This report aims to gather the lessons learnt on the effects of HIT to costs and benefits that might be of use to organisations looking to develop and implement HIT programmes. This is a difficult exercise considering the multiple factors affecting implementation of an HIT programme. Factors include organisational characteristics, the kinds of changes being put in place and how they are managed, and the type of HIT system. The report finds that barriers to HIT implementation are still substantial but that some progress has been made on reporting the organisational factors crucial for the adoption of HIT. However, there is a challenge to adapt the studies and publications from HIT leaders (early implementers and people using HIT to best effect) to offer lessons beyond their local circumstances. The report also finds limited data on the cost-effectiveness of HIT.

People with diabetes often struggle to make healthy choices and stay on top of managing their illness. Filling a vital need, this is the first book to focus on the use of motivational interviewing (MI) in diabetes care. The uniquely qualified authors--physician Marc P.

Miller is the codeveloper of MI--present proven counseling techniques that can make any conversation with a patient more efficacious and motivating.

This Handbook fulfils a pressing need within the area of psychological measurement in diabetes research and practice by providing access to material which has either been widely dispersed through the psychological and medical literature or has not previously been published. Journal articles describing the psychometric development of scales have rarely included the scales themselves but this book includes copies of scales and a wealth of additional information from unpublished theses, reports and recent manuscripts. You will find information about the reliability, validity, scoring, norms, and use of the measures in previous research presented in one volume. The Handbook is designed to help researchers and clinicians: - To select scales suitable for their purposes - To administer and score the scales correctly - To interpret the results appropriately. Dr. Clare Bradley is Reader in Health Psychology and Director of the Diabetes Research Group at Royal Holloway, University of London. Dr. Bradley and her research group have designed, developed and used a wide variety of measures of psychological processes and outcomes. Many of these measures have been designed and developed specifically for people with diabetes. Together with diabetes-specific psychological measures developed by other researchers internationally, these instruments have played an important part in facilitating patient-centred approaches to diabetes research and clinical practice.

The overall goal of my CNL project was to increase participation of diabetic patients in diabetes self-management education (DSME) by at least 20%, by identifying and addressing barriers and obstacles hindering the achievement or maintenance of diabetes self-management behaviors in a medical-surgical unit. A total of 20 diabetic patients completed both the pre - and pot-test questionnaires; 40% of participants were Asian Americans, 30% were African Americans, 20% were Hispanics, 10% were Caucasians. A pre- test questionnaire was administered to identify the barriers susceptible to hinder the achievement of diabetes self-care behaviors. The main barriers identified include the limited accessibility and the high cost of healthy foods, the inability to read food labels, the lack of knowledge about carbohydrate counting, the lack of social support, the lack of time and lack of motivation, the lack of knowledge of self-care procedures including blood glucose monitoring, medication management, poor problem-solving skills, maladaptive coping mechanisms, and the lack of knowledge of acute complications. Following the pre-test, an intervention consisting of education of patients in diabetes self-management was implemented to address the identified barriers. The goal of the education was to improve the overall health status by empowering diabetes patients to acquire knowledge, learn skills, develop the appropriate behaviors, develop the problem-solving and coping skills to overcome the barriers and obstacles identified. Following the intervention, over 50% of participants agreed to be able to make improvements in diabetes self-management behaviors. Most of them did change their self-management behaviors; others started reflecting on it.
