Joslin Clinical Guidelines
Clinical Guidelines
In order to assure that the high clinical practice standards endorsed and adhered to by Joslin Diabetes Center and its Joslin Clinic are easily accessible to practitioners worldwide who rely on Joslin to set the benchmark for diabetes care and treatment, Joslin Diabetes Center has developed and published a series of clinical care Guidelines. The primary objective of each Guideline is to support clinical practice and influence clinical behavior so that outcomes are improved and patient expectations are informed and reasonable.
- Clinical Guidelines for Adults (Rev.2/2013)
- Pharmacological Guidelines (Rev. 10/2011)
- Inpatient Management of Surgical Patients with Diabetes (Rev. 10/2/09)
- Guideline for Specialty Consultation/Referral
- Guidelines for Diabetes in Pregnancy (Rev. 6/15/11)
- Guideline for Management of Uncontrolled Glucose in the Hospitalized Patient
- Clinical Nutrition Guideline for Overweight/Obese Adults with Type 2 Diabetes (Rev. 8/2011)
- Guideline for Care of Older Adults with Diabetes
NOTICE: Joslin's Clinical Guidelines are reviewed at least annually but are revised as current evidence and clinical practice require. Please check back frequently to ensure that you have the most recent version of each Guideline.
