SUMMARY:DiCE Program - Taiwan (November 2019)
DESCRIPTION:Session Dates:\nNovember 7 – 9 \n\nSpeakers & Lecture Synopsis\n\n\nTOPIC 1: Diabetes In The Western Pacific Region: What Are We Missing\nJun Sing-Wang\, M.D.\, Ph.D.\nEndocrinologist \nThe goal of treatment for patients with diabetes is to maintain glycemic control to prevent or delay diabetes micro- and macro-vascular complications. Unfortunately\, it’s not easy to maintain glycemic control over time due to progressive β-cell dysfunction along with the prolonged disease duration. \nThere are additional barriers (such as hypoglycemia and barriers to insulin injection) that make maintaining glycemic control difficult in patients with diabetes. Moreover\, there are some differences in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes between Asians and Caucasians. Thus individualized treatment is clinically important in treating a disease with heterogeneous phenotypes. \nThere are several new glucose-lowering drugs that “might” improve diabetes treatment. In this talk\, I would like to discuss the challenges in treating type 2 diabetes in the Western Pacific Region\, and whether new drugs help improve diabetes care and decrease risk of complications. \n \nJun Sing-Wang\, M.D.\, Ph.D.\nEndocrinologist \nDr. Wang obtained his medical degree from Taipei Medical College (Taipei Taiwan) in 2001. After graduation\, he completed his resident training at Taichung Veteran General Hospital. Afterward he has worked as attending physician since 2009 at the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism of Taichung Veteran General Hospital. He had recently graduated from the Doctoral Program of the Institute of Clinical Medicine at National Yang-Ming University (Taipei Taiwan) in 2018.  \nDr. Wang actively participates in many medical societies in Taiwan\, including Taiwan Society of Internal Medicine\, The Endocrine Society of the R.O.C (Taiwan)\, the Diabetes Association of the R.O.C (Taiwan)\, and Taiwanese Association of Diabetes Educators. Now he holds the position of the Deputy Secretary General of the Diabetes Association of the Republic of China (Taiwan).  \nDr. Wang continuously contributes to clinical practice and researches. He is interested in researches related to diabetes\, metabolism\, and cardiovascular diseases. He has published several papers in some famous journals\, such as Diabetes Care\, Diabetes Metab Res Rev\, Diabetes Res Clin Pract\, …etc. He also joins in many international\, multi-centered phase III\, as well as phase IV\, studies in the field of endocrinology and metabolism.  \nTOPIC 2: Management of Diabetes Complications: Nephropathy and Cardiovascular Risk\nYi Jing-Sheen\, M.D.\nEndocrinologist \nDiabetes is a growing threat because of its increased incidence and prevalence. Chronic complications of diabetes including retinopathy\, neuropathy\, peripheral arterial disease\, cardiovascular diseases and diabetic foot disease which associated with neuropathy and peripheral arterial disease. Diabetes and diabetes-related complications caused a high economic burden on patients\, their families\, and society.  \nDiabetes is associated with damage to the blood vessels in the retina and leading to subsequent diabetic retinopathy\, which can lead to scarring and cell loss in the retina. Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading cause of permanent vision loss. Peripheral neuropathy is one of the most prevalent chronic complications of diabetes. The early detection of diabetic peripheral neuropathy is a challenge due to the heterogeneous presentation of its symptoms. Previous studies have reported that peripheral neuropathy affects approximately half of diabetes patients and up to half of diabetic peripheral neuropathy cases are asymptomatic. Diabetic neuropathy is a critical health issue that requires special attention. Peripheral arterial disease and neuropathy are responsible for diabetic foot diseases and amputations. Furthermore\, diabetes patients may have reduced life expectancy because of an increased risk of cerebrovascular and coronary artery diseases. Early detection and early prevention of these chronic complications to avoid disability of patients with diabetes were challenges for diabetes management. \nWe will introduce these recent developments in screen and prevent diabetic chronic complications and the clinical guideline for risk control. Furthermore\, we will share our successful experiences in establishing “one stop shop” for outpatient\, institution-wide glycemic management systems\, and the “multidisciplinary team” for diabetic foot car of TCVGH. \n \nYi Jing-Sheen\, M.D.\nEndocrinologist \nEDUCATION\n1992-1999 China Medical University\, Taichung\, Taiwan (Bachelor degree)\n2009-2011 Department of Health Services Administration\, China Medical University\, Taiwan (Master degree) \nEXPERIENCE\nResident of Internal Medicine\, China Medical university (July 2000 to July 2001)\nResident of Internal Medicine\, Taichung Hospital\, Department of Health\, Executive Yuan\, Taiwan (September 2001 to June 2005)\nChief Resident of Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Taichung Veterans General Hospital (July 2005 to July 2007)\nAdjunct Attending doctor of Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Taichung Veterans General Hospital (Oct 2009 to July 2011)\nAttending doctor of Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Taichung Hospital\, Ministry of Health and Welfare\, Taiwan (Oct 2007 till March 2017)\nDeputy director of Division of Medical Research and Education\, Taichung Hospital\, Ministry of Health and Welfare\, Taiwan (September 2011 till December 2012)\nAttending doctor of Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Department of Internal Medicine\, Taichung Veterans General Hospital (March 2017 till now). \n\nDay 1\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n9:00AM\nRegistration\n\n\n9:15AM\nWelcome Remarks\nIntroduction to the Program\n\n\n9:30AM\nLecture & Discussion 1\n\n\n10:30AM\nOpen Forum\n\n\n10:45AM\nRefreshments\n\n\n11:00AM\nLecture & Discussion 2\n\n\n12:00NN\nOpen Forum\n\n\n12:15PM\nPhoto Op with Speakers\n\n\n12:30PM\nLunch\n\n\n12:30PM\nWelcome Remarks\nTVGH Institutional Observership\n\n\n3:30PM\nEvaluation of Program\nAwarding of Certificates\nGroup Photo\n\n\n4:00PM\nAdjourn\n\n\n\n\nHospital \n\n\n \nTaichung Veterans General Hospital\nDivision of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Department of Internal Medicine\nNo. 1650號\, Section 4\, Taiwan Boulevard\, Xitun District\, Taichung City\, Taiwan 407 \nThe Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, one of units of Department of Internal Medicine\, Taichung Veterans General Hospital\, was founded in 1982.

In-vitro fertilization performed by this hospital helps the patient’s own “power to get pregnant”.  Instead of growing many eggs with an ovulation-inducing agent that does not exist in the body\, emphasis is placed on ovulation that occurs at the rhythm of each person\, and carefully treats each “good egg” that is easy to conceive as natural. We aim for pregnancy with limited medical support.  “Don’t touch anything more than necessary from the outside”.  This is Kato’s treatment policy. \nAt Kato Ladies’ Clinic they offer the following:  \nInfertility treatment both Male & Female – They have developed their own egg collection needle since 1999\, and now we have a thin egg collection needle (21 or 21) that has been devised at the tip to reduce pain by about half compared to the previous egg collection needle (17 gauge). Egg collection using 22 gauge). The blade at the tip of the needle is specially processed and designed to minimize damage to the tissue. This egg collection needle has mild pain and bleeding\, so there is no need for general anesthesia for egg collection. In addition\, since it does not put a heavy burden on the body\, the rest time after egg collection is about 15 minutes\, you can go home on the day. Their state of the art equipment allows them to perform procedures such as Assisted Hatch\, Vitrification freezing method (cryo top method) and Blastocyst Culture. \nPreservation of Eggs and Fertilized Eggs for Breast Cancer Patients – Kato Lady’s Clinic collects fertilized eggs and crypreserve eggs or patients who are suffering from breast cancer. This will enable cancer patients to be future mothers once their treatment has been completed.  \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.

