Diabetes Management: Step by Step is a guide that can be used by all health care professionals. It provides a unique and very practical approach to the subject, and consists of three component parts:,
Section I: Skill Sheets = concise clinical guidelines aimed at facilitating day–to–day management of diabetes. They provide a comprehensive review of patient care.
Section II: Clinical Sciences = descriptions of real–life clinical situations, and are intended to address some of the grey areas in patient management. Each scenario is followed by some thought–provoking questions and suggested discussion points.
Section III: Self Assessment MCQs = provides a short multiple–choice questionnaire on each aspect of diabetes management. It can be used to gauge the level of understanding at any stage.
By combining practical management guidelines in Section I with problem–based learning techniques in Sections II and III, the reader is encouraged to apply the knowledge he/she has learned to realistic situations, where there is often no easy answer.
