How does the World Diabetes Day 2021 Theme emphasize the role of each of the above-mentioned persons?

Diabetes is not just a number game. Lowering blood sugars is very important and crucial in the management of diabetes. However, a holistic and multidisciplinary approach should be the goal.

Primary care is provided by general physicians and endocrinologists. They adjust your diabetes and hypertension medications in order to achieve your glycemic targets. They also try to collaborate with other healthcare providers regarding advanced diabetes care.

The involvement of Cardiologists, Ophthalmologists, Neurologists, and Nephrologists in the management of diabetes is to prevent and treat diabetes-related major organ dysfunction. These complications include diabetic nephropathy, diabetic retinopathy, stroke, and heart failure.

General Surgeons and plastic surgeons take care of diabetic infections, especially foot infections. Bariatric surgeons might help people with diabesity. Bariatric surgeons can reverse diabetes and prediabetes.

The role of pharmacists, nurses, dieticians, and laboratory technicians can not be denied. Similarly, the importance of support from family and friends is extremely important.
