Objectives: This retrospective cohort analysis study examined the current trend of hospital admission for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in Wales.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) management can require high cognitive input. and whilst digital diabetes technologies, such as Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), have emerged over the last decade, it’s only valuable if you have access and are empowered to make use of the data produced.
Background: Completion of diabetes structured education (DSE) has historically been low, with only 5.6% of participants attending within 12 months of diagnosis in 2020 . Digital DSE has the potential to increase uptake. Here we present outcomes of a remote DSE service.

Background:
Cutaneous diphtheria is rare in England due to the success of the routine immunisation programme. Here we describe a unusual case of diabetic wound infection with toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans.
The Joint British Diabetes Societies (JBDS) for Inpatient Care group was created in 2008 to ‘deliver a set of diabetes inpatient guidelines and proposed standards of care within secondary care organisations’, with the overall aim of improving inpatient diabetes care through the development and use of high quality evidence based guidelines, and through better inpatient care pathways.
We are pleased to share our proposed new aims and objectives for ABCD.
