Evidence-Based Practice: Diabetes
Identify a research or evidence-based article that focuses comprehensively on a specific intervention or new diagnostic tool for the treatment of diabetes in adults or children. In a paper of 750-1,000 words, summarize the main idea of the research findings for a specific patient population. Research must include clinical findings that are current, thorough, and relevant to diabetes and the nursing practice. Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required. This assignment uses a grading rubric. Instructors will be using the rubric to grade the assignment; therefore, students should review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.

Evidence -based practice seeks to integrate scientific evidence in clinical practice in order to improve quality of care. Diabetes increase the risk of cardio vascular diseases, and the onset of diabetes is typically associated with insulin resistance. Of particular concern, are patients suffering from type 2 diabetes where insulin resistance impairs lipid movement in plasma (Aslan et al., 2013). Thus, one of the propose ways to deal with type 2 diabetes is through insulin therapy. Nonetheless, even with this intervention patients may still stand a risk of cardio vascular complications, and it is necessary to monitor high density lipo proteins (HDL). The study carried out by Aslan et al (2013) is the evidence based article chosen to show relevance of insulin therapy as an intervention to manage diabetes. This paper explores the role of using evidence based practice through insulin therapy to manage type 2 diabetes.
Insulin therapy has been found to work when there is two weeks continuous use of insulin fusion because there is better lipid levels and glycemic control among diabetic patients (Aslan et al., 2013). Nonetheless, there are few studies which show the relation between insulin analog initiation and its impact on diabetes. Unlike type 1 diabetes, type 2 needs insulin therapy in order to regulate blood glucose insulin resistance affects type 2 diabetes, making it necessary to intervene and control blood glucose levels. The strategies chosen to manage diabetes type 2 should take into account the impact of insulin resistance as this typically occurs even before there is diabetes diagnosis. Thus, intervention using insulin therapy helps in glycemic control, being the mechanism which facilitates diabetes management.
Besides insulin resistances, reduced insulin secretion also influence emergence of diabetes type 2, and therapies that seek to tackle these deficiencies in order...
