1 TITLE: Diabetic Diets for Frail Elderly Long-Term Care Residents with Type II Diabetes Mellitus: A Review of Guidelines DATE: 15 June 2015 CONTEXT AND POLICY ISSUES People with type 2 diabetes, also known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes or adult onset diabetes, produce less insulin and are often overweight. 1 The prevalence of type 2 diabetes increases with age as more people live longer. 2,3 The prevalence of diabetes among Canadian seniors was 21.3% between 2006 and In the US, one in three residents of long-term care facilities have diabetes, of which 95% are type 2 diabetes. 1 Older people with diabetes are at an increased risk for urinary tract infections, skin infections, foot ulcers, and pneumonia or flu. 1 Treatment goals vary depending on the overall health of the residents. 1 Usual goals for noninstitutionalized adults include HbA1c <7.0%, before meal blood glucose levels mg/dl, after meal (2 hours) blood glucose levels <180 mg/dl, blood pressure < 130/80 mmhg, and LDL cholesterol <100 mg/dl. 1 Oral medications or injectable insulin are used to manage high blood sugar, while other agents may be used to control cardiovascular risk factors such as high blood pressure or cholesterol. 2 However, good nutrition plays an important part of diabetes care, since undernutrition is common in frail older people, who often live in the long term care facilities and are dependent on the help of others to perform daily activities due to decreasing in strength, endurance and physiological function, the level of which can be characterized by using a clinical frailty scale. 3,5 It is therefore important to know whether or not dietary restrictions such as diabetic diets should be used in such population. Diabetic diets are generally healthy diets that are individualized based on preferences, abilities and treatment goals using the advantages and disadvantages of dietary interventions listed in the chapter of Nutrition Therapy 6 of the Canadian Diabetes Association Clinical Practice Guidelines. 7 The aim of this report is to review the guidelines regarding nutritional management for frail elderly residents in long term care. RESEARCH QUESTIONS What are the evidence-based guidelines associated with the provision of diabetic diets for frail elderly long-term care residents with type 2 diabetes mellitus? Disclaimer: The Rapid Response Service is an information service for those involved in planning and providing health care in Canada. Rapid responses are based on a limited literature search and are not comprehensive, systematic reviews. The intent is to provide a list of sources and a summary of the best evidence on the topic that CADTH could identify using all reasonable efforts within the time allowed. Rapid responses should be considered along with other types of information and health care considerations. The information included in this response is not intended to replace professional medical advice, nor should it be construed as a recommendation for or against the use of a particular health technology. Readers are also cautioned that a lack of good quality evidence does not necessarily mean a lack of effectiveness particularly in the case of new and emerging health technologies, for which little information can be found, but which may in future prove to be effective. While CADTH has taken care in the preparation of the report to ensure that its contents are accurate, complete and up to date, CADTH does not make any guarantee to that effect.

2 KEY FINDINGS Recommendations based on low quality evidence suggest that regular diets, instead of diabetic diets, may be used for elderly nursing home residents with type 2 diabetes. For frail diabetic older people, diets rich in protein and energy may be used to prevent malnutrition. METHODS Literature Search Strategy A limited literature search was conducted on key resources including PubMed, The Cochrane Library, University of York Centre for Reviews and Dissemination (CRD) databases, Canadian and major international health technology agencies, as well as a focused Internet search. Methodological filters were applied to limit retrieval to health technology assessments, systematic reviews, meta-analyses and guidelines. Where possible, retrieval was limited to the human population. The search was also limited to English language documents published between January 1, 2010 and May 14, Selection Criteria and Methods One reviewer screened the titles and abstracts of the retrieved publications and evaluated the full-text publications for the final article selection, according to selection criteria presented in Table 1. Population Intervention Comparator Outcomes Study Designs Table 1: Selection Criteria Frail elderly residents with type II diabetes mellitus in long-term care Provision of diabetic diets (nutritional guidelines) for type II diabetes mellitus Diabetic diets No comparator Guidelines (e.g., quality of life outcomes, patient benefits and harms) Health technology assessments, systematic reviews, and guidelines Exclusion Criteria Studies were excluded if they did not satisfy the selection criteria in Table 1, if they were published prior to 2010, duplicate publications of the same guidelines, non-evidence-based guidelines, or older guidelines from the same guideline society or institute. Critical Appraisal of Individual Studies For the critical appraisal of studies, a numeric score was not calculated. Instead, the strengths and limitations of the studies were described narratively. The Appraisal of Guidelines Research & Evaluation (AGREE II) instrument was used to evaluate the quality of the included guidelines. 8 Diabetic Diets for Frail Elderly LTC Residents with T2DM 2
