The Diabetes Inpatient National Network (DINN) has been established to rectify the neglect associated with the Cinderella area of acute diabetes care. The diabetes epidemic is not sparing hospital practice – all wards are brimming with people with known and unknown diabetes, as well as stress hyperglycaemia. In-hospital hyperglycaemia has very poor outcomes and current management is frequently sub-optimal in all clinical arenas.
This unique and exciting conference will highlight the crisis, review the evidence, debate current perceived wisdom and plan for the future. The view of DINN is that the in-hospital care of people with diabetes and hyperglycaemia must be the thrust of specialist diabetes services from this moment onwards. We hope you will join us to add your views to this vital and often neglected area of diabetes care.
