What is a national diabetes programme?
A National Diabetes Programme is a systematic and co-ordinated approach to improving the organisation, accessibility, and quality of diabetes prevention and care which is usually manifest as a comprehensive policy, advocacy and action plan covering the:
• Main types of diabetes ie type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes
• Whole continuum of care from primary prevention to treatment and palliative care
• Resources, services and systems that support prevention and care

![Page 5: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Getting started
Make the Advocacy case for diabetes
Play the hearts and minds game and play hard:
- use evidence
- use emotion
But keep it simple and make it
![Page 6: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Getting started
Developing a Framework for a National Diabetes Programme
What will be its focus and scope?
Who will the National Diabetes Program target?
• People at risk of diabetes
• Particular types of diabetes, eg. type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes
• The three main types of diabetes
![Page 7: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Getting started
Developing a Framework for a National Diabetes Programme
Mission
State in a few words what is the fundamental issue being addressed, for example, “fight diabetes and win”, “reduce diabetes risk factors”.
![Page 8: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Getting started
Developing a Framework for a National Diabetes Programme
Vision
What would the diabetes situation in your country look like if your National Diabetes Programme achieved its mission.
![Page 9: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Getting started
Establishing a National Diabetes Organisation
Having a national diabetes organisation enables a country to become a member of the IDF. Membership of the IDF provides the country member association with:
- a voice in diabetes affairs at both regional and global levels
- access to the IDF network of members associations, resources, and information
![Page 10: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Section 2: Determining the extent of the problem
• Conducting a Situation and Needs Analysis
• Conducting a Baseline Prevalence Survey
• Assessing the Cost of Diabetes
• Assessing Community Awareness
![Page 11: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Determining the extent of the problem
Conducting a situation and needs analysis
Be clear why you are conducting a situation and needs analysis
What aspects of diabetes will the situation and needs analysis focus on: eg. services, costs, availability of medications.
Will the situation and needs analysis be conducted nationally or will it be applied selectively to particular geographic areas
What are the specific aims of the situation and needs analysis?
What will be measured, assessed, counted, audited or analysed in order to achieve the aims of the situation and needs analysis?
What strategies and techniques will be employed to collect the required information?
Deciding how and to whom the results will be disseminated and how they can best be used will help determine what to focus on, what to assess and which methods are best suited to answer the questions being asked.
![Page 12: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Determining the extent of the problem
Conducting a Baseline Prevalence Survey
In conducting a baseline survey, it may be useful to consider the following:
• Rationale for conducting the survey
• Scope (what other parameters will the survey assess in addition to basic demographics and diagnosis of diabetes)
•Focus (who will be surveyed?)
• Aim (agree on and clearly state and document the aim of the survey)
• Sampling (an accurate representation of the overall composition of the population eg. age, gender, socio-economic level)
• Data collection and management (designing data collection forms, ordering of data fields)
• Assessment issues (explicit protocols to guide the manner in which assessment procedures are carried out)
• Laboratory issues (eg. the supply, storage, and transport of reagents)
• Location and set up of survey venue
• Training of survey staff
• Ethical and safety considerations
![Page 13: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Determining the extent of the problem
Assessing the cost of diabetes
• Focus/viewpoint of the analysis
• Timeframe and study size
• Study designs

Section 5: Evaluating Progress
• What should be assessed?
Process indicators, eg. Number of weight loss or physical activity programs
Surrogate outcome indicators, eg. Frequency and duration of hospital
admissions
Outcome (endpoint) indicators, eg. Incidence and prevalence of diabetes
Collecting diabetes data
![Page 29: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Evaluating Progress
• How should the data be collected and used?A common reason for collecting clinical diabetes data is to evaluate the effectiveness of care.
This requires identifying and tracking people with diabetes to determine what happens to them.
This, in turn, requires record linkage, financial resources and available local expertise
Collecting diabetes data
![Page 30: A Guide to National Diabetes Programmes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/568148dc550346895db5f64d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Evaluating Progress
National diabetes Programmes (NDPs) are essentially a policy process. The three stages of policy are development, implementation and evaluation.
1.Does a National Diabetes Programme exist?2.Is it a comprehensive or single component programme?3.Who is responsible?4.Who is involved?5.Are goals and priorities being actioned?6.What is known about diabetes nationally?7.Is appropriate diabetes care available to people with diabetes?8.General implementation and evaluation strategy?
