Implementation and Evaluation of a Pharmacist-led Diabetes Care Pathway in Alberta Community Pharmacies (NCT07339852)
Implementation and Evaluation of a Pharmacist-led Diabetes Care Pathway in Alberta Community Pharmacies.
๐ฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
As of 2024, nine percent of Albertans are living with Type 2 diabetes, which increases their risk for cardiovascular disease, stroke, blindness, and kidney failure. Unfortunately, less than half of patients have controlled Type 2 diabetes. We are well aware of the factors which lead to worsening diabetes, but need to give people more support to help them manage their diabetes. Pharmacists are respected health care professionals who are often easier to see that doctors and can help people with diabetes to stay as healthy as possible. This research project aims to see whether a pharmacist service can help improve diabetes management in people with type 2 diabetes compared to usual care from their family physician or nurse practitionner. The potential impact of this project is to empower people with type 2 diabetes to understand their condition, it's management, and to achieve target blood sugar levels, which will ultimately reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications.
