Diagnosis and management of neonatal diabetes mellitus: A survey of physicians’ perceptions and practices in ASPED countries
Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice Feb 06, 2020
Habeb AM, et al. - Among paediatricians in Arab countries, researchers determined the awareness and practice of neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM). An online questionnaire has been assigned to practitioners associated with the Arab Society for Paediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes (ASPED). One hundred twenty-six replies were received from 16 countries. This survey demonstrated that pediatricians in ASPED countries caring for children with diabetes have a good understanding of the diagnosis of NDM and the clinical utility of genetic testing in its management. Nevertheless, their clinical practice has had a wide variation. The results of this survey present a baseline overview of the current clinical practice in the area which would be valuable in informing regional interdisciplinary discussions to establish regional guidelines in collaboration with international organizations and direct continuous professional development activities.