In-vitro fertilization performed by this hospital helps the patient’s own “power to get pregnant”.  Instead of growing many eggs with an ovulation-inducing agent that does not exist in the body\, emphasis is placed on ovulation that occurs at the rhythm of each person\, and carefully treats each “good egg” that is easy to conceive as natural. We aim for pregnancy with limited medical support.  “Don’t touch anything more than necessary from the outside”.  This is Kato’s treatment policy. \nAt Kato Ladies’ Clinic they offer the following:  \nInfertility treatment both Male & Female – They have developed their own egg collection needle since 1999\, and now we have a thin egg collection needle (21 or 21) that has been devised at the tip to reduce pain by about half compared to the previous egg collection needle (17 gauge). Egg collection using 22 gauge). The blade at the tip of the needle is specially processed and designed to minimize damage to the tissue. This egg collection needle has mild pain and bleeding\, so there is no need for general anesthesia for egg collection. In addition\, since it does not put a heavy burden on the body\, the rest time after egg collection is about 15 minutes\, you can go home on the day. Their state of the art equipment allows them to perform procedures such as Assisted Hatch\, Vitrification freezing method (cryo top method) and Blastocyst Culture. \nPreservation of Eggs and Fertilized Eggs for Breast Cancer Patients – Kato Lady’s Clinic collects fertilized eggs and crypreserve eggs or patients who are suffering from breast cancer. This will enable cancer patients to be future mothers once their treatment has been completed.  \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.

SUMMARY:DiCE Program 2019 - Thailand (October)
DESCRIPTION:Session Dates:\nOctober 3 – 5 \n\nSpeakers & Lecture Synopsis\n\n\nTOPIC 1: THEPTARIN DIABETES STAGING:\nA Systematic Individualized Care Plan for People with Diabetes\nEkgaluck Wanothayaroj\, MD\nEndocrinologist\, Theptarin Hospital\, Thailand \nEach person with diabetes is different. Do we have different standard sets of care for each of them? Diabetes is so complicated; what one measurement can tell how well we do in controlling it? What one tool do we use to communicate the progression of diabetes between healthcare team members as well as person with diabetes and their care takers? Dividing diabetes into different stages has been discussed in the academic world for quite sometimes\, but actual implementation in clinical practice has yet to be documented. \nStarting more than 10 years ago\, diabetes team at Theptarin Hospital has drafted its first “Theptarin Diabetes Staging (TDS)” version. Today\, detail of TDS has been updated several times with additional clinical experiences and advancement in new medical knowledge. Today\, TDS has turned into the backbone for all multidisciplinary care team members to base their care stands on. Today\, quality of diabetes care is measured by monitoring TDS. Maybe\, in the near future TDS could have a role in health care financing as well. \n \nEKGALUCK WANOTHAYAROJ\, MD\nEndocrinologist\, BA Med. (Thailand)\, Board of Internal Medicine (Thailand)\, Board of Endocrinology (Thailand) \nDr. Ekgaluck received his medical degree from Chulalongkorn University\, Thailand in 2002. He completed his training in internal medicine from Khon Kaen University and fellowship in endocrinology from Ramathibodi Hospital\, Mahidol University\, Thailand in 2009 \nDr. Ekgaluck was a lecturer at Khon Kaen University prior to joining Theptarin Hospital in 2011. At Theptarin\, he is the leader in the implementation of Theptarin Diabetes Staging into practice for all multidisciplinary team members as well as the implementation of diabetes and cardiovascular screening process for early detection in hospital setting. \nDr.Ekgaluck is currently one of Thailand’s most-invited endocrinologist speakers\, a subcommittee member of Thai Association of Diabetes Educator\, and a subcommittee of the website of Thai Endocrine Society. He is the recipient of Etzwiler International Scholars 2018 from International Diabetes Center\, Minnesota\, USA. \nTOPIC 2: MANAGING CVD RISK IN PEOPLE WITH DIABETES: Managing Diabetes Risk in People with CVD\nNahathai Chatrasingha\, MD\nCardiologist\, Theptarin Hospital \n34 years ago when Theptarin opened its door\, diabetes was generally known and treated as a disease of high blood glucose.  Later when syndrome X was recognized\, diabetes has become known as a family member of the atherosclerosis family.  Today\, evidence strongly shows that diabetes not only associates with atherosclerotic heart disease but other heart complications such as heart failure or atrial fibrillation as well. \nDiabetes is categorized as a specialization of endocrinologists or diabetologists while heart diseases are categorized an expert area for cardiologists.  In the era of specialization like today and the situation that two diseases becoming same disease\, how can we best care for this two-in-one? \nMultidisciplinary team for diabetes care alone is probably not comprehensive enough anymore.  Diabetes team and cardiovascular team need to work together in arriving at best standard of care for prevention and treatment of both diabetes and heart diseases.  Monthly cardiology team and diabetes team at Theptarin Hospital sit together and discuss how to best treat as well as optimize screening process to prevent CVD in people with diabetes as well as diabetes in people with CVD.   \n \nNahathai Chatrasingha\, MD\nCardiologist\, Theptarin Hospital \nDr. Nahathai received her medical degree with first class honor and completed her internal medicine and cardiology training with master degree in Medical Sciences from Chulalongkorn University\, Thailand\, in 2016.  \nDr. Nahathai’s special interest is in echocardiography and had attended several trainings in the field.  At Theptarin\, she also had hands-on experience with verified proctors in several difficult interventions such as Periprocedural Echocardiographic Assessment of Transcatheter Left Atrial Appendage Occluder Implantation and Periprocedural Echocardiographic Assessment of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR). \nDr. Nahathai joined Theptarin since the inception of our iCATH Cardio Metabolic Center in 2016.  She performs as the right-hand man of Dr.Wason Udayachalerm\, Thailand’s most reputable intervention cardiologist and the director of iCATH.  Dr.Nahathai is the key person working with diabetes team in organizing monthly cardiometabolic meeting at Theptarin where diabetes and cardiology teams meet to discuss and drive implementation of academic knowledge to routine patient care at Theptarin.  Prevention of cardiovascular diseases in diabetes patients and prevention of diabetes in cardiovascular patients are top concerns of the group. \n\nDay 1 - Conference Proper\n\n\n\n\n\n8:00AM\nRegistration\n\n\n8:30AM\nWalk “Diabetes Escape”\n\n\n9:00AM\nOpening Remarks\nIntroduction to Theptarin\n\n\n9:10AM\nLecture 1\nOpen Forum\n\n\n10:30AM\nBreak – Refreshment\n\n\n10:40AM\nLecture 2\nOpen Forum\n\n\n12:00NN\nLunch\n\n\n13:00PM\nHospital Tour \n\nDiabetes Center (Clinic\, Exercise\, Diet)\nCardiology Center (Screening\, Intervention)\n\n\n\n\n14:30PM\nClosing Remarks\nAwarding of Certificates\nGroup Photo\n\n\n15:00PM\nEnd of Session\n\n\n\n\nHospital \n\n\n \nTheptarin Hospital\n3850 Rama 4 Rd.\, Phra Khanong\, Bangkok 10110 Thailand \nFrom Clinic to Center of Excellence \nProf. Thep Himathongkam was ahead of his time when he founded Theptarin in 1985\, initially as a small clinic. As far back as three decades ago\, he had already envisioned a model of holistic therapy for diabetes that aimed to empower patients who suffer from a disease that demands effective treatment and constant monitoring. The Theptarin Diabetes and Thyroid Center was created as a specialist in diabetes and thyroid management. While it opened with all but eight beds for overnight admission\, the clinic was huge in its all-encompassing commitment to excellence in service\, education for both healthcare professionals and patients\, and to research. It was this emphasis on developing a three-pronged expertise that gave life to the first diabetes care team of Thailand which included an endocrinologist\, a nurse to educate patients on diabetes\, and a dietitian to support proper nutrition. \nSeven years later\, it evolved into the Theptarin Hospital\, acquiring new skills\, equipment\, and team specialists in order to meet the ever-changing needs of patients. The Hospital began to offer 24-hour services\, distal bypass surgery\, hyperbaric medicine\, and even launched Thailand’s fi­rst foot clinic specializing in diabetic foot wound care and prevention. \nBecause continuous evolution had always been at the core of its quest for excellence\, when scientific studies revealed in 2005 that diabetes is a preventable condition\, Theptarin Hospital jumped at the opportunity to further enhance its range of therapeutic services. From simply preventing diabetes-related complications\, it set up a “Lifestyle Building” to also promote the prevention of diabetes and associated chronic diseases. Subsequently\, the Hospital introduced its MEDE Health Solution Club and Weight Management Clinic to advocate healthy daily living\, behavior modi­fication\, and optimal quality of life for both diabetes patients and the general public. \nFrom a humble clinic with noble dreams\, Theptarin Hospital has now become a standout amongst private\nhospitals mainly because of its clear focus on developing high quality patient care – from expanded medical teams composed of specialists from diverse branches of healthcare to world-class facilities. Its passion to raise public awareness on diabetes also makes Theptarin Hospital a cut above the rest. The level of excellence achieved by the institution has made it a source of sought-after resource speakers and a training center for students and professionals from local and international healthcare establishments. \nIn addition\, not only was Theptarin Hospital entrusted by the Thai government to train its staff in implementing nationwide behavior modification activities\, it was also appointed in 2011 by the World Diabetes Foundation (Denmark) to serve as a center of excellence for training healthcare personnel throughout Southeast Asia. It continues to pursue increased awareness on the early detection and timely risk reduction of diabetes toward the prevention or prolonged onset of this most prevalent disease. Theptarin Hospital has also earned its stripes as the ­first thyroid center to offer complete diagnosis and treatment\, acting as a transfer center for both domestic and international patients. \nIn 2015\, a team of country’s leading cardiologists co-invested to open one of the most comprehensive\ncardiology with services ranging from screening through interventions including complicated catheterization\, open-heart surgeries\, and 24-hour cardiac services. Cardiology team and diabetes team hold academic and service meetings monthly allowing flow of communication and making the care of the two specialties coherent and optimal. \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.

