New Delhi, Aug 21 (ANI): In a unique synthesis between technology and care, a study observes that integrated or 'collaborative' care model delivered in diabetes clinics can lower depressive symptoms and improve cardiometabolic health. The model studied on 400 patients with diabetes and moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms attending four diverse diabetes clinics in India over a two-year period brings out a positive and major improvement in the group receiving an integrated approach. The technology component combined an electronic case record form with decision support software (which provided algorithm-based recommendations for the management of glucose, blood pressure, cholesterol and depression). Researchers note that improvements were more pronounced in patients with the worst parameters. The results also report that the observed benefits wane on discontinuing the intervention, implying the need for continued support for blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol levels. The major constrain is, however, to coordinate the study of this size across the country and to able to ensure that patients do follow up on a regular basis. The study is conducted by diabetes researchers from India, in collaboration with Emory University, Atlanta and the University of Washington. In AIIMS, the study was jointly conducted by the Department of Psychiatry and Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism.
