suggested.
Prevention and Delay of Type 2 Diabetes
Criteria for the diagnosis of diabetes changed◦ Include two abnormal test results from the
same sample (i.e., fasting plasma glucose and A1C from same sample).
◦ Or 2 separate test samples. Recommended that the second test be performed without delay
If a patient meets the diabetes criterion of the A1C (two results >6.5%) but not FPG (>126 mg/dL), that person should nevertheless be considered to have diabetes

7. Diabetes Technology
158 adults who had had type 2 diabetes for a median of 17 years age 35 to 79 years (mean, 60 years), were receiving multiple daily injections of insulin, and had hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) levels of 7.5% to 9.9% (mean, 8.5%).
Mean HbA1C levels decreased to 7.7% in the CGM group and 8.0% in the control group at 24 weeks (P = 0.022). The groups did not differ meaningfully in CGM-measured hypoglycemia or quality-of-life outcomes. The CGM group averaged 6.7 days (SD, 0.9) of CGM use per week.
Limitation: 6-month follow-up

Glucose-lowering Medication in Type 2 Diabetes: Overall Approach
American Diabetes Association, Diabetes Care, 2019;42:S90-S102
To align with the ADA-EASD consensus report, the approach to injectable medication therapy was revised
(Fig. 9.2). A recommendation that, for most patients who need the greater efficacy of an injectable medication, a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist should be the first choice, ahead of insulin.

10.4 For individuals with diabetes and hypertension at higher cardiovascular risk (existing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk >15%), a blood pressure target of <130/80 mmHg may be appropriate, if it can be safely attained
10.5 For individuals with diabetes and hypertension at lower risk for cardiovascular disease (10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk, 15%), treat to a blood pressure target of <140/90 mmHg

Use aspirin therapy (75–162 mg/day) as a secondary prevention strategy in those with diabetes and a history of ASCVD.
For patients with ASCVD and documented aspirin allergy, clopidogrel (75 mg/day) should be used.
Dual antiplatelet therapy (with low-dose aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor) is reasonable for a year after an acute coronary syndrome A and may have benefits beyond this period. B
Aspirin therapy (75–162 mg/day) may be considered as a primary prevention strategy in those with diabetes who are at increased cardiovascular risk, after a with the patient on the benefits versus increased risk of bleeding.

Motivational Interviewing
Get permission to proceed Open-ended (starting) questions (to get the ball rolling) “How have you been doing with checking your blood sugar?” “What’s been going on since we last saw each other?”
Reflective listening (keep it rolling) “It sounds like you are nervous about using insulin.”
Summarizing (stop, assess, move on) Elicit self-motivational statements “What concerns you about your A1C number?”
You provide information, client interprets it
