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...
