AIMS: To survey dietitians involved in diabetes care regarding the provisions for patients with diabetes.
METHODS: A national survey of 512 dietitians known to be engaged in provision of diabetes care was conducted in 1997 and 391 (76%) responded.
RESULTS: Nationally the median provision of dietetic care for diabetes reported was 10.7 h per 100,000 general population per week, but the provision was uneven ranging from 2.0 to 27.6 h per 100,000. Eighty-five per cent of dietitians worked in areas where the provision was less than 22 h per 100,000 general population per week (the current recommended minimum standard). Dietetic provision was greater in secondary care (median 9.1 h per 100,000 general population per week) than in general practice, residential homes and other locations (median 4.4 h per 100,000 general population per week). Provision was greater in those areas in which a designated dietitian had responsibility for co-ordinating the dietetic service for diabetes than in areas where the co-ordinator was not a dietitian or where there was no co-ordinator. Over 90% of dietitians reported following British Diabetic Association (BDA) recommendations regarding advice on carbohydrate, sugar, fat and fibre consumption, but only one-third routinely advised on salt restriction. Of the 17% of dietitians who continue to use carbohydrate exchanges, all combine this method with other approaches. Of the recommendations made by the Clinical Standards Group, only 69% of dietitians reported seeing more than half of newly diagnosed adult patients within four weeks, and less than 50% reported offering half or more of their patients an annual review. Amongst the literature in current use, 98% of dietitians use BDA literature for teaching patients and 90% use BDA publications in their own education. Seventy-six per cent of dietitians believed that there was a role for commercial slimming organizations in weight management of people with diabetes.
CONCLUSIONS: Given the proven value of dietetic input in diabetes management, there would be advantages to correcting the regional inequalities in dietetic provision for diabetes care in the UK.
