Abstract

Cardiovascular complications were the main consequence of poor glycemic control. The hospital management system needs to make sure that there are opportunities and times set aside for patients to learn how to manage their conditions, including working on some of the things that would prevent them from having proper glycemic control in addition to taking their medications. encouraging early detection of non-communicable diseases through initiatives like community outreach programs and DM screenings for all patients with hypertension, among other things.
