overview

Diabetes and hyperglycemia increase the risk of hospitalization, and control of blood glucose throughout the time in the hospital and beyond is critical to patient well-being and best outcomes.

In this multimedia program, our panel of experts delves into best clinical practices to manage patients with diabetes and hyperglycemia as they transition into the hospital, from one unit to another within the hospital, and onto discharge by introducing a new model from which professionals can structure their assessment and treatment of these patients.

The topics presented in this program are:

Diabetes and Hyperglycemia in the Hospitalized Patient:

Growing Prevalence - Growing Problem - Growing Body of Standards

Transitioning the Patient Into the Hospital

Inpatient Insulin and Transitions Within the Hospital

Education and Discharge

Each of the four presentations in this webcast is followed by an interactive panel discussion. You will have the opportunity to participate in the discussion, as interactive questions are posed to you and your answers are discussed by our panel. A PDF companion ToolKit is also included as an aid in facilitating the transition of care.
