Patient-Centered Approach
• Gauge patient’s preferred level of involvement
• Explore therapeutic choices
• Consider using decision aids
• “Shared decision making”
• Lifestyle choices ultimately lie with the patient
“...providing care that is respectful of and responsive to individual patient preferences, needs, and values -ensuring that patient values guide all clinical decisions.”
Glycemic Recommendations: Individualized Treatment
* More or less stringent glycemic goals may be appropriate for individual patients. Goals should be individualized based on duration of diabetes,
age/life expectancy, comorbid conditions, known CVD or advanced microvascular complications, hypoglycemia unawareness, and individual
patient considerations.
† Postprandial glucose measurements should be made 1–2 h after the beginning of the meal, generally peak levels in patients with diabetes

In patients with T2DM and established ASCVD:
• antihyperglycemic therapy should begin with lifestyle management and metformin
– subsequently incorporate an agent proven to reduce major adverse CV events and CV mortality (currently empagliflozin and liraglutide), after considering drug-specific and patient factors (Table 8.1). A
– the antihyperglycemic agent canagliflozin may be considered to reduce major adverse CV events, based on drug-specific and patient factors (Table 8.1). C

Medical Care in Diabetes. Diabetes Care 2018; 41 (Suppl. 1): S73-S85
Insulin Therapy in T2DM
• The progressive nature of T2DM should be
regularly and objectively explained to T2DM
patients.
• Avoid using insulin as a threat, describing it as a
failure or punishment.
• Give patients a self-titration algorithm.

Case Study: Introduction
• Mrs. G, a 58-year-old African American, has had
T2D for 8 years
• Currently being treated for hypertension (12 years)
and dyslipidemia (10 years)
• Concerned about uncontrolled blood glucose level, a
recent increase in weight (5 lbs)
• Non-smoker and only occasionally consumes alcohol
• Walks 15-20 minutes, three times a week
• Diet has improved over last 5 years after consult with
RD, but she admits to having a “sweet tooth” (Continued…)

B. DPP-4 inhibitor
C. SGLT2 inhibitor
D. Basal insulin
E. A, B, C, or D above
Case Study: Think-Pair-Share
• What option you would have tried first?
• Would you discontinue the sulfonylurea or add the
GLP-1 receptor agonist to the
metformin/sulfonylurea?

Key PointsIndividualize glycemic targets & BG-lowering therapies
Lifestyle foundation of any T2DM therapy program
• In patients with ASCVD and T2D, subsequent treatment should incorporate agent proven to ↓ CV events and/or CV mortality
• Ultimately, many patients will require insulin therapy alone or in combination with other agents to maintain BG control
• Shared decision making (focus on his/her preferences, needs & values)
Unless contraindicated, metformin is optimal first-line drug
Comprehensive CV risk reduction - a major focus of therapy
