“…For those with an average baseline HbA1c level greater than 8%, diabetes education resulted in a greater HbA1c decrease. 21 Contrary to the initial hypothesis, our study failed to demonstrate the benefit of pharmacist intervention on DR compared to controls, and several factors/limitations could help explain this anomaly. First, individuals in the intervention group had a longer duration of diabetes and higher starting HbA1c numbers.…”

There are three major microvascular complications of diabetes, retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy, among which diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common. Several studies suggest that the Hispanic/LatinX population exhibit the highest cases of both diabetes and DR. Strategies aimed at reducing risk factors that could minimize the likelihood of DR development or progression could be beneficial. This retrospective study assessed DR in the Hispanic/LatinX population in pharmacist-managed cardiovascular risk reduction services. A chart review was conducted for 60 individuals who visited clinics led by both a pharmacist and a primary care physician (intervention group) and 178 individuals who saw physicians only (control group). Demographics, metabolic parameters, DR severity, and pharmacist appointment data were collected. The highest benefit of pharmacist intervention was observed in terms of a greater but insignificant decrease in HbA1c; however, there was no benefit of pharmacist’s intervention on DR in general, likely due to the longer duration of diabetes and higher HbA1c at the beginning of the study. When the DR progression was examined based on the frequency of pharmacy visits, individuals who met a pharmacist more than two times per year showed more stable and lesser worsening of DR. Overall, our studies suggest that pharmacist intervention could benefit retinopathy outcome; however, well-known determinants of DR such as good glycemic control and duration of diabetes still play a critical role, in addition to challenges in receiving healthcare by the Hispanic/LatinX population. Future strategies in a prospective manner could help retinopathy outcomes in these at-risk patient populations.

“…There was a decrease in A1C levels among 70.2% of the participants despite the educational intervention lasting a total of only 8 hours. The study findings correspond with other literature regarding the benefit of diabetic education programs on A1C reduction (Chrvala et al, 2016; Lyon et al, 2018). Results also support the benefit of an educational intervention for weight reduction among patients with diabetes.…”

“…Evidence-based practice demonstrates the importance of decreasing the burden on the healthcare system by maintaining and developing better glycemic control for patients with diabetes (Chrvala et al, 2016; Lyon et al, 2018). Diabetic education programs have been utilized in the transformation of clinical guidelines.…”

“…Diabetic education programs have been used to aid in the prevention of secondary complications and to improve glycemic control associated with this chronic illness. Researchers have found that patients with 10 or more hours of diabetic education are more likely to realize a signifi cant decrease in A1C levels (Chrvala et al, 2016;Lyon et al, 2018). Diabetic education programs consist of various elements that are interlinked to better manage the disease.…”

:Helping patients control diabetes mellitus (DM) and minimize complications is the top priority for care of patients with diabetes. A retrospective review of 86 charts was conducted to investigate the impact of an 8-hour diabetic education program on glycemic control and weight in adults with type 2 DM. Hemoglobin A1C levels and weights were documented pre- and postintervention. Patients participating in the program demonstrated decreased levels of mean A1C and mean weight postintervention. Spiritual care for people living with diabetes and the use of continuous glucose monitors to improve disease management are discussed.

“…É uma boa prática se realizar uma investigação cardiológica nos pacientes com mais de 40 anos que apresentem dor epigástrica, náusea e vômitos (2). Não esquecer de realizar um estudo da coagulação, sobretudo no paciente idoso, uma vez que aproximadamente 33% desses pacientes são operados em caráter de emergência (3). Os exames endoscópicos devem ser indicados quando necessários.…”
