<\/p>\nIt is key to provide efficient translation\u00a0services to patients when being diagnosed. This prevents misdiagnosis and ensures they get the right treatment including insulin or other medication.<\/p>\n
Most importantly, Okomeds can help with translations of medical analysis, medical visits,\u00a0and interpretation in healthcare centres.<\/p>\n
\u00abOur research shows that if a person diagnosed as type 2 diabetes needs insulin treatment within three years of diagnosis, they have a high chance of missed type 1 diabetes,\u00bb says lead researcher Dr Angus Jones.<\/p>\n
\u00abTherefore, they need a blood test to confirm what\u00a0type of diabetes\u00a0they have, to ensure they receive the right monitoring,\u00a0education\u00a0and treatment,\u201d\u00a0 adds\u00a0Jones, from the University of Exeter Medical School.<\/p>\n

Study author Dr Nick Thomas, from the University of Exeter Medical School, said: \u00abWhile people with type 2 diabetes may eventually need insulin, their treatment and education is very different from type 1.\u00bb<\/p>\n
\u00abIf people with type 1 diabetes don’t receive insulin they can develop very high blood glucose, and may develop a life threatening condition,\u00bb says Thomas.<\/p>\n
Thomas added that this means having the right diagnosis is \u00abvitally important even if insulin treatment has already been started.\u00bb<\/p>\n

Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin. It can also happen when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces. Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood sugar.<\/p>\n\r\n Nearly 40 % of adults with type 1 diabetes were misdiagnosed and were initially treated for type 2 diabetes <\/div><\/a>\r\n
