简要总结
This study is being done to assess the impact of student pharmacist involvement on blood glucose control through non-pharmacological interventions in people of Asian and Asian descent over the age of 50 with type 2 diabetes. This study team is trying to advance the field of pharmacy and expand the roles of student pharmacists.
详细描述
This study aims to assess the clinical impact of student pharmacist-led interventions on glycemic control in adult populations. This study will specifically target adults aged 50 years and older of Asian or Asian-descent with diagnosed type 2 diabetes, residing in San Francisco. The goal of the study is to demonstrate the utility of pharmacy students in a community setting on chronic disease management through patient-specific education and interventions. The aims of this study are to compare glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes who receive continuous assessment and non-pharmacological counseling from student pharmacists versus those who do not. Specifically, this study will evaluate:
- The impact of student pharmacist assessments and personalized recommendations on diet, exercise, and adherence to treatment regimens, and their lasting effects on blood glucose control.
- If participants perceived any value and effect of student pharmacist involvement in managing chronic diseases.
