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?

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.

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. (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. \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.
