Assessment of Personalized Follow-up in Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes

Sponsor: Ramsay Générale de Santé

Summary

In France, the overall prevalence of diabetes was estimated at 5% of population in 2016, type 2 diabetes (T2DM) corresponding to 90% of cases. However, this figure is greatly underestimated,since it does not take into account people who are untreated or not diagnosed. However,it is estimated that 20 to 30% of adults with diabetes do not are not diagnosed. Conclusions presented during the annual meeting of the european Association for the Study of diabetes (EASD-Berlin) from 2019 suggest that signs precursors of the disease would be present up to 20 years before the diagnosis. The Diagnosis is usually made around 40-50 years. The main factor of risk of T2D is the lifestyle, in particular a diet too rich for a too sedentary daily life. From a medico-economic point of view, chronic pathologies (including diabetes) account for 60% of insurance expenditure illness even though they concern 35% of insured persons, i.e. 20 million patients. The average annual repayment of a type 2 diabetic patient is 4890 euros. This study is part of this context as the starting point a reflection on a different, coordinated management, to know a preventive rather than a curative approach.
