With the intention of integrating the patient with diabetes, the endocrine Teresa Martínez Ramonde will launch a private center at the Manuel Murguía Quiron clinic.There, he will work independently so that those affected by evil do not have to go from one place to another and receive all the attention in one place.
The specialist presented yesterday the project in refund as the logical evolution of health, above all, now that life expectancy is greater and there are more chronic patients, who "in turn have more ramifications of their pathologies."In this way, your consultation will integrate all the organic implications that derives diabetes, psychological, family and social to be in permanent connection with the medical personnel from other areas with which it is related.
In the same bag, experts in vascular surgery, ophthalmology, neurology and gynecology will be involved because it is about putting the easiest things that make up 10% of the current population.Teresa Martínez explains that there are more and more cases and also more informed sick who spend time jumping from primary care to the specialist, in what qualifies as "a large disorganization."
Although public health already walks towards the integration of assistance, in the private it is still worse, he says.Hence the idea of setting up a space that avoids displacements.In it, explorations of the eyes, neurological and blood pressure will be performed, providing the necessary diabetological information through tip technology.
The endocrine comments that the last are insulin pumps with sensors, but that although medicine has taken giant steps, the patient continues to see that with evil behind his back, his life is limited.Therefore, the presence of psychologists is so important: “When you diagnose the disease, they condition you on all sides.It is easier to put the insulin and get controls, but it forces you to change your diet and you cannot do whatever you want. ”
At the moment, the Integral Center for Diabetes will enter Sanitas's private insurance.The idea is to expand it to others in the coming months, even create a small insurance, where associates receive attention in exchange for a bit per month.
In principle, Teresa will put themselves at the head of the service with three other colleagues to expand the workforce in the future with young specialists.At this point, the clinic will hold arms with the other medical departments that are activated at the time a patient has high blood sugar indices.
In the same center will also be podiatrists and experts in sports medicine.So that the care is complete and the sick do not have to pilgrimage in search of an improvement of their quality of life.
In this sense, longevity is the reason that this type of assistance is correct, according to the specialist, who believes that par excellence, diabetes is one of the pathologies that most demand change for all those ramifications that occur in eachConfirmed case.
