Module 1: The Burden of Early Stage Type 1 Diabetes and Diagnosis at Clinical Onset
This module explores the significant impact of T1D on individuals including psychosocial burden of early stage T1D, the burden of diagnosis at clinical onset and the importance of early detection and screening.
Chapter 1.1: The Impact of Early Stage T1D and Diagnosis at Clinical Onset
This sub-chapter will explore the psychosocial impact of earl stage T1D, the burden of diagnosis of T1D at clinical onset, and how both can benefit from the early identification of T1D via screening.
Learning Objective
- Recognize the psychological impact of living with with early stage (presymptomatic) T1D for young people and their families/caregivers.
Learning Objective
- Recognize the benefits of prior knowledge of at-risk status before clinical onset of T1D in children.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the rationale and potential benefits of early screening for T1D
- Identify key considerations for T1D screening programs, such as target populations, communication strategies, and follow-up care
- Recognize the personal and psychosocial impact of T1D screening, both for individuals living with T1D and their families
Chapter 1.2: The Importance of Communication and Education during Early Stage T1D to Reduce Burden
This sub-chapter will detail the importance of education and communication in early stage T1D to overcome potential psychosocial burden, as well as in raising public and healthcare professional awareness about the early detection of T1D.
Learning Objectives
- Explore the use of visual art and social media as tools for medical education and public awareness
- Recognize the importance of early detection and screening for T1D
