Implementing a Diabetes Care Management Support System (DCMSS) improved lipid profile testing and retinal exams for patients with diabetes. Increased system use by physicians correlated with higher rates of these crucial secondary prevention screenings.

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Clinical Informatics
  • Diabetes Management

Background:

  • Diabetes care requires long-term secondary prevention due to asymptomatic progression.
  • Routine monitoring and screening for diabetes complications are often suboptimal.
  • A Web-based Diabetes Care Management Support System (DCMSS) was developed to aid routine care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of a DCMSS on the frequency of routine screenings for patients with diabetes.
  • To assess the relationship between DCMSS usage by primary care providers and patient receipt of key tests.

Main Methods:

  • A nonrandomized, longitudinal study involving 13,325 patients with diabetes.
  • Utilized logistic regression with generalized estimating equation methods.

  • Controlled for patient and provider characteristics, and prior testing history.

    • Main Results:

    • Increased DCMSS usage by physicians was associated with higher rates of lipid profile testing (OR=1.01).
    • Physicians using the system 12 times had patients 19% more likely to receive lipid profile testing.
    • System usage also positively correlated with retinal examinations (OR=1.01).
    • No significant relationship was found between system use and glycated hemoglobin testing.

    Conclusions:

    • Computerized systems integrating guidelines, registries, and feedback can enhance diabetes care.
    • DCMSS features show potential for improving secondary prevention screening rates in diabetes management.
    • Targeted interventions via electronic systems may improve adherence to recommended diabetes care protocols.
