This session will focus on a critical part of management of type 2 diabetes: initiating basal insulin. Delayed insulin therapy is often associated with prolonged hyperglycemia and subsequent poorer outcomes such as increased microvascular and macrovascular complications. Thus, learning to add basal insulin to the treatment regimen can assist clinicians with avoiding clinical inertia in diabetes care. Primary care is in an ideal position for leveraging the patient relationship to overcome barriers to insulin such as fear of hypoglycemia, injections, or weight gain.Guideline-based strategies for the initiation of basal insulin with emphasis on the use of longer-acting analog insulins and technology to monitor glycemic control will be illustrated with advanced case studies.

This workshop equips nurse practitioners (NPs) with core skills to enhance patient communication and empower better health outcomes.
We'll delve into the importance of building rapport and trust as the foundation for effective counseling. You'll learn essential attending skills like active listening and open-ended questioning to create a safe space for patient dialogue.
The workshop will explore techniques from motivational interviewing (MI), a collaborative approach that helps patients explore their own desires and motivations for change. This can be particularly valuable when addressing lifestyle modifications or adherence to treatment plans.
By mastering these essential counseling skills and incorporating MI strategies, NPs can build stronger relationships with patients, foster self-management, and ultimately, achieve better treatment outcomes.

In this session, presenters will address the critical need for children and adolescents to receive evidence-based mental health screening, assessment, and effective, brief interventions in primary care practices. The SBIRT (Screening, Brief Intervention, & Referral to Treatment) SAMHSA model will be the basis of our presentation. We will identify evidence-based screening questionnaires and demonstrate brief focused mental health assessment of children/ adolescents who present with anxiety, depression, trauma/ stress related symptoms. We will also identify evidence-based screening, assessment, and intervention with children/ teens with suicidal thoughts/ behaviors and/ or thoughts of harming others. Access to specialty mental health services is difficult for many families. The availability of psychiatric/ mental health providers is often limited and there are wait lists of months to begin treatment. We have developed a toolkit of brief, evidence-based mental health interventions that can be delivered by nurse practitioners in busy health care settings – while awaiting specialty treatment. We will present interventions with the best research evidence to support effectiveness (Level 1 Evidence) for anxiety, depression, trauma/ stress related symptoms and suicidal thoughts and behaviors. We will share resources we use (handouts, worksheets, & information sheets for patients/ parents) in pediatric primary care practice.

Type 2 diabetes by nature is often persistent and progressive, and many patients will eventually require insulin as beta cell function continues to deteriorate over time. Basal insulin is the first step after oral anti-diabetic drugs and other agents fail to get the patient’s a1c at goal. When Hgb A1c values and post-prandial glucose levels remain elevated despite higher basal insulin doses, the addition of mealtime insulin is indicted. There are a variety of ways to initiate prandial insulin, and these treatment regimens will be reviewed in this session. To facilitate the addition of prandial insulin, data from patient self-monitoring of glucose, carbohydrate intake, and patient activity will be incorporated in the plan of care. To further improve the accuracy of insulin treatment, the use of continuous glucose monitoring data will be integrated to demonstrate pattern management using several patient cases.

Men who engage in sexual activity with other men (MSM) are at a greater risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections, including HIV, compared to other groups. This emphasizes the need for effective prevention strategies. While using barriers such as condoms is highly effective in preventing these infections, some individuals perceive condoms as a hindrance to sexual pleasure or intimacy. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is now more accessible and available, which has been demonstrated to reduce the transmission of HIV. However, implementing PrEP requires a comprehensive understanding of safe sex practices within a sex-positive framework. In this session, we will discuss the available PrEP options, when to use them, and why it is essential to continue using condoms for sexual safety, using interactive case studies

Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD) result from a dysregulation of the immune system leading to an immune attack on the thyroid. This presentation describes the clinical value of antibody testing for diagnosis and management of thyroid patients. Autoimmune thyroid diseases are usually accompanied by the presence of anti-thyroid peroxidase (TPO), anti-thyroglobulin (Tg), and thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) antibodies. The connection between TSH-receptor blocking and TSH-receptor stimulating antibodies in the management of thyroid disease will be examined. Guidelines from the American Thyroid Association and the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology for the treatment of autoimmune thyroid disease with be reviewed.

There are key differences in the management of children with Type 2 diabetes compared to adults. Children’s unique medical needs are not just solely based on size differences. The age and developmental needs coupled with family dynamics and ever emerging treatments increases the intracity of caring for children and adolescents with diabetes. These components create challenges when these children present to the primary care office. The purpose of this presentation is to provide a better understanding of these unique differences by exploring updates in clinical practice guidelines and novel and emerging treatments for children diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes.
