Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I01:21

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I

2.6K
An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care.
Physicians
The physician's primary responsibility is to diagnose illness and direct the medical or surgical treatment of the condition. The authority to admit patients to a healthcare agency or institution and practice care within that setting is granted to physicians by the healthcare agency or institution...

Physical Therapist
A physical therapist (PT) aims to restore function or prevent additional impairment in a patient following an injury or disease. Massage, heat, cold, water, sonar waves, exercises, and electrical stimulation are some treatments used by PTs to treat...

Predicting Reaction Outcomes

10.4K
Kinetics describes the rate and path by which a reaction occurs. In contrast, thermodynamics deals with state functions and describes the properties, behavior, and components of a system. It is not concerned with the path taken by the process and cannot address the rate at which a reaction occurs. Although it does provide information about what can happen during a reaction process, it does not describe the detailed steps of what appears on an atomic or a molecular level. On the other hand,...

Outcomes of Glycolysis01:13

Outcomes of Glycolysis

106.8K
Nearly all the energy used by cells comes from the bonds that make up complex organic compounds. These organic compounds are broken down into simpler molecules, such as glucose. As a result, cells extract energy from glucose over many chemical reactions—a process called cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration can occur aerobically (with oxygen) or anaerobically (without oxygen). In the presence of oxygen, cellular respiration starts with glycolysis and continues with pyruvate...

Pathophysiology of Diabetes01:20

Pathophysiology of Diabetes

3.3K
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. The four categories of diabetes are type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, other specific types of diabetes, and gestational diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β cells, with environmental factors potentially triggering this process in genetically susceptible individuals. Despite many not having a family history, certain genes increase susceptibility,...

Guidelines for Writing Outcome01:11

Guidelines for Writing Outcome

3.7K
When developing expected outcomes for a patient care plan, the nurse should adhere to the following recommendations:
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Primary Care Medicine
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Diabetes management in rural primary care presents unique challenges.
  • Effective glycemic control is crucial for preventing long-term diabetes complications.
  • Interdisciplinary team-based care models show promise for improving chronic disease management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of an interdisciplinary diabetes team model.
  • To assess improvements in glucose control (hemoglobin A1c) in a rural primary care setting.
  • To determine the impact of a multidisciplinary team on patient diabetes outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • A family medicine clinic implemented an interdisciplinary diabetes team (dietitian, case manager, pharmacist, psychologist, physicians, nurses).
  • Patients with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥9% were referred for intensive management.
  • Initial consultations and follow-up visits were conducted as needed.

Main Results:

  • Significant reduction in median HbA1c from 10.25% to 8.7% at 1-6 months (P < 0.001).
  • Further reduction in latest HbA1c to 8.4% (1-18 months follow-up; P < 0.001).
  • 86% of patients achieved lower HbA1c; 33% reached HbA1c <8%.

Conclusions:

  • An interdisciplinary team approach effectively reduces HbA1c in rural primary care.
  • This model of care significantly improves glycemic control for diabetic patients.
  • Team-based care is a viable strategy for enhancing diabetes management in underserved areas.
