Diabetes und Migration – Praxisempfehlungen (Update 2026)
摘要
The practice recommendation of the Working Group Migration and Diabetes of the Austrian Diabetes Association (ÖDG) was prepared in cooperation with the Working Group Diabetes and Migration of the German Diabetes Association (DDG). The practice recommendation is intended to supplement the existing guidelines on diabetes mellitus and provides practical recommendations for action for the diagnosis, treatment and care of people with diabetes mellitus who come from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds. The article deals with the demographic data of migration in Austria and Germany, with treatment advice concerning drug therapy and diabetes education for patients with migration background. In this context sociocultural specifics are discussed. These suggestions are complementary to the general treatment guidelines of the ÖDG and the DDG. Especially for the fasting months of Ramadan there is a lot of information. The most important point is that the patient care must be highly individualized and the management plan can differ for each patient.
