Abstract

Aims

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus morbidity disproportionally effects the most socioeconomically deprived 20 % of England. Total Diet Replacement (TDR) is a high impact intervention currently commissioned by Integrated Care Boards (ICB). Finding and referring eligible, motivated patients is a significant challenge. This study evaluates a 12-month population health management, proactive referral intervention commissioned by Nottingham and Nottinghamshire ICB during a 2-year TDR pilot designed to supplement referrals from primary care.

Methods

A Diabetes specialist nurse clinically reviewed a list of potentially eligible patients found by searching routinely collected health care data from 16 primary care centres in 3 PCNs.

Results

19.7 % (50/254) of potential patients were referred during the intervention period. 19.3 % (49/254) were uncontactable. 39.8 % (101/254) declined referral. 17.7 % (45/254) were ineligible after clinical review. An interrupted time series analysis suggests monthly referrals increased during the study period due to the intervetion (F (1,22) = 5.19 p=0.0345). Searching for patients from more socioeconomically deprived areas (index of multiple deprivation deciles 1–3) did not meaningfully alter the referral yield (19.6 %, 19/97).

Conclusions

Proactive care interventions could be used to facilitate referrals to the TDR or other high impact interventions by healthcare commissioning bodies.

2 型糖尿病患者的主动全饮食替代转诊：服务评估。

目的：2 型糖尿病的发病率对英格兰社会经济最贫困的 20% 人口的影响尤为严重。全饮食替换（TDR）是目前由综合护理委员会（ICB）委托进行的一项高效干预措施。寻找和转诊符合条件、有积极性的患者是一项重大挑战。本研究评估了诺丁汉和诺丁汉郡综合医疗委员会在为期 2 年的全饮食替代试点期间委托开展的一项为期 12 个月的人口健康管理、主动转诊干预措施，该措施旨在补充来自初级保健的转诊：方法：一名糖尿病专科护士通过搜索 3 个 PCN 中 16 个初级保健中心的常规保健数据，对可能符合条件的患者名单进行临床审查：在干预期间，19.7%（50/254）的潜在患者被转诊。19.3%（49/254）的患者无法联系。39.8%的患者（101/254）拒绝转诊。17.7%（45/254）经临床审查不符合条件。间断时间序列分析表明，在研究期间，每月转诊人数因间断时间序列而增加（F (1,22) = 5.19 p=0.0345）。对来自社会经济较贫困地区（多重贫困指数1-3分位）的患者进行搜索并未显著改变转诊率（19.6%，19/97）：结论：积极的护理干预措施可用于促进转诊至TDR或医疗委托机构的其他高效干预措施。
