Diabetes in Practice : Case Studies With Commentary

Diabetes clinical practice is a life-long learning experience, and the insights presented in Diabetes in Practice will facilitate a deeper knowledge of the complex nature of diabetes and its comorbidities for physicians, nurse practitioners, registered dietitians, diabetes educators, and students.

Diabetes in Practice offers a deep look into years of the professional practice of clinical diabetes. The 49 case studies Boris Draznin, MD, PhD, has assembled cover a wide array of diabetes cases involving atypical presentations to those addressing ketoacidosis and hypoglycemia, continuous glucose monitoring and insulin pumps, and diabetes co-occurring with cancer and autoimmune conditions. Each case study includes expert review from long-term diabetes practitioners to help you in your daily interactions with patients and enhance your understanding of diabetes diagnosis and treatment challenges.
