RESUMO
Our objective was to develop a guide based on the best available evidence that allow family physicians to establish criteria for screening, diagnosis, prevention, treatment of disease, early detection and management of complications; to standardize the organizing processes of the diabetic patient's care in the primary care level; and to achieve lifestyle modification for patients and promote self-care. Clinical questions were stated according to the diagram and structured patient-intervention-comparison-outcome. We used a mixed methodology-adoption adjustment, and include 32 guides. For recommendations not included in these, the search process was conducted in PubMed and Cochrane Library Plus with these terms: diabetes mellitus type 2, epidemiology, detection and diagnosis, classification, drug therapy, effects, prevention, control and complication. The clinical practice guideline emphasizes the fundamental change in lifestyle (diet and exercise), self-care and proactive participation of the patient, in addition to the dynamic prescription of medications that would achieve metabolic control in order to reduce late complications.

The Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social--always sensitive to the needs of health of the beneficiary population and to the demographic and epidemiological changes of the society--has developed and implemented DiabetlMSS, a program of attention to the diabetic patient. DiabetlMSS organizes care processes based on the needs and values of the patients, through simultaneous activities of individual consultation and group meetings granted by the multidisciplinary health team. These actions and activities are focused to affect patients' lifestyles positively. Through a plan of nutrition, physical activity, self-care and monitoring, this program increases the interaction between patients, by having an exchange of successful experiences about diabetes control. DiabetlMSS was created with the purpose that the patients achieve the metabolic control and identify complications early on, with the perspective of timely intervention that is reflected in the decrease of the catastrophic effects that causes the disease, both for patient's life expectancy and the quality of care provided by the Institute.

BACKGROUND: Primary care level close monitoring of mild COVID-19 patients has shown to provide a risk reduction in hospitalization and death. We aimed to compare the risk of all-cause death among COVID-19 ambulatory patients who received and did not receive telephonic follow-up in primary health care settings. METHODS: A secondary database analysis, 2-group comparative study, was conducted with data from the medical information systems of the Mexican Institute of Social Security. A total of 1,498,808 ambulatory patients aged 20 years old and over and with laboratory confirmed SARS-CoV-2 by PCR or rapid antigen test were analyzed. Of them, 535,898 (35.8%) where followed by telephonic calls. The cases were attended from October 14, 2020, to April 10, 2022. Death incidence was evaluated. To assess the association between death and telephonic follow-up we calculated risk ratio using a multivariate logistic model. RESULTS: Case fatality rate was 1.29% in the patients who received telephonic follow-up and 2.95% in the cases who did not receive phone calls. Medical history of chronic kidney disease, COPD, cardiovascular disease, tobacco consumption and diabetes were associated with increased risk of death. In the multivariate model, telephonic follow-up was associated with lower risk of all-cause death, with an adjusted risk ratio of 0.61 (95% confidence interval from 0.59, 0.64). CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that telephonic follow-up is associated with a risk of death reduction in adult outpatients with mild COVID-19, in the context of a multimodal strategy in the primary health care settings.

BACKGROUND: Different interventions have been implemented worldwide for the house-hold monitoring of patients with mild COVID-19 to reduce the burden of healthcare systems and guarantee quality of care. Telephone follow up and treatment kits have not been evaluated in the context of a national-wide primary care program. AIM OF THE STUDY: To compare the risk of hospitalization and death for COVID-19 between ambulatory patients who received and those who did not receive a treatment kit and telephone follow-up in a developing country METHODS: A two-group comparative analysis was conducted using data from the medical information systems of the Mexican Institute of Social Security. We included a total of 28,048 laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 patients: 7,898 (28.2%) received a medical kit and 20,150 (71.8%) did not. The incidence rates of hospitalization and death combined were calculated. To identify significant associations between hospitalization or death and treatment medical kits, we calculated the risk ratios using a multivariate logistic model. RESULTS: The incidence of hospitalization was 6.14% in patients who received a kit and 11.71% in those who did not. Male sex, age, and a medical history of obesity, hypertension, diabetes, immunosuppression, or kidney disease were associated with increased risk of hospitalization or death. The risk rates were reduced in patients who received a medical kit or telephone follow-up. In the multivariate model, receiving a medical kit was associated with a lower risk of hospitalization or death from COVID-19: adjusted risk ratio 0.41 (95% confidence interval 0.36-0.47). CONCLUSION: Use of a multimodal strategy may reduce the risk of hospitalization and death in adult outpatients with mild COVID-19.

In diabetes, obtaining optimal control is key to reducing chronic complications. Unfortunately, not all patients achieve the recommended goals. Therefore, the challenges to develop and evaluate comprehensive care models are enormous. In October 2008, the Diabetic Patient Care Program (DiabetIMSS) was designed and implemented in family medicine. Its principal component is the multidisciplinary team (doctor, nurse, psychologist, dietitian, dentist, and social worker) that offers coordinated health care; monthly medical consultation and individual, family and group education on self-care and prevention of complications for 12 months. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the percentage of attendance at the DiabetIMSS modules decreased significantly. This is how the Medical Director considered it necessary to strengthen them, and the Diabetes Care Centers (CADIMSS) arose. In addition to providing medical care with a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach, the CADIMSS encourages the co-responsibility of the patient and his family. It consists of monthly medical consultation and nursing staff provides monthly educational sessions for 6 months. Pending tasks remain and there are still areas of opportunity to modernize and reorganize services that contribute to improving the health of the population with diabetes.
En un paciente con diabetes, la obtención de un control óptimo es clave para reducir las complicaciones crónicas. Desafortunadamente, no todos los pacientes logran las metas recomendadas. Por ello, son substanciales los desafíos para desarrollar y evaluar modelos de atención integral. En octubre del 2008, se diseñó e implementó el Programa de Atención al Paciente Diabético (DiabetIMSS) en medicina familiar. Su componente básico es el equipo multidisciplinario (médico, enfermera, psicólogo, dietista, dentista y trabajador social) que ofrece asistencia sanitaria coordinada, consulta médica mensual y educación individual, familiar y grupal sobre autocuidado y prevención de complicaciones durante 12 meses. Debido a la pandemia de COVID-19, el porcentaje de asistencia a los módulos DiabetIMSS disminuyó importantemente. Es así como la Dirección de Prestaciones Médicas consideró necesario su fortalecimiento, por lo que surgen los Centros de Atención a la Diabetes (CADIMSS). Además de proporcionar atención médico-asistencial con enfoque integral y multidisciplinario, en los CADIMSS se fomenta la corresponsabilidad del paciente y su familia, y se otorga consulta médica mensual y sesiones educativas a cargo de personal de enfermería durante 6 meses. Sin embargo, siguen tareas pendientes, y aún hay áreas de oportunidad para modernizar y reorganizar los servicios que contribuyan a mejorar la salud de la población con diabetes.
