To promote diabetes care, prevention and a cure worldwide

What are The IDF Goals? 1 .Global Advocacy

2 .To raise Global Awareness

3 .Promote appropriate Diabetes Care & Prevention

4 .Encourage finding a Cure

Objective 4 attained!

For improving Diabetes Care and Prevention , Education of Health Care Providers should consider expertise in both: I- Clinical Diabetes , and

II- Educations skills

The Way to a National Diabetes Program

Minimal requirements : 1- Insulin and medications availability ( affordable) 2- Primary centers for diagnosis and care 3- wide distribution of services allover the country 4- Basic requirements to manage complications 5- Education : knowledge & skills to patients – Public orientation 6- National basic studies in epidemiology and socioeconomics . 7- Care for Diabetes in School children 8- Care for diabetes in pregnancy

Potential Adverse Factors 1- Economic :Poor Financial Res. /per capit. / Government expenditure/ House-hold expend. with High Prev. of diab.

2- Demographic Extensive areas with poor communications . High population density

3- Social : Illiteracy- Misconceptions – adverse habits and traditions.

Diabetes Care for Special Groups School Children - Registration at national level - Individual records in schools - basic equipments to manage emergencies - Education courses to school attendants. - protecting special rights : play- recreation - treatment .non discrimination …etc

Mothers with Diabetes of Pregnancy

- Screening for diabetes of pregnancy - Protocols for management of GD - Care for the N.B. - After-labour follow-up of mothers

The National Diabetes Registry - essential as source of information for planning public services - Central location - paper or computer recordings - contains individual patient data - complemented by local & peripheral registries (in schools - work – Health insurance, etc ) - network connections for exchange information

Diabetes Screening Programmes - Specifically to high risk groups - By central planning and organization - ensure unified criteria for diagnosis

- Screening for early detection of complications :

- Sending study groups to remote areas.

International Relations

The International Diabetes Federation

1- get moral support from IDF to National Associations & programs 2- use as source of information & educational material 3- Benefit from IDF Task forces’ activities and programs 4- Benefit from WDD events

The WHO
