      BAGSVÆRD, Danmark, November 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

      Novo Nordisk har besluttet at forlænge sit Changing Diabetes® in Children-program med fire år - et program, som giver børn med type 1-diabetes i udviklingslande adgang til behandling og gratis insulin. Samtidig kommer fem nye lande med i programmet: Cambodia, Elfenbenskysten, Myanmar, Senegal og Sudan. Ambitionen er, at programmet i 2020 over en 11-årig periode har hjulpet flere end 20.000 børn.

      For 10 år siden var den forventede levetid for et barn med type 1-diabetes i afrikanske lande syd for Sahara ofte mindre end et år[1]. Det fik Novo Nordisk til at etablere Changing Diabetes® in Children-programmet, som skal bidrage til at forbedre kvaliteten af behandlingen og mulighederne for at diagnosticere sygdommen. Siden programmet blev etableret i 2009, har 13.700 børn i ni lande i Afrika og Sydøstasien haft adgang til diabetesbehandling og gratis human insulin.

      "Changing Diabetes® in Children-programmet har været ikonisk," siger professor Azad Khan, formand for Diabetic Association of Bangladesh. "Det har ændret tilværelsen for børn med type 1-diabetes i Bangladesh. Deres overlevelse er afhængig af, at de får insulin og bliver undervist i, hvordan de skal håndtere sygdommen. Alt dette sørger programmet for."

      Et stort antal børn i programmet har nu fået deres diabetes under kontrol, så de kan leve et godt og sundt liv. Indtil nu er der etableret 108 klinikker, og flere end 7.000 læger og andet sundhedspersonale er blevet undervist i diabetesbehandling.

      Udover at donere gratis insulin har Changing Diabetes® in Children-programmet til formål at støtte udviklingen af de lokale sundhedssystemer. Lars Rebien Sørensen, administrerende direktør for Novo Nordisk, siger: "Udlevering af gratis medicin kan ikke i sig selv løse komplekse sundhedsmæssige udfordringer. Lige fra vi lancerede programmet, har vi derfor arbejdet tæt sammen med lokale partnere om at levere bæredygtige behandlingsløsninger sammen med insulinen for at forbedre tilværelsen for børn med type 1-diabetes både nu og i fremtiden."

      Om Changing Diabetes® in Children 

      De globale partnere i programmet er Novo Nordisk, Roche, International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) og Verdensdiabetesfonden (WDF). I hvert af de ni lande, der allerede deltager (Cameroun, Den Demokratiske Republik Congo, Etiopien, Guinea, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Bangladesh og Indien), drives programmet som et privat-offentligt partnerskab med en gruppe lokale samarbejdspartnere. Landenes sundhedsministerier spiller en afgørende rolle i at sikre, at Changing Diabetes® forankres i det eksisterende sundhedssystem.
