"Now I can see it works!" Perspectives on Using a Nutrition-Focused Approach When Initiating Continuous Glucose Monitoring in People with Type 2 Diabetes: Qualitative Interview Study.

Background: Food choices play a significant role in achieving glycemic goals and optimizing overall health for people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can provide a comprehensive look at the impact of foods and other behaviors on glucose in real time and over the course of time. The impact of using a nutrition-focused approach (NFA) when initiating CGM in people with T2D is unknown.

Development of a stakeholder-engaged tool to evaluate community convening and promote community health.

Background: Health systems support community health and well-being, and while many commit resources to convening in support of community-engaged communication interventions, they currently lack tools to evaluate this effort. This report describes one health system's mixed-methods stakeholder-engaged development of robust yet pragmatic convening assessment tools.

Methods: Semi-structured interviews and web surveys with key stakeholders informed a taxonomy of quality convening and accompanying survey tool.

Care Coordination in Primary Care: Views of Clinicians and Clinic Leaders.

Background: Care coordination is an important strategy for addressing patient needs and improving outcomes of care.

Purpose: The Minnesota Care Coordination Effectiveness Study sought to better understand the perspectives and experiences of clinicians/clinic leaders regarding the value, barriers, and facilitators for care coordination in primary care.

Methods: We conducted semi-structured interviews with 18 clinic managers, physicians, and advanced practice clinicians.

Confidence in diagnosing and managing care for cognitive impairment in primary care: a survey comparing barriers by primary care clinician type.

Background: As cognitive impairment (CI) prevalence rises and primary care screening becomes commonplace, it is critical to understand how to support clinicians. We describe clinician-reported barriers to diagnosing and managing care for patients with CI in a health system with standardized screening. We also explore whether barriers differ by clinician type-physician or advanced-practice clinician (APC).

A Nutrition-Focused Approach During Continuous Glucose Monitoring Initiation in People With Type 2 Diabetes: Using a Theoretical Framework to Unite Continuous Glucose Monitoring and Food Choices.

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has transformed diabetes care, yet opportunities for further innovations still exist. Some research suggests CGM could be an ideal tool to guide food choices and other healthy lifestyle behaviors, especially for people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Behavior change theories can be used to understand and describe how CGM users make food-related decisions, which could ultimately lead to the design of more tailored and effective interventions.
