Читать книгу Spectrum - Part 1: Curriculum - AGDT-AGPD Spectrum Group - Страница 5

The first section of this curriculum is intended to empower diabetes professionals to use the SPECTRUM program in its version for adults. Two more versions of SPECTRUM for pediatric target groups will be covered later in this curriculum.

On the following pages we would like to present the central ideas of SPECTRUM to explain this training and treatment program and the methodology we have chosen. You will also find information and tips to help you prepare and present the SPECTRUM course.

The attending physician is responsible for prescribing a continuous glucose monitoring system, for accompanying the start of CGM use with measures such as this training course, for the optimization of alarm settings and the regular evaluation of the saved CGM information.

In order for patients to properly use CGM in their day-to-day lives and for them to draw the correct conclusions for their insulin therapy, the consultations with the physician and diabetes advisor should go hand-in-hand with this training. For this reason, SPECTRUM places the emphasis on close cooperation between all parties for the evaluation of the measured glucose values, the interpretation of glucose trends and the individual definition of therapeutic consequences.

We would like to wish you much success in the use of SPECTRUM for adults!

Yours truly, the Author Team.
