Overview / Abstract: |
This expert-led activity offers a “how to” method for introducing strategies that support management of both dysglycemia and obesity. This activity highlights the ramifications of untreated obesity in patients with dysglycemia to underscore the importance of early obesity intervention. It also outlines ways to individualize obesity and dysglycemia management, recognize the benefits of earlier treatment intensification and weight loss, understand the latest data with incretin-based therapies, and optimize strategies to achieve sustained weight loss in patients with T2DM. Prior to participating in the activity, we recommend accessing the T2D Digital Tool to assess your ability to manage patients with dysglycemia and obesity. The series of questions is followed by a comparison of performance with peers as well as personalized takeaways and recommendations for modifications to your management of these patients. |
