INTRODUCTIONThis educational video focuses on the management of hypoglycemia as well as impaired awareness of hypoglycemia. It discusses the prevalence of hypoglycemia across all age groups and the need to focus on patient education and counseling to prevent recurrent episodes of hypoglycemia. It also highlights different techniques to help patients remain to get ahead of their hypoglycemic events. This session is aimed at primary care physicians, family physicians, general practitioners, endocrinologists, diabetologists, cardiologists, and other physicians involved in the management of diabetes.This session consists of the following lectures:Impaired awareness of hypoglycemia and management of hypoglycemia After attending the interactive session, the learner should be able to:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Understand the burden of hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes&nbsp;</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Assimilate the key role of patient education for effective management of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Acquire the knowledge of techniques that can help patients track and prevent recurrent episodes of hypoglycemia </li></ul>Expert facultyDr. Partha KarConsultant Endocrinologist at Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust, United KingdomNational Specialty Advisor, Diabetes at NHS England

INTRODUCTIONThis educational video focuses on the importance of insulin for optimal management of patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). It discusses the factors to be considered when prescribing insulin as well as the recommended methods of initiation and intensification to achieve overall improved outcomes. This session is aimed at primary care physicians, family physicians, general practitioners, endocrinologists, diabetologists, cardiologists, and other physicians involved in the management of diabetes.The session consists of the following lectures:Reaching glycemic target with basal insulin – is it enough?After attending the interactive session, the learner should be able to:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Understand the mechanism of drug failure in patients with T2D due to disease progression and decline in beta cell function of pancreas</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Learn the multifactorial approach for creating individualised insulin care for patients with T2D</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Highlight insights from current guidelines to initiate insulin for achieving glycemic control and minimizing the incidence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD)</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Gain knowledge of treatment algorithms for intensification of insulin for overall better T2D care</li></ul>Expert facultyProf. Babatope KolawoleConsultant Physician/EndocrinologistObafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital﻿Osun state, Nigeria

INTRODUCTIONThis educational video concentrates on the close interconnection between cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic (CRM) systems and their role in patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D).&nbsp;Conditions originating from even one of these systems has an overbearing effect on patients with T2D. Type 2 Diabetes contributes not only to an increased cardiovascular incidence but is also the leading cause of renal failure. The video highlights key results from multiple trials to help tackle the burden generated by these co-existing and potentially fatal conditions. This session is aimed at primary care physicians, family physicians, general practitioners, endocrinologists, diabetologists, cardiologists, and other physicians involved in the management of diabetes. The session consists of the following lectures:Diabetes, CVD and CKD – The terrific triadAfter attending the interactive session, the learner should be able to:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Understand the intimate interconnection between cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic systems</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Focus on the impending cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with T2D</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Gain insights on the various methods of effective management of cardiorenal incidence in patients with T2D</li></ul>Expert facultyDr. Adie ViljoenMetabolic PhysicianHonorary Consultant CambridgeUniversity NHS Trust

INTRODUCTIONThis educational video brings attention to the common emergencies that occur in patients with Type 2 diabetes. The video focuses on Diabetic Ketoacidosis as the leading cause of emergencies in patients with Type 2 diabetes and its effective prevention and management. Understanding the pathophysiology of ketoacidosis is of prime significance to reduce its overall incidence. This session is aimed at primary care physicians, family physicians, general practitioners, endocrinologists, diabetologists, cardiologists, and other physicians involved in the management of diabetes.The session consists of the following lectures:Diabetic emergencies - KetoacidosisAfter attending the interactive session, the learner should be able to:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">List out the various emergencies that occur in patients with Type 2 diabetes</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Primarily focus on Diabetic Ketoacidosis as the leading cause of emergencies in patients with Type 2 diabetes</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Understand the pathophysiology, causes, symptoms, prevention, and management of Diabetic Ketoacidosis</li></ul>Expert facultyDr. Damien SteciukGeneral Medicine Specialist,Mauritius.

INTRODUCTIONThis educational video focusses on the significance of timely insulin initiation in patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) to achieve optimal glycemic control. The video emphasizes how insulin initiation can arrest the progressive decline of beta cell function leading to a substantial reduction in HbA1c and longer complication-free survival for patients with T2D. An array of insulin types such as basal, premix and post prandial insulins, along with their initiation and intensification strategies have been discussed. This session is aimed at primary care physicians, family physicians, general practitioners, endocrinologists, diabetologists, cardiologists, and other physicians involved in the management of diabetes.The session consists of the following lectures:Introducing Insulin in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patientsAfter attending the interactive session, the learner should be able to:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Understand the progression of T2D and subsequent diminution of beta cell function</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Assimilate the key role of insulin for effective management of patients with diabetes</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Acquire a knowledge of the varied types and methods of insulin initiation strategies available for patients with T2D</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Recognize intensification options for patients with diabetes based on international guidelines&nbsp;</li></ul>Expert facultyDr. Cecilia Kootin-SanwuEndocrinologistGreater Accra Regional Hospital, Ghana.
