The diabetes education programs have succeeded in demonstrating benefit in metabolic control. Objective: to evaluate the impact of a personalized education program for type 2 diabetic patients at 6 months follow-up, in the Hospital de San José, Bogotá. Methodology: a retrospective descriptive study was conducted from records of adult patients with type 2 diabetes who were admitted to the educational program between January 2011 and February 2012. Personalized and group interventions conducted by a multidisciplinary team led by endocrinologist were realized. The metabolic control at program entry and at six months follow-up according to the goals set by the ADA and ATP III is compared. Results: 115 patients were admitted to the program; average age 61.1 years (SD 8.7); median time from diagnosis 10.5 years (IQR 4-17.5), 43.9% of men and 54% of women were over 10 years of evolution. 33.3% of men and 55.4% women were obese. Patients in goals of glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in the 6-month follow-up went from10.4% on admission to 51%, LDL cholesterol from 41.9% to 47.1%, HDL from 46.3% to 62.5%, and triglycerides from to 25.6% 50%. Losses during follow-up were 48.9%. Association between duration of disease (= 5 years) and goals of HbA1c (p 0.005) was documented. Conclusion: the experience in short-term follow-up of a personalized educational program led by endocrinologist and a multidisciplinary team favors metabolic control in diabetic patients.
