11 TH YEAR IN A UNIQUE NATIONAL SERIES A Comprehensive Strategy on the Modern Management of Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes MEDICAL EDUCATION FOR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS Making the Connection Between Patients & Providers Saturday, February 20, 2016 William A. Egan Civic & Convention Center Anchorage, Alaska Inspiring Medical Education www.med-iq.com
In its 11th year, the TCOYD Making the Connection continuing medical education program offers a unique opportunity to bridge patient and professional education, demonstrating the link between clinical lessons taught in the classroom and the real-life patient experience. The ultimate goal of this activity is to educate caregivers and clinicians about the most effective cutting-edge strategies to help patients with diabetes reach their treatment goals and avoid the associated acute and chronic complications. This activity will focus on four distinct areas of diabetes management and will integrate case presentations, as well as an audience response system into the lectures to facilitate more active participation. TARGET AUDIENCE The four areas of focus are: Behavioral and emotional aspects of diabetes care Oral agents for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity Injectable therapies for use in patients with type 2 diabetes Cutting-edge management strategies for patients with type 1 diabetes In addition, this course is being held in tandem with a separate, yet similar, large-scale patient education conference that will give providers the opportunity to observe and interact with people who have diabetes and who are engaged in their own intensive educational environment. Making that connection with patients, providers will acquire new skills and insight into what empowers patients with diabetes to develop healthy self management of their condition.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to: 1 Discuss the different pathophysiologic defects associated with type 2 diabetes and how pharmacologic agents address these specific abnormalities. 2 Describe the new FDA-approved therapies for the treatment of obesity, including the safety and efficacy and how they can be combined with diabetes medications for obese patients with diabetes. 3 Discuss the issues of combination therapy with the currently available oral agents including metformin, TZDs, SFUs, SGLT-2 inhibitors, DPP4 inhibitors as well as GLP-1 receptor agonists. 4 Design rational and individualized treatment plans using mono- or combination therapy, including the optimal time for introducing each therapy. 5 Describe the advantages and limitations of modern insulin preparations and the various clinical strategies including combination therapy, split mixed, premixed, basal-bolus, and pump regimens. 6 Discuss patient-directed insulin titration strategies used in clinical practice for combination therapy and the basal bolus approach. 7 Review and describe the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes as it relates to the role of incretin-based therapies. 8 Outline the most up to date clinical information on GLP-1 receptor agonists, including prescribing guidelines and safety issues. 9 Illustrate the physiologic secretion of insulin, glucagon, and amylin in the normal and diabetic state and propose a physiologic multiple daily injection regimen. 10 Identify appropriate candidates for pump therapy. 11 Design an easy-to-implement treatment plan for initiation of pump therapy and subsequent adjustments based on home and/or continuous glucose monitoring numbers. 12 Discuss scenarios illustrating the information that continuous glucose monitoring technology provides and effective therapeutic adjustments based on continuous glucose monitoring data. 13 Evaluate the physical and emotional barriers that prevent patients with diabetes from being persistent and adherent to their therapeutic regimen(s) thus preventing achievement of metabolic control. 14 Employ innovative and dynamic strategies for communication with patients to strengthen provider-patient relations and improve patient outcomes.
