Navigating ADCES 2024
Aug 19, 06:12 PM
The Association of Diabetes Care and Education Specialists (ADCES) is an organization ahead of its time in the world of healthcare. Often, those in medicine find the field to be reactionary instead of proactive in addressing the rising burden of chronic disease. The ADCES, formerly the American Association of Diabetes Educators, was founded in 1973 to support and educate clinicians, care providers, and patients of the latest advancements to improve care and quality of life for people with diabetes.
This mission, while important in the 1970s, has become crucial if health systems hope to combat a burgeoning diabetes crisis. In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue: Technology, Therapeutics, & Real-World Perspectives, we celebrate the ADCES 2024 annual meeting through the perspective of hosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, an endocrine clinical pharmacist, director of Education and Training in Diabetes Technology, and codirector of Endocrine Disorders in Pregnancy at the Cleveland Clinic, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, program director of Diabetes Technology at University Hospitals Diabetes and Metabolic Care Center. The first of 2 scheduled episodes related to the meeting, this episode focuses on presentations and sessions Isaacs and Bellini were directly involved in from the meeting.
Key topics include the challenges of using insulin pumps for type 2 diabetes, the role of DME companies in accessing CGM for people with Medicare, and the latest research on automated insulin delivery systems during pregnancy. The hosts also discuss interpreting ambulatory glucose profiles and time-in-range targets. Throughout the conversation, Isaacs and Bellini share their enthusiasm for the advancements in diabetes technology and the importance of effective patient education and counseling.
