dc.description.abstractThis study developed a preliminary essential dataset that could be used in an electronic patient record for the care and management of diabetes by family physicians. Family and specialist physicians, nurse educators, and others (n=29) were interviewed in Victoria, British Columbia. The study focused on the care family physicians provided in the community rather than care provided in institutions. The dataset was defined using the Essential Data Set Approach of Moidu et al. Systems analysis techniques were used to construct data and a conceptual models to show how this dataset could be stored in an electronic database. Rather than being tested this preliminary essential dataset was compared to existing diabetes datasets to see if the data elements described in this study are collected by those datasets. The study dataset and data structure could support provision of diabetic care according to the Canadian guidelines, if the necessary supportive data is collected.
