UKADS

Study hypothesis

Structured care for diabetes, tailored to the needs of the Asian community, will improve surrogate endpoints for diabetic complications (and by extrapolation morbidity and mortality) in South Asian patients with type 2 diabetes. This will require the extra resources of Asian link workers, additional practice nurse time and community Diabetes Specialist Nurse input, working to protocols with clearly defined targets.

Condition

Type 2 diabetes

Intervention

A complex intervention package comprising specialist diabetes nurse co-ordinators working with practice nurses to implement protocols for the treatment of blood pressure, blood lipid and blood glucose levels. The protocols use simple treatment algorithms and have strict targets. Practice nurse time and training are protected and enhanced, and practice nurses work with Asian link workers to facilitate cultural acceptability of treatment and compliance. DNA samples will be prepared in order to investigate the genetic determinants of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA), the genetic susceptibility to microalbuminuria and candidate susceptibility genes for type 2 diabetes and components of the metabolic syndrome.
Control: usual care
