Abstract 31: Patterns Of Healthcare Resource Utilization Among Adults With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus At Risk Of Cardiovascular Events In The Large Population-based Study To Help Improve Early Evaluation And Management Of Risk Factors Leading To Diabetes (SHIELD) [Poster Session I]
Conclusions: CVD events among T2DM patients continue to represent a very high economic burden on the healthcare system. HRU is very high among adults with T2DM at-risk of CVD events and significantly higher among those who had a new CVD event within 3 and 5 years compared with those who did not have a new CVD event.
