简要总结
The goal of this study is to design and implement an intensive discharge intervention for inpatients with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and determine the effects of the intervention on post-discharge insulin adherence, glycemic control, cardiac medication adherence, hypoglycemic events, and emergency department visits and hospital readmissions.

研究组 & 干预措施
Intensive discharge intervention
The intervention is a multi-modal program consisting of the following:
- Inpatient protocol for adjusting the discharge diabetes regimen;
- Nurse practitioner "discharge advocate" to schedule follow-up appointments, prepare an after-hospital care plan, and patient education and counseling;
- Inpatient pharmacist counseling (identifying and addressing previous barriers to medication adherence, performing enhanced medication reconciliation, and patient education);
- Visiting nurse intervention after discharge;
- Follow-up in a post-discharge clinic with the NP discharge advocate and pharmacist /certified diabetes educator within 3 days of discharge;
- Telemonitoring of POC glucose levels to the study CDE, patient's PCP, or endocrinologist as appropriate; and
- Follow-up with PCP or endocrinologist within 1 week of discharge.
干预措施: Intensive discharge intervention (Other)
Usual Care
