Summary
A comprehensive professional framework issued by the American Diabetes Association to guide the diagnosis and management of the disease. This clinical publication outlines essential protocols for screening, classification, and therapeutic intervention across various patient populations, including children, pregnant women, and the elderly. It emphasizes a patient-centered approach that integrates the Chronic Care Model to address not only physiological targets but also the social determinants of health and psychological well-being. The text details specific diagnostic criteria using A1C and plasma glucose levels while providing evidence-based updates on pharmacological treatments and emerging medical technologies. Furthermore, it serves as a "living document" designed to help healthcare practitioners navigate complex comorbidities and reduce the global economic burden of the illness. This edition specifically highlights the need for early combination therapy and increased access to affordable insulin to improve long-term outcomes.
