Validation of an Integrated Attention Model for Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

Abstract: Empowerment interventions for chronic diseases are an evolving process. No agreement exists regarding the necessary components and methodologies to be applied. Systematic reviews have assessed the effect of self-management interventions. Improvements in illness beliefs, adherence to drug therapy and glucose monitoring have been reported. In the long term, no major changes have been achieved in weight, physical activity, smoking status, and depression scores.

There is a need for additional studies. The Center for Comprehensive Care of Patients with Diabetes (CAIPaDi) program is an intervention designed to provide education and empowerment techniques (using simple low-cost interactive tools) over a short period of time followed by at-distance support using internet or cell phone technology. The target population consists of patients with type 2 diabetes, free of chronic complications who are non-smokers. The intervention is composed of four monthly visits followed by a continuous at-distance support system. At each visit, patients stay for six hours in the center. Information is presented in group sessions. Empowerment techniques are applied during individual exchanges with the team or during facilitated group sessions. In summary, empowerment programs are an unmet need in many healthcare services.

Inclusion: being over 18 and under 70 years old; having diagnosis of type 2 diabetes in the five previous years,; having family support; free of disabling diabetes complications.

Exclusion: smoking, alcoholism or illegal drug dependence; advanced complications of diabetes, such as ischemic heart disease, heart failure NYHA III-IV, KDOQI ≥3 renal failure, amputations, cerebral vascular disease, gastroparesis and muscular atrophy ; type 1 diabetes mellitus, gestational diabetes or some variant of diabetes related to genetic syndromes, hyperlabile diabetes; co-morbidities that limit their life expectancy such as malignant tumors; advanced cognitive impairment or serious psychiatric disorders; conditions that require surgical treatment in the short run or which prevent moderated activity.
