Diabetes and Antipsychotic Medications

The Diabetes and Antipsychotic Medications seminar and live multimedia Webcast events are designed specifically for psychiatrists, endocrinologists, primary care physicians, clinical psychologists, pharmacists, nurse practitioners, nurses and other interested health care professionals who treat patients with psychiatric illness, specifically schizophrenia.

DIABETES AND ITS CO-MORBIDITIES
The Diabetes and Its Co-Morbidities is a new series that will inform health care professionals of the most up-to-date methods of preventing and treating the complications of diabetes, particularly hypertension and chronic kidney disease. These one hour Webcasts will feature slide presentations followed by interactive Q&A sessions, which will allow health care professionals to receive feedback from experts.

Prevention & Management of Chronic Kidney Disease in the Diabetes Patient

Diabetic nephropathy occurs in up to 40% of patients with diabetes and is characterized by proteinuria and progressive kidney failure. Diabetes is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), accounting for 40-50% of all cases. Intensive diabetes management focused on proper glucose control and lowering of hypertension has been shown to delay the onset of microalbuminuria and progression of nephropathy. This two-part Webcast series will present strategies to help health care professionals to successfully prevent and treat nephropathy.

Managing Hypertension in Adults with Diabetes

Hypertension is a common co-morbid condition of diabetes affecting the majority of people with diabetes. Hypertension is also a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and microvascular complication such as retinopathy and nephropathy. The Diabetes and Hypertension Webcast will help health care professionals to better treat their patients with diabetes and hypertension.
