Diabetes and Cardiometabolic Care, Pharmacotherapy, and Patient Outcomes in Two Regional Aboriginal Primary Care Health Centres: Lessons to be Learnt
This study has characterised a population with an early age of T2DM diagnosis, high rates of nephropathy and obesity, and suboptimal glycaemic control. Prescription rates of modern therapies were low. These findings highlight areas for targeted improvement in the quality of cardiometabolic care, including the increased use of modern diabetes agents.
