Living with Diabetes (LATAM) 2018 report

Living with Diabetes is a report based on a new study conducted amongst approximately 116 Type 2 (T2D) diabetes patients in Brazil and 105 patients in Mexico. The report consists of 30-minute quantitative online and qualitative telephone interviews with T2D patients. US and EU reports are planned to launch in 2019, for costings and full proposal, please contact Mariel Metcalfe.

The report is intended to help pharmaceutical companies developing products in diabetes to gain a deeper understanding of how patients come to be diagnosed with it and how it impacts their day-to-day lives physically, emotionally and socially. It also explores patient attitudes and perceptions towards treatment, the healthcare professionals managing their condition, as well as identifying the types of support and education patients need at key stages of their journey.

Head of Living With, Mariel Metcalfe commented, “With an increase in prevalence to 14% in Mexico and 9% in Brazil, diabetes is now one of the leading causes of mortality and disability in Latin America. This report provides comprehensive, quantitative insights into patient behaviours, perceptions and needs, as well as their feelings at key stages of their journey living with Type 2 Diabetes.”