In-vitro fertilization performed by this hospital helps the patient’s own “power to get pregnant”.  Instead of growing many eggs with an ovulation-inducing agent that does not exist in the body\, emphasis is placed on ovulation that occurs at the rhythm of each person\, and carefully treats each “good egg” that is easy to conceive as natural. We aim for pregnancy with limited medical support.  “Don’t touch anything more than necessary from the outside”.  This is Kato’s treatment policy. \nAt Kato Ladies’ Clinic they offer the following:  \nInfertility treatment both Male & Female – They have developed their own egg collection needle since 1999\, and now we have a thin egg collection needle (21 or 21) that has been devised at the tip to reduce pain by about half compared to the previous egg collection needle (17 gauge). Egg collection using 22 gauge). The blade at the tip of the needle is specially processed and designed to minimize damage to the tissue. This egg collection needle has mild pain and bleeding\, so there is no need for general anesthesia for egg collection. In addition\, since it does not put a heavy burden on the body\, the rest time after egg collection is about 15 minutes\, you can go home on the day. Their state of the art equipment allows them to perform procedures such as Assisted Hatch\, Vitrification freezing method (cryo top method) and Blastocyst Culture. \nPreservation of Eggs and Fertilized Eggs for Breast Cancer Patients – Kato Lady’s Clinic collects fertilized eggs and crypreserve eggs or patients who are suffering from breast cancer. This will enable cancer patients to be future mothers once their treatment has been completed.  \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.

SUMMARY:ILE PEDIA FORUM - Bangkok\, Thailand (August 2019)
DESCRIPTION:Session Dates:\nAugust 14 – 16 \n\nSpeakers & Lecture Synopsis\n\n\nTOPIC 1: Global Trend To Improve Neonatal Outcomes\nSupapannachart Sarayut\, MD\, PhD\nPerinatologist/Neonatologist\, Mahidol University\, Thailand \nBetter neonatal care reduces mortality rate. However\, the challenge is to improve the outcomes among surviving neonates. Healthcare personnel needs to understand common neonatal problems in order to give better care to these patients. In this session\, we will focus on common neonatal problems including jaundice\, perinatal asphyxia and updated practice in neonatal resuscitation. \nNeonatal jaundice is one of the most common neonatal problems. In appropriate management may result in bad consequences such as acute encephalopathy\, kernicterus or hearing loss which lead to poor long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes. Guideline of neonatal jaundice management\, effective phototherapy and identification of high risk group are essential. \nCompetency in neonatal resuscitation is crucial\, especially in the delivery room\, to ensure the safety of neonates and decrease perinatal asphyxia. Currently\, an updated neonatal resuscitation guideline (2015) has been used. There are some changes in the recommendation compared to the previous version such as no need to direct tracheal suction in non-vigorous neonates with meconium-stain amniotic fluid and modified corrective steps (MRSOPA)\, etc. \nPerinatal asphyxia is another serious issue causing disability and death in neonates. New therapies such as therapeutic hypothermia and other adjunctive therapies have been found to decrease morbidity and mortality rate. However\, good supportive care is important to contribute good outcomes. \n \nSupapannachart Sarayut\, MD\, PhD\nPerinatologist/Neonatologist\, Mahidol University\, Thailand \nEDUCATION\n1977-1980 B.S.

They are a major cause of morbidity in children. Early diagnosis and proper treatments is required the best outcome. Food allergies develop early in life and majority of them are outgrown in adulthood\, and most of food allergic children have respiratory allergy at school age. Diagnosis of allergic diseases require through history taking and appropriate investigations. Treatments are consisting appropriate allergen avoidance and pharmacological treatments.

Stunting and wasting remain predominate in many countries and parts of Asia\, whereas overweight and obesity has been on the rise\, at an astonishing rate in some countries. Moreover\, various vitamin and mineral deficiencies\, the major ones: vitamin A. iron and iodine\, are persistent in most Asian countries. The situation is termed Double Burden of Malnutrition (DBMN)\, implicating the co-existence of the two ends of malnutrition. Global movement has given impetus to alleviate malnutrition of all its forms. The World Health Assembly has set targets for achievements in 2025 to include reduction of stunting and wasting in young children\, low birthweight\, anemia in women and children\, increase in the rate of exclusive breastfeeding and curbing the rise of childhood obesity. In addition\, nine targets for non-communicable diseases (NCD) are included\, namely\, halting the rise of obesity\, diabetes and hypertension\, reduction in salt and alcohol intakes\, and tobacco use\, increase physical activity and access to therapy for heart attack and stroke. \nCommunity-based nutrition programs and multi-sectoral policy have been successful in countries\, such as Thailand\, Indonesia\, Nepal and some states in India\, resulted in substantial reduction of maternal and child undernutrition. However\, accompanying this trend\, the rapid rises of childhood obesity and adult NCDs were observed. This is a very important lesson learned and raised the question on how to derive a better policy and program that address malnutrition of all its forms. The recent knowledge from the developmental origin of diseases also brought about the new perspective that risks of obesity and NCD lies in the early stage of life. Nutrition during the ‘first 1000d’\, i.e.\, from conception (or even before) through the age of 24 months is the critical period and the window of opportunity for lifelong health. In low and middle income countries (LMIC) in Asia\, maternal and child malnutrition has been implemented in most countries and need to be strengthened in light of this new perspective. Efforts to improve nutrition should be moving away from treating nutrient deficiencies that only confined nutrition-specific interventions (food or nutrient supplementation\, food aids and even food fortification). The comprehensive nutrition-specific interventions and nutrition-sensitive interventions\, i.e.\, multi-sectoral\, integrated program that include food production/system\, water sanitation\, to name a few\, while more complex\, is promising in alleviating all forms of malnutrition. Maternal nutrition needs to be given higher priority and explicit nutrition components in the antenatal and postnatal care are essential to meet fetal and early infancy nutritional needs\, as well as that of mothers. In addition to benefits for growth and development/cognition of the offspring\, proper maternal nutrition is also crucial to prevent the risks of NCDs in both mothers and children in later life. \n \nPattanee Wichinagoon\, PhD\nAssociate Professor\, Institute of Nutrition\, Mahidol University\, Thailand \nEDUCATION\n1991 Ph.D. (International Nutrition)\, Cornell University\, U.S.A.\n1976 M.Sc.

