Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that remains underrecognized, especially in adults. Once thought of as a childhood condition, nearly half of new cases are now diagnosed in adulthood. T1D can lead to serious complications, including diabetic ketoacidosis, severe hypoglycemia, and eventually cardiometabolic disease. In today’s episode, Maeson Latsko, PhD and Franklin Warren discuss the T1D screening recommendation by the American diabetes Association and how this guidance gives physicians the opportunity to provide more timely, effective interventions, increasing the possibility of preventing complications. This episode will Outline what T1D is and the prevalence of T1D in both children and adults (2:00) Recognize the risk and complications associated with delayed or missed diagnosis, including diabetic ketoacidosis and long-term organ damage (6:20) Review the latest ADA recommendations for screening and early detection of T1D (8:00) To learn more, please review the additional resources below for information on our cardiovascular, metabolic, endocrine, and wellness offerings as well as educational resources and insights from our team of experts.
