Expertly authored by the world's leading specialists in
the field, Prevention of Diabetes is the definitive guide
for better preventative diabetes care.
Using an evidence-based approach, it outlines the very latest in
the identification of people at high risk for type 2 diabetes and
how best to use interventional methods such as screening at-risk
individuals, pharmaceutical intervention and lifestyle
changes.
In addition, it will provide healthcare professionals with the
clinical knowledge required to clearly identify the early symptoms
of diabetes, enabling them to provide their patients with better
clinical care and helping avoid the onset of full-blown
diabetes.
Also covered are both the health economics of establishing, and
the methods of implement/delivering targeted prevention programmes
into clinical and health care practice, based on the vast
experience of the editors due to their involvement in such
programmes.
Prevention of Diabetes provides clear and expert
information in a practical, accessible way, and is ideal reading
for all those with an interest in the prevention of diabetes and
obesity, such as public health workers, specialists in diabetes and
obesity, and GP's seeing patients with early onset or
pre-diabetes symptoms.
