Brief Summary

Despite several clinical trials have clearly demonstrated that the correction of a single cardiovascular risk factor in patients with type 2 diabetes decreases the incidence of myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular disease (CVD) events, only the Steno study has been evaluating the effect of a multifactorial intervention strategy on macrovascular complications of diabetes. For this reason, the disease management approach currently endorsed by international guidelines (i.e correction of all major CVD risk factors to target levels usually lower than lower risk populations) has not been extensively investigated in terms of prevalence of application in current clinical practice and in terms of real efficacy. The Multifactorial INtervention in type 2 Diabetes - ITaly (MIND.IT) is a multicentric two-phase study involving 9 Diabetes Care Units throughout Italy with the overall aims of: (1) investigating the degree of application of the international guidelines for CVD prevention in type 2 diabetic patients and (2) verifying whether the application of an intensive multi-factorial intervention inspired by these guidelines is feasible and effective in decreasing the incidence of new CVD events.

    To verify if an intensive care intervention compared to usual care is able to significantly decrease the incidence of first cardiovascular event. Composite primary end-point = mortality for cardiovascular causes, proven acute myocardial infarction (STEMI or NSTEMI), acute coronary syndrome requiring hospitalization, proven ischemic stroke, coronary or carotid revascularization procedure

    5 years of follow up

Secondary Outcomes (1)
