Optimising managment of type 2 diabetes This latest desktop software program features a new visual design and fast, intuitive feedback based on clinical data entered. It helps GPs review drug therapy and achieve target levels in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Participation will assist GPs to:

• identify patients’ ideal HbA_1c, blood pressure and lipid levels
• use a systematic approach to review frequency of monitoring for HbA_1c, blood pressure, lipid levels
• review drug use to achieve optimal control of blood glucose
• alter antidiabetic drug therapy in patients who are not achieving target HbA_1c
• identify when failure of oral antidiabetic therapy warrants initiation of insulin
• assess coexisting dyslipidaemia and hypertension to minimise cardiovascular risk

This audit can be completed up to 16 April 2010.

This Clinical e-Audit is recognised by the RACGP Quality Assurance & Continuing Professional Development Program, total points 40 (category 1) in the 2008-2010 triennium and the ACRRM Professional Development Program, 30 points (extended skills).
