TRANSFORMACION PARA SALUD: EVALUATION OF OUTCOMES (Demonstration Phase)
HbA1c levels obtained upon enrollment into the program were averaged for 99 patients identified with diabetes and who had a pre and post HbA1c reading: from a baseline of 9.3%, a reduction to an average of 8.4% was noted post-navigation (statistically significant).
81 patients were assessed for changes to blood pressure readings prior and post navigation with significant differences noted.
68 patients navigated had BMI readings average of 34 pre and post navigation without changes.
![Page 36: Patient Navigator Program to Improve Chronic Disease Self Management](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061615/56816193550346895dd1318c/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
TRANSFORMACION PARA SALUD: EVALUATION OF OUTCOMES (Demonstration Phase)
Lipid panel of cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and HDL pre and post showed a slight reduction in cholesterol, from 178mg/dl to 172.3mg/dl. These clinical outcomes showed that the project was moderately successful in obtaining improved results on the biomarkers for the chronic diseases targeted.

CLINICAL OUTCOMESSince multiple measurements were collected for clinical markers, growth curve analysis was used to determine the trend of changes during the navigation period. Overall, HgbA1C and blood pressure diastolic were improved significantly during navigation period.
BMI, blood pressure systolic and lipid profiles were not changed significantly during navigation.
