This guideline covers care and management for adults (aged 18 and over) with type 2 diabetes. It focuses on patient education, dietary advice, managing cardiovascular risk, managing blood glucose levels, and identifying and managing long-term complications.
This indicator covers the proportion of adults with a diagnosis of diabetes who have a recording of myocardial infarction (MI), stroke and/or end stage kidney disease. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as CCG12
Drug-eluting stents for the treatment of coronary artery disease (TA152)
Evidence-based recommendations on using drug-eluting stents in adults.
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with type 1 diabetes aged over 40 years (excluding people with a history of haemorrhagic stroke) who are currently treated with a lipid-lowering therapy. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes
Optical coherence tomography to guide percutaneous coronary intervention (HTG332)
Evidence-based recommendations on optical coherence tomography to guide percutaneous coronary intervention. This involves using near-infrared light to produce high-resolution images of blood vessel walls.

LATITUDE NXT Patient Management System for monitoring cardiac devices at home (MIB67)
NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on the LATITUDE NXT Patient Management System for monitoring cardiac devices at home
Evidence-based recommendations on off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. This involves attaching a healthy blood vessel to the heart muscle so that blood can get round (‘bypass’) the affected part of the coronary artery.
