The National Diabetes Strategy has identified, as a key priority, the development and implementation of national evidence based guidelines for the prevention, detection and management of type 2 diabetes guidelines.
A consortium of Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute (Baker IDI), The George Institute and Adelaide Health Technology Assessment (AHTA), has been contracted by the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing (DOHA) to review and update four type 2 diabetes guidelines for clinicians and other health professionals.
Other NHMRC approved guidelines are availaible at http://www.nhmrc.gov.au/guidelines
