About The National Diabetes Prevention Program
ont The CDC-led National Diabetes Prevention Program is a public-private partnership of community organizations, private insurers, employers, health care organizations, and government agencies. These partners are working together to establish local evidence-based lifestyle change programs for people at high risk for type 2 diabetes. These evidence-based lifestyle change programs are based on the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) research study, which showed that type 2 diabetes can be prevented or delayed through modest lifestyle changes involving healthy eating and physical activity. The lifestyle change program is led by a trained facilitator called a Lifestyle Coach. In the lifestyle change program, participants meet in a group with their Lifestyle Coach over the course of one year to work towards the goal of losing 5 to 7 percent of their starting body weight in order to reduce their risk for type 2 diabetes. The program emphasizes improving food choices, being physically active for at least 150 minutes each week, and developing skills to identify and overcome barriers to making lifestyle changes.

Ymca's Diabetes Prevention Program
measurable Progress Unlimited Support. The YMCA’s Diabetes Prevention Program is part of the CDC-led National Diabetes Prevention Program, and designed to help those at high risk adopt and maintain healthy lifestyles and reduce their chances of developing type 2 diabetes. Our Diabetes Prevention Program is based on the landmark Diabetes Prevention Program funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which showed that by eating healthier, increasing physical activity and losing a small amount of weight, a person with pre-diabetes can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes by 58%. In a classroom setting, a trained lifestyle coach will help you change your lifestyle by learning about healthy eating, physical activity and other behavior changes over the course of 16 one-hour sessions. Topics covered include nutrition, getting started with physical activity, overcoming stress, staying motivated, and more. After the initial 16 core sessions, you will meet monthly for up to a year for added support to help them maintain their progress. Am I at risk? Your doctor can tell if you are at risk. He/she can determine your risk through a blood test with one of the following results: Fasting plasma glucose between 100-125 mg/dL Hemoglobin A1c between 5.7% and 6.4% Random or casual blood glucose level of 199-240 mg/dL or higher In addition, a combination of risk factors such as family history, overweight, gestational diabetes, and elevated cholesterol may also put you at risk. Can I participate? To qualify for the program, individuals must be overweight and at high risk for developing diabetes or overweight and have been diagnosed by a physician as someone with pre-diabetes.

A National Effort To Prevent Type 2 Diabetes: Participant-level Evaluation Of Cdc’s National Diabetes Prevention Program
OBJECTIVE To assess participant-level results from the first 4 years of implementation of the National Diabetes Prevention Program (National DPP), a national effort to prevent type 2 diabetes in those at risk through structured lifestyle change programs. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Descriptive analysis was performed on data from 14,747 adults enrolled in year-long type 2 diabetes prevention programs during the period February 2012 through January 2016. Data on attendance, weight, and physical activity minutes were summarized and predictors of weight loss were examined using a mixed linear model. All analyses were performed using SAS 9.3. RESULTS Participants attended a median of 14 sessions over an average of 172 days in the program (median 134 days). Overall, 35.5% achieved the 5% weight loss goal (average weight loss 4.2%, median 3.1%). Participants reported a weekly average of 152 min of physical activity (median 128 min), with 41.8% meeting the physical activity goal of 150 min per week. For every additional session attended and every 30 min of activity reported, participants lost 0.3% of body weight (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS During the first 4 years, the National DPP has achieved widespread implementation of the lifestyle change program to prevent type 2 diabetes, with promising early results. Greater duration and intensity of session attendance resulted in a higher percent of body weight loss overall and for subgroups. Focusing on retention may reduce disparities and improve overall program results. Further program expansion and investigation is needed to continue lowering the burden of type 2 diabetes nationally. Diabetes takes a significant toll on the public’s health and on our nation’s health care systems and payers. In addition to the 29 million people in Continue reading >>
Cdc Recognizes First Fully Mobile Diabetes Prevention Program
CDC Recognizes First Fully Mobile Diabetes Prevention Program The first fully mobile translation of the national Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) has been recognized by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Noom, a global health coaching company that combines mobile technology with human behavioral coaching, was notified last week that its program had met the CDC's Diabetes Prevention Recognition Program Standards (DPRP) for delivering a quality, evidence-based program. There are also a number of other mobile apps and "virtual-technology" modes, some of which are combined with in-person classes, that have been approved by the CDC to deliver the National DPP and currently have "pending recognition," a CDC spokesperson said. This is in addition to more than 100 online programs and more than 1000 recognized programs nationwide delivering the DPP. "Both in-person and virtual delivery of national DPP lifestyle-change program is critical," the spokesperson told Medscape Medical News in an email. "Both are needed and both can be successful." CDC recognition of any method of delivering this program means that quality has been assessed according to the accepted national standards, and "clinicians can look to this as a means for ongoing monitoring and technical assistance for these programs by CDC," the spokesperson added. Users are not yet reimbursed by Medicare, however. This will come as of January 1, 2018, when coverage for the DPP will be expanded to include all eligible at-risk beneficiaries with prediabetes aged 65 years or older or those with a history of gestational diabetes at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes. In the meantime, there are several commercial plans "that provide some form of coverage and have done so well in advance of the pending CMS coverage," Continue reading >>
Prediabetes
Prediabetes is a serious health condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not high enough yet to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes. Approximately 84 million American adults—more than 1 out of 3—have prediabetes. Of those with prediabetes, 90% don’t know they have it. Prediabetes puts you at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. The good news is that if you have prediabetes, the CDC-led National Diabetes Prevention Program can help you make lifestyle changes to prevent or delay type 2 diabetes and other serious health problems. Causes Insulin is a hormone made by your pancreas that acts like a key to let blood sugar into cells for use as energy. If you have prediabetes, the cells in your body don’t respond normally to insulin. Your pancreas makes more insulin to try to get cells to respond. Eventually your pancreas can’t keep up, and your blood sugar rises, setting the stage for prediabetes—and type 2 diabetes down the road. Symptoms & Risk Factors You can have prediabetes for years but have no clear symptoms, so it often goes undetected until serious health problems such as type 2 diabetes show up. It’s important to talk to your doctor about getting your blood sugar tested if you have any of the risk factors for prediabetes, which include: Being overweight Being 45 years or older Having a parent, brother, or sister with type 2 diabetes Being physically active less than 3 times a week Ever having gestational diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy) or giving birth to a baby who weighed more than 9 pounds Race and ethnicity are also a factor: African Americans, Hispanic/Latino Americans, American Indians, Pacific Islanders, and some Asian Americans are at higher risk. Getting Tested You can get a simple blood Continue reading >>
