March 13 Diabetes Conference Examines Complications, Patient Noncompliance

Diabetes Conference March 13, 2010Register today for the Sixth Annual Diabetes Regional Conference: Evidence-Based Interventions to Stem the Burden of Diabetes Complications, Saturday, March 13, 7:45 a.m.-4:30 p.m., UT Conference Center. This course offers up to 6 AMA, AAFP, AAPA and ACPE credits or .6 CEUs.

While the cost, morbidity and mortality from diabetes, itself, is high, its numerous complications and associated risk factors account for the overwhelming burden of this disease. Healthcare professionals play a pivotal role in stemming these health consequences by learning and applying the most recent evidence-based treatment strategies and interventions.

In response to participant evaluations of past diabetes conferences, the 2010 conference will address patient noncompliance in addition to latest medical research into ophthalmological, cardiovascular, vascular and renal complications of diabetes. Specialists in these and other fields, including nutrition and psychology, will offer knowledge to help physicians help their diabetic patients.
