This Bite Sized module is designed to help those who are new to Diabetes Care understand the pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes; understand the incidence of the disease; as well as risk factors and signs and symptoms. The course will also discuss diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes; and discussion surrounding the importance of diet and lifestyle in the management of the disease. Medications used for Type 2 diabetes will be explored.
At Dexcom, we believe that with diabetes, knowledge is power, we’ve spent the last 20 years innovating and developing simpler and better ways for people with type 1 diabetes to measure, track and manage their diabetes. When Dexcom was established the only way to measure glucose levels was to fingerstick, it gave us a snapshot not a story which made it difficult to understand our glucose levels and trends over time or feel in control of our diabetes. Since then, we’ve launched the world’s first real-time CGM system and helped to eliminate more than 11 billion fingersticks.
