Early identification of Type 2 Diabetes Risk

Insulin resistance can be a first step in the progression to cardiometabolic disease. If diagnosis is delayed until the patient exhibits hyperglycemia or other symptoms, progression to prediabetes or type 2 diabetes (T2D) may have already occurred.1,2

40% of young American
adults have insulin resistance3
8.7% of the US population has been diagnosed with diabetes5
96 million US adults —over a third—have prediabetes4 More than 8 in 10 of them don't know it4

Cardiometabolic diseases are conditions of associated risk

  • Patients with T2D have a 2-3x higher risk of fatal coronary heart disease6
  • Nearly 40% of people who have diabetes also have chronic kidney disease (CKD)7
  • More than 70% of those who have T2D have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)8

Insulin Resistance (IR) Panel with Score

Patients can have normal glucose and HbA1c, but may have IR that puts them at risk of developing prediabetes and diabetes.3 Fasting insulin and C-peptide measurements detect IR and possible risk of prediabetes or diabetes 10 years or more before T2D is diagnosed. For your patients with risk factors for diabetes, detecting IR now can help you work together to achieve better outcomes.

Identify IR 10 years or more before T2D is diagnosed1

Structured lifestyle changes can decrease risk by 58%9

Utilize enhanced reporting for effective patient counseling
