Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is regarded as one of the most critical public health challenges of the 21st century. It has evolved into a burgeoning epidemic since the last century, and today ranks among the major causes of mortality worldwide. Diabetes specialist nurses (DSNs) are central to good patient care and outcomes including confident self-care management. Evidence shows that DSNs are cost-effective, improve clinical outcomes, and reduce length of stay in hospital. In this brief narrative review, we aim to describe the roles of DSNs and their contribution in the treatment and management of patients with DM. This narrative review describes the importance of DSNs in healthcare practice, in the inpatient and outpatient departments, in the pediatrics department, in managing diabetic foot ulcers, in the treatment and management of gestational diabetes, in prescribing medications for DM and in diabetes self-management education on glycosylated hemoglobin, and cardiovascular risk factors. To conclude, DSNs have a crucial role in the treatment and management of patients with DM and its complications. DSNs have a great impact on diabetes therapy, and hence implementation of DSNs and nurse-led diabetic clinics might be beneficial for the health care system. Finally, having DSNs might significantly contribute to good healthcare practice and support. Even though DSNs are not available in several regions around the globe, and even though this post is still new to several health care institutions, the presence of DSNs recognized and certified by the various healthcare systems would be very useful.

糖尿病专科护士在更好地治疗和管理糖尿病患者方面的意义:简要回顾。
糖尿病(DM)被认为是 21 世纪最严峻的公共卫生挑战之一。自上个世纪以来,它已发展成为一种流行病,如今已跻身全球主要死亡原因之列。糖尿病专科护士(DSNs)对良好的患者护理和治疗效果(包括自信的自我护理管理)至关重要。有证据表明,糖尿病专科护士具有成本效益,可改善临床疗效并缩短住院时间。在这篇简短的叙述性综述中,我们旨在描述专科护士在治疗和管理糖尿病患者方面的作用和贡献。这篇叙述性综述描述了糖尿病营养师在医疗实践、住院和门诊部、儿科、糖尿病足溃疡管理、妊娠糖尿病治疗和管理、糖尿病药物处方以及糖化血红蛋白和心血管风险因素方面的糖尿病自我管理教育中的重要性。总之,糖尿病营养师在糖尿病及其并发症患者的治疗和管理中发挥着至关重要的作用。DSN 对糖尿病治疗有重大影响,因此,实施 DSN 和护士主导的糖尿病诊所可能对医疗保健系统有益。最后,建立糖尿病服务网点可能会大大促进良好的医疗保健实践和支持。尽管全球一些地区还没有 DSN,尽管这一职位对一些医疗机构来说还很陌生,但得到各种医疗系统认可和认证的 DSN 的存在将是非常有用的。

期刊介绍: Diabetes Therapy is an international, peer reviewed, rapid-publication (peer review in 2 weeks, published 3–4 weeks from acceptance) journal dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of therapeutics and interventions (including devices) across all areas of diabetes. Studies relating to diagnostics and diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health, epidemiology, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also encouraged. The journal is of interest to a broad audience of healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, communications and letters. The journal is read by a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world. Diabetes Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an international and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of all scientifically and ethically sound research.