In August 1964\, the Cabinet approved the plan of setting up a new medical school which would be located around the Phyathai area\, Bangkok\, Thailand. HM King Bhumibol Adulyadej graciously conferred the name on the new school of medicine “Ramathibodi” and laid the foundation stone for the building on December 30th\, 1965. Four years later\, the King came to open the new faculty of medicine on May 3rd\, 1969. Apart from the Government’s fund\, the Faculty was financially and academically supported by the Rockefeller Foundation from the United States of America. Since then the Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital has been fully equipped and has provided medical education and research facilities to the public. Moreover\, it serves patients in Bankgok and from all over Thailand. \nThe Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital has two principal buildings to serve 5\,000 out-patients per day; first building\, Main Building\, mainly provides more than 1\,000 beds for the tertiary care of complicated and severely ill patients in various specializing departments and units. The second building\, the Sirikit Medical Center\, serves as a center for modern research projects\, namely\, bone marrow transplantation project\, the project of Advanced Diagnostic Imaging Center (AIMC). It also houses modern operating rooms and intensive care units. \nA new and state-of-the-art medical center named “Somdech Phra Debaratana Building” serves as the most excellent service complex for thousands of out-patients. The building will have well-equipped facilities to perform high standards of healthcare in the Southeast Asian region. It will provide 350 beds\, 16 operating rooms and 14 Intensive Care Units\, and also comprehensive service centers such as Stem Cell Transplantation\, Minimal Invasive Endoscopic Surgery Center\, Elderly Care Unit\, Child Development Center and Complicated Diseases Service by specialized doctors. \nSource: https://med.mahidol.ac.th/en/ \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.

SUMMARY:DiCE Program - Taiwan (August 2019)
DESCRIPTION:Session Dates:\nAugust 7 – 9 \n\nSpeakers & Lecture Synopsis\n\n\nTOPIC 1: Diabetes In The Western Pacific Region: What Are We Missing\nJun Sing-Wang\, M.D.\, Ph.D.\nEndocrinologist \nThe goal of treatment for patients with diabetes is to maintain glycemic control to prevent or delay diabetes micro- and macro-vascular complications. Unfortunately\, it’s not easy to maintain glycemic control over time due to progressive β-cell dysfunction along with the prolonged disease duration. \nThere are additional barriers (such as hypoglycemia and barriers to insulin injection) that make maintaining glycemic control difficult in patients with diabetes. Moreover\, there are some differences in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes between Asians and Caucasians. Thus individualized treatment is clinically important in treating a disease with heterogeneous phenotypes. \nThere are several new glucose-lowering drugs that “might” improve diabetes treatment. In this talk\, I would like to discuss the challenges in treating type 2 diabetes in the Western Pacific Region\, and whether new drugs help improve diabetes care and decrease risk of complications. \n \nJun Sing-Wang\, M.D.\, Ph.D.\nEndocrinologist \nDr. Wang obtained his medical degree from Taipei Medical College (Taipei Taiwan) in 2001. After graduation\, he completed his resident training at Taichung Veteran General Hospital. Afterward he has worked as attending physician since 2009 at the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism of Taichung Veteran General Hospital. He had recently graduated from the Doctoral Program of the Institute of Clinical Medicine at National Yang-Ming University (Taipei Taiwan) in 2018.  \nDr. Wang actively participates in many medical societies in Taiwan\, including Taiwan Society of Internal Medicine\, The Endocrine Society of the R.O.C (Taiwan)\, the Diabetes Association of the R.O.C (Taiwan)\, and Taiwanese Association of Diabetes Educators. Now he holds the position of the Deputy Secretary General of the Diabetes Association of the Republic of China (Taiwan).  \nDr. Wang continuously contributes to clinical practice and researches. He is interested in researches related to diabetes\, metabolism\, and cardiovascular diseases. He has published several papers in some famous journals\, such as Diabetes Care\, Diabetes Metab Res Rev\, Diabetes Res Clin Pract\, …etc. He also joins in many international\, multi-centered phase III\, as well as phase IV\, studies in the field of endocrinology and metabolism.  \nTOPIC 2: Management of Diabetes Complications: Retinopathy and Diabetic Foot\nYi Jing-Sheen\, M.D.\nEndocrinologist \nDiabetes is a growing threat because of its increased incidence and prevalence. Chronic complications of diabetes including retinopathy\, neuropathy\, peripheral arterial disease\, cardiovascular diseases and diabetic foot disease which associated with neuropathy and peripheral arterial disease. Diabetes and diabetes-related complications caused a high economic burden on patients\, their families\, and society. \nDiabetes is associated with damage to the blood vessels in the retina and leading to subsequent diabetic retinopathy\, which can lead to scarring and cell loss in the retina. Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading cause of permanent vision loss. Peripheral neuropathy is one of the most prevalent chronic complications of diabetes. The early detection of diabetic peripheral neuropathy is a challenge due to the heterogeneous presentation of its symptoms. Previous studies have reported that peripheral neuropathy affects approximately half of diabetes patients and up to half of diabetic peripheral neuropathy cases are asymptomatic. Diabetic neuropathy is a critical health issue that requires special attention. Peripheral arterial disease and neuropathy are responsible for diabetic foot diseases and amputations. Furthermore\, diabetes patients may have reduced life expectancy because of an increased risk of cerebrovascular and coronary artery diseases. Early detection and early prevention of these chronic complications to avoid disability of patients with diabetes were challenges for diabetes management. \nWe will introduce these recent developments in screen and prevent diabetic chronic complications and the clinical guideline for risk control. Furthermore\, we will share our successful experiences in establishing “one stop shop” for outpatient\, institution-wide glycemic management systems\, and the “multidisciplinary team” for diabetic foot car of TCVGH. \n \nYi Jing-Sheen\, M.D.\nEndocrinologist \nEDUCATION\n1992-1999 China Medical University\, Taichung\, Taiwan (Bachelor degree)\n2009-2011 Department of Health Services Administration\, China Medical University\, Taiwan (Master degree) \nEXPERIENCE\nResident of Internal Medicine\, China Medical university (July 2000 to July 2001)\nResident of Internal Medicine\, Taichung Hospital\, Department of Health\, Executive Yuan\, Taiwan (September 2001 to June 2005)\nChief Resident of Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Taichung Veterans General Hospital (July 2005 to July 2007)\nAdjunct Attending doctor of Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Taichung Veterans General Hospital (Oct 2009 to July 2011)\nAttending doctor of Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Taichung Hospital\, Ministry of Health and Welfare\, Taiwan (Oct 2007 till March 2017)\nDeputy director of Division of Medical Research and Education\, Taichung Hospital\, Ministry of Health and Welfare\, Taiwan (September 2011 till December 2012)\nAttending doctor of Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Department of Internal Medicine\, Taichung Veterans General Hospital (March 2017 till now). \n\nDay 1\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n9:00AM\nRegistration\n\n\n9:15AM\nWelcome Remarks\nIntroduction to the Program\n\n\n9:30AM\nLecture & Discussion 1\n\n\n10:30AM\nOpen Forum\n\n\n10:45AM\nRefreshments\n\n\n11:00AM\nLecture & Discussion 2\n\n\n12:00NN\nOpen Forum\n\n\n12:15PM\nPhoto Op with Speakers\n\n\n12:30PM\nLunch\n\n\n12:30PM\nWelcome Remarks\nTVGH Institutional Observership\n\n\n3:30PM\nEvaluation of Program\nAwarding of Certificates\nGroup Photo\n\n\n4:00PM\nAdjourn\n\n\n\n\nHospital \n\n\n \nTaichung Veterans General Hospital\nDivision of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, Department of Internal Medicine\nNo. 1650號\, Section 4\, Taiwan Boulevard\, Xitun District\, Taichung City\, Taiwan 407 \nThe Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism\, one of units of Department of Internal Medicine\, Taichung Veterans General Hospital\, was founded in 1982.

