Complications of GLP-1 receptor agonists

This year’s curriculum will also feature discussions about:

Glucose variability and diabetes

Effects of high fat and high protein diets on glucose control

Nutritional supplements in treatment of DM2

The goal of this symposium is to increase practitioners’ competence and clinical performance in treating diabetes and its complications and, ultimately, to improve patient outcomes.

Attendees will be able to:

Critically appraise clinical evidence and guidelines supporting hybrid closed-loop systems in pregnancy and identify key considerations when initiating and monitoring hybrid closed-loop pumps during pregnancy.

Describe the efficacy of inhaled insulin to insulin pump therapy in diabetes management.

Discuss the role of nutritional supplements in the management of Type 2 diabetes and glycemic control, including the use of berberine.

Analyze current research and define treatment strategies for challenges in diabetes care, including dementia, blood pressure, including intensive blood pressure control, and cardiovascular and renal complications in diabetes.

Discuss evidence-based treatment strategies for post-gastric bypass hypoglycemia, including dietary modifications, pharmacotherapy, and other interventions.

Who should attend?

This activity is designed for physicians, diabetes educators, nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, physician assistants, residents and fellows, and other health care professionals who care for patients with diabetes.
