Overview
In this educational hub ‘Incretin Management in Type 2 Diabetes’ the faculty present the importance of screening and early intensification for better glycaemic control and improved vascular and mortality outcomes in type 2 diabetes.
In this series of CME accredited videos and downloadable summaries, leading global experts will guide you through how the incretin system works, what happens to it in type 2 diabetes and how to optimise the use of incretin-based agents for better patient outcomes.

Radcliffe Education requires contributors to our CME programmes to disclose any relevant financial relationships that have occurred within the past 12 months that could create a conflict of interest. These will be identified in the faculty section if applicable.
The session of ‘Incretin Management in Type 2 Diabetes’ is accredited by the European Board for Accreditation in Cardiology (EBAC) for 1 hour of external CME credits.
Each participant should claim only those hours of credit that have actually been spent in the educational activity. EBAC works according to the quality standards of the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME), which is an institution of the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS).

Target Audience
This programme is intended to educate:
- Primary care physicians (PCPs)/ General Practitioners (GPs)
- Endocrinologists
- Diabetologists
- Nurses
Learning Objectives
The overall programme, ‘Incretin Management in Type 2 Diabetes’’, endeavours to best address the following learning objectives:
- Recall the components of the ‘ominous octet’ & how they contribute to T2DM development
- Identify underlying facets of clinical inertia in T2DM care
- Describe how early adoption of intensive glycaemic control leads to better outcomes in T2DM
- Recall efficacy & the mode of action of various incretin-based treatments
- Adopt an early, intensive glucose-lowering strategy in appropriate individuals
- Select appropriate incretin treatment & dosing regimens according to patient profiles
- Identify individuals likely to gain cardiovascular benefit from GLP-1RAs
- Select appropriate actions following adverse events from incretin-based treatments
