PS1-37: Regional Epidemiologic Assessment of Prevalent Periodontitis Using an Integrated Electronic Health Record System

Year: 2012

Type: article

Abstract: 95% CI: 0.64-0.95), and retinopathy (HR: 0.82, 95% CI: 0.69-0.98)were all significantly lower among patients in the bundled care model.Too few incident amputation cases (11 for Bundle, and 6 for Non-Bundle) limit the power to detect significant hazard difference for amputation (HR: 1.32, 95% CI: 0.45-3.85).Above findings are based on an observational design and the population is limited to those enrolled in a health plan in central and northeastern Pennsylvania.Discussion: A primary care all-or-none bundle of measures (Bundle) for management of patients with diabetes may reduce the risk of microvascular and macrovascular events over time.The effectiveness of the Bundle management could be observed in as early as two years.