SUMMARY:ILE PEDIA FORUM - Bangkok\, Thailand (July 2019)
DESCRIPTION:Session Dates:\nJuly 29 – 31 \n\nSpeakers & Lecture Synopsis\n\n\nTOPIC 1: Global Trend To Improve Neonatal Outcomes\nSupapannachart Sarayut\, MD\, PhD\nPerinatologist/Neonatologist\, Mahidol University\, Thailand \nBetter neonatal care reduces mortality rate. However\, the challenge is to improve the outcomes among surviving neonates. Healthcare personnel needs to understand common neonatal problems in order to give better care to these patients. In this session\, we will focus on common neonatal problems including jaundice\, perinatal asphyxia and updated practice in neonatal resuscitation. \nNeonatal jaundice is one of the most common neonatal problems. In appropriate management may result in bad consequences such as acute encephalopathy\, kernicterus or hearing loss which lead to poor long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes. Guideline of neonatal jaundice management\, effective phototherapy and identification of high risk group are essential. \nCompetency in neonatal resuscitation is crucial\, especially in the delivery room\, to ensure the safety of neonates and decrease perinatal asphyxia. Currently\, an updated neonatal resuscitation guideline (2015) has been used. There are some changes in the recommendation compared to the previous version such as no need to direct tracheal suction in non-vigorous neonates with meconium-stain amniotic fluid and modified corrective steps (MRSOPA)\, etc. \nPerinatal asphyxia is another serious issue causing disability and death in neonates. New therapies such as therapeutic hypothermia and other adjunctive therapies have been found to decrease morbidity and mortality rate. However\, good supportive care is important to contribute good outcomes. \n \nSupapannachart Sarayut\, MD\, PhD\nPerinatologist/Neonatologist\, Mahidol University\, Thailand \nEDUCATION\n1977-1980 B.S.

However\, allergic children require long term monitoring for the best outcome for our children. \n \nWiparat Manuyakorn\, MD\, PhD\nPediatric Allergology & Immunology\, Mahidol University\, Thailand \nEDUCATION\nMay 1992-April 1998   Medical Degree with First class honors\nFaculty of Medicine\, Chulalongkorn University\, Bangkok\, Thailand \nPOSTGRADUATE TRAINING\nOctober 2009 – December 2011   Doctor of Philosophy\nDivision of Infection\, Inflammation and Immunity\, Faculty of Medicine\, University of Southampton\nJune 2004- May 2006   Pediatric Allergy and Immunology Clinical Fellow\nDepartment of Pediatrics\, Faculty of Medicine\, Ramathibodi Hospital\, Mahidol University\, Bangkok\, Thailand\nJune 2001- May 2004   Residency in Pediatrics\nDepartment of Pediatrics\, Faculty of Medicine\, Chulalongkorn University\, Bangkok\, Thailand\nJune 2001- May 2003   Master of Science in Pediatrics\nDepartment of Pediatrics\, Faculty of Medicine\, Chulalongkorn University\, Bangkok\, Thailand \nRECENT WORK EXPERIENCE\nJan 2017-present   Associate professor\nDepartment of Pediatrics\, Faculty of Medicine\, Ramathibodi Hospital\, Mahidol University\, Bangkok\, Thailand \nSep 2013-Dec 2016  Assistant Professor\nDepartment of Pediatrics\, Faculty of Medicine\, Ramathibodi Hospital\, Mahidol University\, Bangkok\, Thailand \nAug 2007-Sep 2013  Lecturer\nDepartment of Pediatrics\, Faculty of Medicine\, Ramathibodi Hospital\, Mahidol University\, Bangkok\, Thailand \nPROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS\n1998 – present Member of Medical Council of Thailand\n2004 – present Member of the Pediatric Society of Thailand\n2004 – present Member of the Thai Royal College of Pediatrics\n2005 – present Member of the Allergy and Immunology Society of Thailand\n2005 – present Member of the American Academy of Allergy Asthma&Immunology\n2005 – present Member of the European Academy of Allergology and Clinical Immunolgy Organization\n2006 – present Member of World Allergy Organization \nTOPIC 3: Nutrition of Children In Asia: Current Situation And Future Prospect\nPattanee Wichinagoon\, PhD\nAssociate Professor\, Institute of Nutrition\, Mahidol University\, Thailand \nAsia is among the largest continent and the most populated region\, considering India and China having the highest populations in the world. Stunting and wasting remain predominate in many countries and parts of Asia\, whereas overweight and obesity has been on the rise\, at an astonishing rate in some countries. Moreover\, various vitamin and mineral deficiencies\, the major ones: vitamin A. iron and iodine\, are persistent in most Asian countries. The situation is termed Double Burden of Malnutrition (DBMN)\, implicating the co-existence of the two ends of malnutrition. Global movement has given impetus to alleviate malnutrition of all its forms. The World Health Assembly has set targets for achievements in 2025 to include reduction of stunting and wasting in young children\, low birthweight\, anemia in women and children\, increase in the rate of exclusive breastfeeding and curbing the rise of childhood obesity. In addition\, nine targets for non-communicable diseases (NCD) are included\, namely\, halting the rise of obesity\, diabetes and hypertension\, reduction in salt and alcohol intakes\, and tobacco use\, increase physical activity and access to therapy for heart attack and stroke. \nCommunity-based nutrition programs and multi-sectoral policy have been successful in countries\, such as Thailand\, Indonesia\, Nepal and some states in India\, resulted in substantial reduction of maternal and child undernutrition. However\, accompanying this trend\, the rapid rises of childhood obesity and adult NCDs were observed. This is a very important lesson learned and raised the question on how to derive a better policy and program that address malnutrition of all its forms. The recent knowledge from the developmental origin of diseases also brought about the new perspective that risks of obesity and NCD lies in the early stage of life. Nutrition during the ‘first 1000d’\, i.e.\, from conception (or even before) through the age of 24 months is the critical period and the window of opportunity for lifelong health. In low and middle income countries (LMIC) in Asia\, maternal and child malnutrition has been implemented in most countries and need to be strengthened in light of this new perspective. Efforts to improve nutrition should be moving away from treating nutrient deficiencies that only confined nutrition-specific interventions (food or nutrient supplementation\, food aids and even food fortification). The comprehensive nutrition-specific interventions and nutrition-sensitive interventions\, i.e.\, multi-sectoral\, integrated program that include food production/system\, water sanitation\, to name a few\, while more complex\, is promising in alleviating all forms of malnutrition. Maternal nutrition needs to be given higher priority and explicit nutrition components in the antenatal and postnatal care are essential to meet fetal and early infancy nutritional needs\, as well as that of mothers. In addition to benefits for growth and development/cognition of the offspring\, proper maternal nutrition is also crucial to prevent the risks of NCDs in both mothers and children in later life. \n \nPattanee Wichinagoon\, PhD\nAssociate Professor\, Institute of Nutrition\, Mahidol University\, Thailand \nEDUCATION\n1991 Ph.D. (International Nutrition)\, Cornell University\, U.S.A.\n1976 M.Sc.

In August 1964\, the Cabinet approved the plan of setting up a new medical school which would be located around the Phyathai area\, Bangkok\, Thailand. HM King Bhumibol Adulyadej graciously conferred the name on the new school of medicine “Ramathibodi” and laid the foundation stone for the building on December 30th\, 1965. Four years later\, the King came to open the new faculty of medicine on May 3rd\, 1969. Apart from the Government’s fund\, the Faculty was financially and academically supported by the Rockefeller Foundation from the United States of America. Since then the Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital has been fully equipped and has provided medical education and research facilities to the public. Moreover\, it serves patients in Bankgok and from all over Thailand. \nThe Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital has two principal buildings to serve 5\,000 out-patients per day; first building\, Main Building\, mainly provides more than 1\,000 beds for the tertiary care of complicated and severely ill patients in various specializing departments and units. The second building\, the Sirikit Medical Center\, serves as a center for modern research projects\, namely\, bone marrow transplantation project\, the project of Advanced Diagnostic Imaging Center (AIMC). It also houses modern operating rooms and intensive care units. \nA new and state-of-the-art medical center named “Somdech Phra Debaratana Building” serves as the most excellent service complex for thousands of out-patients. The building will have well-equipped facilities to perform high standards of healthcare in the Southeast Asian region. It will provide 350 beds\, 16 operating rooms and 14 Intensive Care Units\, and also comprehensive service centers such as Stem Cell Transplantation\, Minimal Invasive Endoscopic Surgery Center\, Elderly Care Unit\, Child Development Center and Complicated Diseases Service by specialized doctors. \nSource: https://med.mahidol.ac.th/en/ \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.