3 SUMMARY OF EVIDENCE Quantity of Research Available The literature search yielded 264 citations. Upon screening titles and abstracts, 12 potential relevant articles were retrieved for full-text review. Three additional relevant reports were retrieved from other sources. Of the 15 potentially relevant articles, three reports 9-11 were included in this review presenting guidelines and recommendations for nutrition management for elderly residents with type 2 diabetes. The study selection process is outlined in a PRISMA flowchart (Appendix 1). Summary of Study Characteristics Of the three evidence-based guidelines, two were from Canada (the Canadian Diabetes Association [CDA], 9 the Diabetes Care Program of Nova Scotia and the Palliative and Therapeutic Harmonization [DCPNS/PATH] 10 ), and one from Belgium (International Diabetes Federation [IDF] 11 ). The CDA guidelines provide recommendations regarding the prevention and management of diabetes, both type 1 and type 2, in all Canadian populations including pregnant women, Aboriginal peoples, children, and the elderly. The guidelines have specific sections entitled Diabetes in Elderly and Nutrition Therapy. The DCPNS/PATH and IDF guidelines had a narrower scope that specifically focussed on the management of type 2 diabetes in frail older adults. All guidelines are evidence based and were published in. The methodology of guideline development and evaluation of the science were clearly described in the CDA, 9 but not in the DCPNS/PATH 10 and the IDF 11 guidelines. The strength of the recommendations in the CDA guideline was graded according to the level of evidence in a hierarchical manner where systematic review or meta-analysis of high quality RCTs or appropriate designed RCT with adequate power were ranked highest and expert opinions were ranked lowest. The DCPNS/PATH and the IDF guidelines did not apply the level of evidence to grade the recommendations. Appendix 2 presents the grading of recommendations and levels of evidence of the CDA guideline. Summary of Critical Appraisal Strengths and limitations of the included guidelines were assessed using the AGREE II instrument and are presented in Appendix 3. The CDA guideline 9 met all the items of the six main components of the AGREE II instrument. These include scope and purpose, stakeholder involvement, rigour of development, applicability, clarity of recommendations, and editorial independence. The DCPNS/PATH 10 and the IDF 11 guidelines did not describe systematic methods to search for evidence, the criteria for selecting the evidence, the strengths and limitations of the body of evidence and the methods of formulating the recommendations. They also had limitations in applicability in terms of facilitators and barriers to their application and potential resource implications. Editorial independence was also not clearly stated in these guidelines. On the other hand, they clearly stated the scope and purpose, stakeholder involvement, and clarity of recommendation.

4 Summary of Findings Recommendations on nutrition for frail older adults with type 2 diabetes are presented in Table 2. The two Canadian guidelines (CDA, 9 and DCPNS/PATH 10 ) did not recommend diabetic diets for elderly residents with type 2 diabetes. Regular diets were recommended be used instead. The IDF guideline 11 recommended nutrition with higher protein and energy intake for frail older people with diabetes the prevent malnutrition and weigh loss. Guideline Society, Country, Author, Year CDA 9 Canada DCPNS/PATH 10 Canada IDF 11 Belgium Table 2: Summary of Recommendations Recommendations [recommendation grade, and/or level of evidence] In elderly nursing home residents, regular diets may be used instead of diabetic diets or nutritional formulas 9 p.s187 [Grade D, Level 4] Dietary management of diabetes in nursing home settings does not appear to meaningfully improve glycemic control and is therefore not needed 10 p.805 The nutritional assessment should be used to identify the presence of malnutrition and/or weight loss and the appropriate nutritional plan to be adopted. Higher protein and higher energy intake foods may be needed to improve nutritional and functional status in frail older people with diabetes. 11 p.19 CDA = Canadian Diabetes Association; DCPNS = Diabetes Care Program of Nova Scotia; IDF = International Diabetes Federation; PATH = Palliative and Therapeutic Harmonization Limitations Few guidelines have recommendations for diets in frail elderly long-term care residents with type 2 diabetes. Of the 13 diabetes guidelines identified, two had recommendations on diets for diabetic elderly living in nursing homes, and one had recommendations for nutritional management of frail older people with diabetes. The recommendation from CDA guideline was of Grade D and based on Level 4 evidence, while those in the other two guidelines were not graded. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR DECISION OR POLICY MAKING Evidence-based guidelines for older people with diabetes, especially with nutritional management, are limited. Of the three identified evidence-based guidelines, two were from Canada. Specific diabetic diets or dietary management of diabetes were not recommended for older people with type 2 diabetes. Regular diets appear to be sufficient for diabetic elderly nursing home residents. For frail elderly with diabetes, diets rich in protein and energy may be used to prevent malnutrition and weight loss. The recommendations were based on low level evidence that short-term substitution of regular diets for diabetic diets did not modify the level of glycemic control. Higher quality evidence from well-designed trials is needed. Diabetic Diets for Frail Elderly LTC Residents with T2DM 4
