Summary

People with severe mental illness (SMI), defined as psychotic and bipolar disorders, die 17-20 years earlier than the general population, the most common cause of death being cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The major contributor to CVD mortality in SMI is the increased prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to the general population. T2D is a paradigm of a single condition that progresses to multiple conditions. T2D requires annual reviews of 9 diabetes care processes and for patients to adopt multiple self-care tasks to prevent diabetes complications. The 9 diabetes care processes outlined by the NICE guidelines include: 3-6 monthly blood glucose measurement (HbA1c) with targets; blood pressure measurements and targets; annual blood cholesterol measurement; kidney function testing with urinary albumin; kidney function testing with serum creatinine; weight check; smoking status; diabetes annual eye screening; and annual foot examination.

Previous research has focused on upskilling mental health professionals or link workers in diabetes care, however, a primary care led focus to support individuals with T2D and SMI has not been investigated. This is an interventional study in Lambeth south London testing a new model of care for people with SMI and T2D that is led by the community DSN in collaboration with the PN and mental health team within the Hills Brook and Dales Primary Care Network (PCN). StockWELL PCN participants will act as controls. Participants will complete 7 validated questionnaires, a physical examination including a blood test and urine sample and a brief interview either face to face in their GP surgery. The intervention group will be invited to a clinic run by a DSN. Baseline measures will be repeated after 6 months in both groups. An exit interview will be conducted to determine participants thoughts on the intervention. This project has been funded by the Burdett Trust for Nursing.