SUMMARY:DiCE Program 2019 - Thailand (July)
DESCRIPTION:Session Dates:\nJuly 4 – 6 \n\nSpeakers & Lecture Synopsis\n\n\nTOPIC 1: THEPTARIN DIABETES STAGING:\nA Systematic Individualized Care Plan for People with Diabetes\nEkgaluck Wanothayaroj\, MD\nEndocrinologist\, Theptarin Hospital\, Thailand \nEach person with diabetes is different. Do we have different standard sets of care for each of them? Diabetes is so complicated; what one measurement can tell how well we do in controlling it? What one tool do we use to communicate the progression of diabetes between healthcare team members as well as person with diabetes and their care takers? Dividing diabetes into different stages has been discussed in the academic world for quite sometimes\, but actual implementation in clinical practice has yet to be documented. \nStarting more than 10 years ago\, diabetes team at Theptarin Hospital has drafted its first “Theptarin Diabetes Staging (TDS)” version. Today\, detail of TDS has been updated several times with additional clinical experiences and advancement in new medical knowledge. Today\, TDS has turned into the backbone for all multidisciplinary care team members to base their care stands on. Today\, quality of diabetes care is measured by monitoring TDS. Maybe\, in the near future TDS could have a role in health care financing as well. \n \nEKGALUCK WANOTHAYAROJ\, MD\nEndocrinologist\, BA Med. (Thailand)\, Board of Internal Medicine (Thailand)\, Board of Endocrinology (Thailand) \nDr. Ekgaluck received his medical degree from Chulalongkorn University\, Thailand in 2002. He completed his training in internal medicine from Khon Kaen University and fellowship in endocrinology from Ramathibodi Hospital\, Mahidol University\, Thailand in 2009 \nDr. Ekgaluck was a lecturer at Khon Kaen University prior to joining Theptarin Hospital in 2011. At Theptarin\, he is the leader in the implementation of Theptarin Diabetes Staging into practice for all multidisciplinary team members as well as the implementation of diabetes and cardiovascular screening process for early detection in hospital setting. \nDr.Ekgaluck is currently one of Thailand’s most-invited endocrinologist speakers\, a subcommittee member of Thai Association of Diabetes Educator\, and a subcommittee of the website of Thai Endocrine Society. He is the recipient of Etzwiler International Scholars 2018 from International Diabetes Center\, Minnesota\, USA. \nTOPIC 2: HOSPITAL UPSIDE DOWN: Driving a Mission to Prevent the Sick in a Place for the Sick\nMs. Tanya Vannapruegs\n Associate Director\, Theptarin Hospital \nTheptarin started from driving for patient education for self-care to control diabetes and prevent complications\, a secondary prevention. Starting in 2002 when Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) Study came out and proved that diabetes can be prevention through lifestyle modification. Since then\, Theptarin has expanded its scope of work to cover primary prevention in addition to the original secondary prevention. It is a hospital that challenge the definition of its own identity “hospital”. Who said hospital is only for the sicks? If you do not want to get sick\, come to Theptarin “hospital.”   \n \nMs. Tanya Vannapruegs\nHospital Administrator \nMs.Tanya received her bachelor of arts from Tufts University and completed her master in public health and master in business administration from the University of California at Berkeley\, USA.    \nHaving grown up and lived in Thailand’s first diabetes center for more than 30 years\, attending hospital and academic meetings as well as writing and editing diabetes-related health articles and books\, Ms.Tanya has naturally absorbed and understood the importance and progress of how Thailand’s first diabetes multi-disciplinary care team has formed and currently operated.   \nMs.Tanya has formally joined Theptarin team for 18 years and is now the associate director in charge of lifestyle for disease prevention mission.  Her work includes internal and external communication and involves connecting with government agencies and other health-related sectors such universities\, professional associations\, and pharmaceutical companies. \n\nDay 1 - Conference Proper\n\n\n\n\n\n8:00AM\nRegistration\n\n\n8:30AM\nWalk “Diabetes Escape”\n\n\n9:00AM\nOpening Remarks\nIntroduction to Theptarin\n\n\n9:10AM\nLecture 1\nOpen Forum\n\n\n10:30AM\nBreak – Refreshment\n\n\n10:40AM\nLecture 2\nOpen Forum\n\n\n12:00NN\nLunch\n\n\n13:00PM\nHospital Tour \n\nDiabetes Center (Clinic\, Exercise\, Diet)\nCardiology Center (Screening\, Intervention)\n\n\n\n\n14:30PM\nClosing Remarks\nAwarding of Certificates\nGroup Photo\n\n\n15:00PM\nEnd of Session\n\n\n\n\nHospital \n\n\n \nTheptarin Hospital\n3850 Rama 4 Rd.\, Phra Khanong\, Bangkok 10110 Thailand \nFrom Clinic to Center of Excellence \nProf. Thep Himathongkam was ahead of his time when he founded Theptarin in 1985\, initially as a small clinic. As far back as three decades ago\, he had already envisioned a model of holistic therapy for diabetes that aimed to empower patients who suffer from a disease that demands effective treatment and constant monitoring. The Theptarin Diabetes and Thyroid Center was created as a specialist in diabetes and thyroid management. While it opened with all but eight beds for overnight admission\, the clinic was huge in its all-encompassing commitment to excellence in service\, education for both healthcare professionals and patients\, and to research. It was this emphasis on developing a three-pronged expertise that gave life to the first diabetes care team of Thailand which included an endocrinologist\, a nurse to educate patients on diabetes\, and a dietitian to support proper nutrition. \nSeven years later\, it evolved into the Theptarin Hospital\, acquiring new skills\, equipment\, and team specialists in order to meet the ever-changing needs of patients. The Hospital began to offer 24-hour services\, distal bypass surgery\, hyperbaric medicine\, and even launched Thailand’s fi­rst foot clinic specializing in diabetic foot wound care and prevention. \nBecause continuous evolution had always been at the core of its quest for excellence\, when scientific studies revealed in 2005 that diabetes is a preventable condition\, Theptarin Hospital jumped at the opportunity to further enhance its range of therapeutic services. From simply preventing diabetes-related complications\, it set up a “Lifestyle Building” to also promote the prevention of diabetes and associated chronic diseases. Subsequently\, the Hospital introduced its MEDE Health Solution Club and Weight Management Clinic to advocate healthy daily living\, behavior modi­fication\, and optimal quality of life for both diabetes patients and the general public. \nFrom a humble clinic with noble dreams\, Theptarin Hospital has now become a standout amongst private\nhospitals mainly because of its clear focus on developing high quality patient care – from expanded medical teams composed of specialists from diverse branches of healthcare to world-class facilities. Its passion to raise public awareness on diabetes also makes Theptarin Hospital a cut above the rest. The level of excellence achieved by the institution has made it a source of sought-after resource speakers and a training center for students and professionals from local and international healthcare establishments. \nIn addition\, not only was Theptarin Hospital entrusted by the Thai government to train its staff in implementing nationwide behavior modification activities\, it was also appointed in 2011 by the World Diabetes Foundation (Denmark) to serve as a center of excellence for training healthcare personnel throughout Southeast Asia. It continues to pursue increased awareness on the early detection and timely risk reduction of diabetes toward the prevention or prolonged onset of this most prevalent disease. Theptarin Hospital has also earned its stripes as the ­first thyroid center to offer complete diagnosis and treatment\, acting as a transfer center for both domestic and international patients. \nIn 2015\, a team of country’s leading cardiologists co-invested to open one of the most comprehensive\ncardiology with services ranging from screening through interventions including complicated catheterization\, open-heart surgeries\, and 24-hour cardiac services. Cardiology team and diabetes team hold academic and service meetings monthly allowing flow of communication and making the care of the two specialties coherent and optimal. \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.

