Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Identify patients who, because of postprandial hyperglycemia, are not optimizing overall HA1c target goal attainment; and who, therefore, may be appropriate candidates for therapy with specific agents, including GLP-?1 agonists, in combination with basal insulin, to optimize their glycemic management;
  • Utilize pharmacotherapy-?based approaches to metabolic optimization — pan-?glycemic control, weight loss, etc. — in patients with T2D, with a focus on insulin-?based formulations;
  • Titrate the dose(s) of both basal insulin and a GLP-?1 agonist, when used in fixed-?ratio combination formulations, to achieve optimal HA1c control, weight loss, reduction in risk of hypoglycemia, and postprandial glucose control — i.e. to achieve metabolic state optimization in patients with T2D;
  • Recognize when a physiologic, long-?acting basal insulin is appropriate to reduce risk of hypoglycemia in appropriate patients;
  • Implement complementary, multi-?mechanistic approaches to diabetes care, with a focus on optimizing the safety-?efficacy equation for glycemic control and comprehensive metabolic management by employing a fixed ratio, basal insulin plus GLP-?1 RA combination formulation;

 

Hardware and Software Requirements:
