Description
Summary:Mortality and morbidity from cardiovascular disease continue to rise along with obesity and other cardiometabolic risk factors, making comprehensive management for cardiometabolic disease (CMD) imperative. Despite available treatments, gaps exist in CMD care. Revolutionizing the Delivery of Care in CV Disease and T2DM: The Pilot Cardiometabolic Clinic Initiative (UNITE) is a global initiative aimed at improving outcomes of cardiovascular disease risk in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. UNITE addresses gaps in CMD care by developing and implementing workflows and care delivery processes adapted to different health care systems and resource constraints. This article details the structure and methodology of the UNITE program, including clinic development and performance measurement, along with long-term sustainability and scalability to address the global burden of CMD.