SUMMARY:DiCE Program 2019 – Thailand (May)
DESCRIPTION:Session Dates:\nMay 9 – 11 \n\nSpeakers & Lecture Synopsis\n\n\nTOPIC 1: THEPTARIN DIABETES STAGING:\nA Systematic Individualized Care Plan for People with Diabetes\nEkgaluck Wanothayaroj\, MD\nEndocrinologist\, Theptarin Hospital\, Thailand \nEach person with diabetes is different. Do we have different standard sets of care for each of them? Diabetes is so complicated; what one measurement can tell how well we do in controlling it? What one tool do we use to communicate the progression of diabetes between healthcare team members as well as person with diabetes and their care takers? Dividing diabetes into different stages has been discussed in the academic world for quite sometimes\, but actual implementation in clinical practice has yet to be documented. \nStarting more than 10 years ago\, diabetes team at Theptarin Hospital has drafted its first “Theptarin Diabetes Staging (TDS)” version. Today\, detail of TDS has been updated several times with additional clinical experiences and advancement in new medical knowledge. Today\, TDS has turned into the backbone for all multidisciplinary care team members to base their care stands on. Today\, quality of diabetes care is measured by monitoring TDS. Maybe\, in the near future TDS could have a role in health care financing as well. \n \nEKGALUCK WANOTHAYAROJ\, MD\nEndocrinologist\, BA Med. (Thailand)\, Board of Internal Medicine (Thailand)\, Board of Endocrinology (Thailand) \nDr. Ekgaluck received his medical degree from Chulalongkorn University\, Thailand in 2002. He completed his training in internal medicine from Khon Kaen University and fellowship in endocrinology from Ramathibodi Hospital\, Mahidol University\, Thailand in 2009 \nDr. Ekgaluck was a lecturer at Khon Kaen University prior to joining Theptarin Hospital in 2011. At Theptarin\, he is the leader in the implementation of Theptarin Diabetes Staging into practice for all multidisciplinary team members as well as the implementation of diabetes and cardiovascular screening process for early detection in hospital setting. \nDr.Ekgaluck is currently one of Thailand’s most-invited endocrinologist speakers\, a subcommittee member of Thai Association of Diabetes Educator\, and a subcommittee of the website of Thai Endocrine Society. He is the recipient of Etzwiler International Scholars 2018 from International Diabetes Center\, Minnesota\, USA. \nTOPIC 2: Beyond the Randomized Control Trial: Why we have to do Real-World Evidence (RWE) in our population?\nYOTSAPON THEWJITCHAROEN\, M.D.\nEndocrinologist\, Theptarin Hospital\, Thailand \nDiabetes is a progressive disease that needs multiple drugs for achieving and maintaining good glycemic control.  Despite advancement in the treatment of T2DM\, optimal glycemic control has not been achieved in almost half of patients in the US or almost 70% in Southeast Asia including Thailand.  Landmark clinical trials have shown that we can delay and possibly prevent the onset of diabetes in many individuals at high risk.  Unfortunately\, the magnitude of the effort we undertake might not be enough and sustainable especially in the context of Asian population.  The screening tests for pre-diabetes are still debatable whether which test would be most sensitive and cost-effective for early detection of diabetes.  Real-world evidence (RWE) can inform therapeutic development\, outcome research\, patient care\, research on health care systems\, quality improvement\, safety surveillance\, and well-controlled effectiveness studies.  RWE can also provide information on how factors such as clinical setting and provider and health-system characteristics influence treatment effects and outcomes.  \nThe first part of the lecture will discuss about our real-world data on performance of diagnostic tests (OGTT and A1C) to diagnose dysglycemic status in Thai patients.  The later part will discuss effectiveness of novel anti-diabetic medications (SGLT2i and GLP1 receptor agonist) in Theptarin patients.  There is a scarcity of real-world studies on these novel anti-diabetic medications conducted in Asian patients; however\, these data could be beneficial for day-to-day clinical practice and  for policy makers to plan strategies to reduce burden of diabetes in Southeast Asia.  \n \nYotsapon Thewjitchareon\nEndocrinologist and Head of Research Center\, Theptarin Hospital \nDr. Yotsapon received his medical degree and completed his endocrinology training from Chulalongkorn University\, Thailand in 2004. As a young researcher\, he received the Servier Award for Distinguished Clinical Research in Diabetology from the Endocrine Society of Thailand in 2012.  Internationally\, he was a Japanese Government scholarship grant recipient and spent 2 years in world’s best-known incretin research lab at Department of Diabetes\, Kyoto University\, during 2015-2017. \nDr. Yotsapon joined Theptarin first as a general practitioner in 2006 and later as an endocrinologist in 2013. He is now the head of Theptarin Research Center and had led the team to produce prolific academic works included poster presentations in both local and international meetings\, frequent oral presentations\, and many publications in international medical journals during the past 5 years. \nDr. Yotsapon is not only the key driver in extracting learnings from Theptarin’s 34 year-experience in diabetes and thyroid clinical care through research and bring results to attention of clinicians.  He is also the force that push and support interests in research to paramedical diabetes team members at Theptarin Hospital. \n\nDay 1 - Conference Proper\n\n\n\n\n\n8:00AM\nRegistration\n\n\n8:30AM\nWalk “Diabetes Escape”\n\n\n9:00AM\nOpening Remarks\nIntroduction to Theptarin\n\n\n9:10AM\nLecture 1\nOpen Forum\n\n\n10:30AM\nBreak – Refreshment\n\n\n10:40AM\nLecture 2\nOpen Forum\n\n\n12:00NN\nLunch\n\n\n13:00PM\nHospital Tour \n\nDiabetes Center (Clinic\, Exercise\, Diet)\nCardiology Center (Screening\, Intervention)\n\n\n\n\n14:30PM\nClosing Remarks\nAwarding of Certificates\nGroup Photo\n\n\n15:00PM\nEnd of Session\n\n\n\n\nHospital \n\n\n \nTheptarin Hospital\n3850 Rama 4 Rd.\, Phra Khanong\, Bangkok 10110 Thailand \nFrom Clinic to Center of Excellence \nProf. Thep Himathongkam was ahead of his time when he founded Theptarin in 1985\, initially as a small clinic. As far back as three decades ago\, he had already envisioned a model of holistic therapy for diabetes that aimed to empower patients who suffer from a disease that demands effective treatment and constant monitoring. The Theptarin Diabetes and Thyroid Center was created as a specialist in diabetes and thyroid management. While it opened with all but eight beds for overnight admission\, the clinic was huge in its all-encompassing commitment to excellence in service\, education for both healthcare professionals and patients\, and to research. It was this emphasis on developing a three-pronged expertise that gave life to the first diabetes care team of Thailand which included an endocrinologist\, a nurse to educate patients on diabetes\, and a dietitian to support proper nutrition. \nSeven years later\, it evolved into the Theptarin Hospital\, acquiring new skills\, equipment\, and team specialists in order to meet the ever-changing needs of patients. The Hospital began to offer 24-hour services\, distal bypass surgery\, hyperbaric medicine\, and even launched Thailand’s fi­rst foot clinic specializing in diabetic foot wound care and prevention. \nBecause continuous evolution had always been at the core of its quest for excellence\, when scientific studies revealed in 2005 that diabetes is a preventable condition\, Theptarin Hospital jumped at the opportunity to further enhance its range of therapeutic services. From simply preventing diabetes-related complications\, it set up a “Lifestyle Building” to also promote the prevention of diabetes and associated chronic diseases. Subsequently\, the Hospital introduced its MEDE Health Solution Club and Weight Management Clinic to advocate healthy daily living\, behavior modi­fication\, and optimal quality of life for both diabetes patients and the general public. \nFrom a humble clinic with noble dreams\, Theptarin Hospital has now become a standout amongst private\nhospitals mainly because of its clear focus on developing high quality patient care – from expanded medical teams composed of specialists from diverse branches of healthcare to world-class facilities. Its passion to raise public awareness on diabetes also makes Theptarin Hospital a cut above the rest. The level of excellence achieved by the institution has made it a source of sought-after resource speakers and a training center for students and professionals from local and international healthcare establishments. \nIn addition\, not only was Theptarin Hospital entrusted by the Thai government to train its staff in implementing nationwide behavior modification activities\, it was also appointed in 2011 by the World Diabetes Foundation (Denmark) to serve as a center of excellence for training healthcare personnel throughout Southeast Asia. It continues to pursue increased awareness on the early detection and timely risk reduction of diabetes toward the prevention or prolonged onset of this most prevalent disease. Theptarin Hospital has also earned its stripes as the ­first thyroid center to offer complete diagnosis and treatment\, acting as a transfer center for both domestic and international patients. \nIn 2015\, a team of country’s leading cardiologists co-invested to open one of the most comprehensive\ncardiology with services ranging from screening through interventions including complicated catheterization\, open-heart surgeries\, and 24-hour cardiac services. Cardiology team and diabetes team hold academic and service meetings monthly allowing flow of communication and making the care of the two specialties coherent and optimal. \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.

