To describe baseline data of the optimal type 2 diabetes management including benchmarking and standard treatment (OPTIMISE) study in Greece.
"Benchmarking" is the process of receiving feedback comparing one's performance with that of others. The OPTIMISE (NCT00681850) study is a multinational, multicenter study assessing, at a primary care level, whether using "benchmarking" can help to improve the quality of patient care, compared with a set of guideline-based reference values ("non-benchmarking"). In the Greek region, 797 outpatients (457 men, mean age 63.8 years) with type 2 diabetes were enrolled by 84 office-based physicians. Baseline characteristics of this population are presented.
Hypertension was the most prevalent concomitant disorder (77.3%) and coronary heart disease was the most frequent macrovascular complication of diabetes (23.8%). Most patients were overweight or obese (body mass index 29.6 ± 5 kg/m(2)), exhibiting mostly abdominal obesity (waist circumference 102.6 ± 13.6 cm). Biguanides were the most prevalent prescribed drugs for the management of diabetes (70.1% of all prescriptions), whereas statins (93.5% of all prescriptions) and angiotensin receptor blockers (55.8% of all prescriptions) were the most prevalent prescribed drugs for hyperlipidemia and hypertension, respectively. Only 37.4% of patients were on aspirin. Despite treatment, pre-defined targets for fasting plasma glucose (< 110 mg/dL), glycated hemoglobin (< 7%), systolic blood pressure (< 130 mmHg and < 125 mmHg for patients with proteinuria) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (< 100 mg/dL and < 70 mg/dL for patients with coronary heart disease) were reached in a relatively small proportion of patients (29%, 53%, 27% and 31%, respectively). In a Greek population with type 2 diabetes, the control of glycemia or concomitant disorders which increase cardiovascular risk remains poor.
Despite relevant treatment, there is a poor control of diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia in Greek outpatients with type 2 diabetes.
描述包括基准测试和标准治疗(OPTIMISE)研究在内的 2 型糖尿病最佳管理的基线数据,该研究在希腊进行。
“基准测试”是指接收将自身表现与他人表现进行比较的反馈的过程。OPTIMISE(NCT00681850)研究是一项多中心、多国研究,旨在评估在初级保健水平上,使用“基准测试”是否可以帮助改善患者护理质量,与一套基于指南的参考值(“非基准测试”)相比。在希腊地区,由 84 名门诊医生招募了 797 名 2 型糖尿病门诊患者(457 名男性,平均年龄 63.8 岁)。本研究介绍了该人群的基线特征。
高血压是最常见的合并症(77.3%),糖尿病最常见的大血管并发症是冠心病(23.8%)。大多数患者超重或肥胖(体重指数 29.6 ± 5kg/m²),表现出明显的腹部肥胖(腰围 102.6 ± 13.6cm)。二甲双胍是治疗糖尿病最常用的药物(所有处方的 70.1%),而他汀类药物(所有处方的 93.5%)和血管紧张素受体阻滞剂(所有处方的 55.8%)是治疗高血脂和高血压最常用的药物。只有 37.4%的患者服用阿司匹林。尽管进行了治疗,但空腹血糖(<110mg/dL)、糖化血红蛋白(<7%)、收缩压(<130mmHg 和<125mmHg 合并蛋白尿患者)和低密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平(<100mg/dL 和<70mg/dL 合并冠心病患者)的预设目标仍仅在相对较小比例的患者中达到(分别为 29%、53%、27%和 31%)。在希腊 2 型糖尿病患者中,血糖控制或增加心血管风险的合并症控制仍然不佳。
尽管进行了相关治疗,但希腊 2 型糖尿病门诊患者的糖尿病、高血压和高血脂控制仍然不佳。
