Evaluation of Pharmacist Intervention for Individuals With Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes
Sponsor: University of Manitoba
Summary
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease that can lead to a number of complications if uncontrolled and there is a projected increase of 33% patients living with diabetes over the next 10 years. There can be improvements to modifiable risk factors such as diet and exercise, in addition to medications. Treatment often involves a multidisciplinary approach with a physician, endocrinologist, dietitian, pharmacist and other support health professionals as required. This study will evaluate the effects of the pharmacists (or pharmD interns) intervention, looking at changes to the patients HbA1C, which is a measure of the patients blood glucose control over the previous 3 months as well as the patients understanding and comfort with managing their own diabetes via participant survey.