SUMMARY:DiCE Program 2019 - Thailand
DESCRIPTION:Session Dates:\nFebruary 28 – March 2 \n\nSpeakers & Lecture Synopsis\n\n\nFOOT CARE IN THAILAND:\nA Private Care Model with Public Health Perspective\nProf. Thep Himathongkam\, MD\, FACP\, FACE\nFounder and CEO\, Endocrinologist\, Theptarin Hospital\, Thailand \nChronic foot wounds and foot amputation is a common complication from diabetes that brings serious damage to quality of life and extremely costly. Then why foot care is not a part of routine diabetic care that we commonly found and easily accessible for diabetic patients? \nThe heart to foot care services is multidisciplinary teamwork. In a country where “podiatrist” or foot doctor does not exist\, foot care services must be performed through coordination between medical doctors\, surgeons\, nurses\, physical therapists\, and pedorthists. Working in coordination is a challenge in the medicine world as all professions tend to be trained to work as a soloist. The place where one can expect to host these multidiscipline team members would be medical schools or large governmental hospitals. In reality\, the place where full resources are available often accompany with too segmental management system which\, although individual members may wish to form a team\, system prevents it. \nThe development of foot care in Thailand started 30 years ago at Theptarin Hospital\, a small private clinic founded by an endocrinologist with a dream of building a team care model for diabetes management with focus on patient education. Foot care was naturally a part of the work as more and more patients come present with foot ulcers and seek all ways to avoid amputation. Foot care knowledge and team slowly formed in this private setting. \nDiabetic foot wound consumes gigantic amount of health care resources and thus must be a public health concern. In a country where foot care is still neglected and no foot care is taught in medical school\, government needs to be informed\, educated\, and advised in order to direct the policy towards combating the cause. Theptarin Hospital has transferred itself from a private care setting to a philanthropic-like organization to work hand-in-hand with various governmental organizations to drive for the development of foot care in Thailand. The star-shooting goal was to reduce foot amputation by 40% in 5 years (2013 – 2017)\, but Thailand achieved 80%. \n  \n\nPROF. EMERITUS THEP HIMATHONGKAM\nEndocrinologist\, MD (U. of Wisconsin\, Madison)\, FACP (USA)\, FACE (USA) \nProfessor Thep received his doctoral degree in Medicine from the University of Wisconsin\, Madison in 1969. He completed his training in medicine at New England Deaconess Hospital and his training in endocrinology at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital (now Brigham and Women’s Hospital)\, Harvard University in 1974. \nProfessor Thep is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Theptarin General Hospital in Bangkok\, Thailand\, one of the leading comprehensive diabetes centers in the world working from complications all the way through primary prevention. \nProfessor Thep introduced the teamwork approach in diabetes to Thailand in 1980s. He continuously advocates for the acceptance of diabetes educators\, dietitians\, and foot care specialists among the physician community and the public\, and is the founder of the Thai Society of Diabetes Educators. He works with leaders in diabetes from other Southeast Asian countries in laying out regional standards for  diabetes educators. \nProfessor Thep and his diabetes team deeply engage in the cooperation with Thai universities in the production of dietitians\, foot care specialists\, and exercise physiologists\, to feed the need of health care facilities across Thailand. Moreover\, the team also involve with the National Health Security Office in the implementation plan of chronic disease prevention. \nTHEPTARIN DIABETES STAGING:\nA Systematic Individualized Care Plan for People with Diabetes\nEkgaluck Wanothayaroj\, MD\nEndocrinologist\, Theptarin Hospital\, Thailand \nEach person with diabetes is different. Do we have different standard sets of care for each of them? Diabetes is so complicated; what one measurement can tell how well we do in controlling it? What one tool do we use to communicate the progression of diabetes between healthcare team members as well as person with diabetes and their care takers? Dividing diabetes into different stages has been discussed in the academic world for quite sometimes\, but actual implementation in clinical practice has yet to be documented. \nStarting more than 10 years ago\, diabetes team at Theptarin Hospital has drafted its first “Theptarin Diabetes Staging (TDS)” version. Today\, detail of TDS has been updated several times with additional clinical experiences and advancement in new medical knowledge. Today\, TDS has turned into the backbone for all multidisciplinary care team members to base their care stands on. Today\, quality of diabetes care is measured by monitoring TDS. Maybe\, in the near future TDS could have a role in health care financing as well. \n \nEKGALUCK WANOTHAYAROJ\, MD\nEndocrinologist\, BA Med.

As far back as three decades ago\, he had already envisioned a model of holistic therapy for diabetes that aimed to empower patients who suffer from a disease that demands effective treatment and constant monitoring. The Theptarin Diabetes and Thyroid Center was created as a specialist in diabetes and thyroid management. While it opened with all but eight beds for overnight admission\, the clinic was huge in its all-encompassing commitment to excellence in service\, education for both healthcare professionals and patients\, and to research. It was this emphasis on developing a three-pronged expertise that gave life to the first diabetes care team of Thailand which included an endocrinologist\, a nurse to educate patients on diabetes\, and a dietitian to support proper nutrition. \nSeven years later\, it evolved into the Theptarin Hospital\, acquiring new skills\, equipment\, and team specialists in order to meet the ever-changing needs of patients. The Hospital began to offer 24-hour services\, distal bypass surgery\, hyperbaric medicine\, and even launched Thailand’s fi­rst foot clinic specializing in diabetic foot wound care and prevention. \nBecause continuous evolution had always been at the core of its quest for excellence\, when scientific studies revealed in 2005 that diabetes is a preventable condition\, Theptarin Hospital jumped at the opportunity to further enhance its range of therapeutic services. From simply preventing diabetes-related complications\, it set up a “Lifestyle Building” to also promote the prevention of diabetes and associated chronic diseases. Subsequently\, the Hospital introduced its MEDE Health Solution Club and Weight Management Clinic to advocate healthy daily living\, behavior modi­fication\, and optimal quality of life for both diabetes patients and the general public. \nFrom a humble clinic with noble dreams\, Theptarin Hospital has now become a standout amongst private\nhospitals mainly because of its clear focus on developing high quality patient care – from expanded medical teams composed of specialists from diverse branches of healthcare to world-class facilities. Its passion to raise public awareness on diabetes also makes Theptarin Hospital a cut above the rest. The level of excellence achieved by the institution has made it a source of sought-after resource speakers and a training center for students and professionals from local and international healthcare establishments. \nIn addition\, not only was Theptarin Hospital entrusted by the Thai government to train its staff in implementing nationwide behavior modification activities\, it was also appointed in 2011 by the World Diabetes Foundation (Denmark) to serve as a center of excellence for training healthcare personnel throughout Southeast Asia. It continues to pursue increased awareness on the early detection and timely risk reduction of diabetes toward the prevention or prolonged onset of this most prevalent disease. Theptarin Hospital has also earned its stripes as the ­first thyroid center to offer complete diagnosis and treatment\, acting as a transfer center for both domestic and international patients. \nIn 2015\, a team of country’s leading cardiologists co-invested to open one of the most comprehensive\ncardiology with services ranging from screening through interventions including complicated catheterization\, open-heart surgeries\, and 24-hour cardiac services. Cardiology team and diabetes team hold academic and service meetings monthly allowing flow of communication and making the care of the two specialties coherent and optimal. \n\nRegistration\n\n\n     Content Hidden This content is for logged in users only.
