Description: | NOTE: THIS PERFORMANCE INDICATOR HAS BEEN SUPERSEDED BY ITS EQUIVALENT FOR 2013, WITHOUT BEING MADE A STANDARD. Number of regular clients who are Indigenous, have Type II diabetes and whose blood pressure measurement result, recorded within the previous 6 months, was less than or equal to 130/80 mmHg. |
Rationale: | The blood pressure target for people with Type II diabetes is less than or equal to 130/80 mmHg. This level is shown to significantly decrease macrovascular (stroke, heart attack and heart failure) and microvascular (kidney disease, eye disease and peripheral neuropathy) complications. |

Computation description: | Count of regular clients who are Indigenous, have Type II diabetes and whose blood pressure measurement result, recorded within the previous 6 months, was less than or equal to 130/80 mmHg. ‘Regular client’ refers to a client of an OATSIH-funded primary health care service (that is required to report against the Indigenous primary health care key performance indicators) who has an active medical record; that is, a client who has attended the OATSIH-funded primary health care service at least 3 times in 2 years. Exclude Type I diabetes, secondary diabetes, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), previous GDM, impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance. The client does not have a blood pressure measurement of less than or equal to 130/80 mmHg if either the systolic or diastolic reading is above the threshold (130 and 80 respectively). In the general population, blood pressure over 140/90 mmHg is considered high. The blood pressure target for those with Type II diabetes is less than or equal to 130/80 mmHg as it is shown to significantly decrease macrovascular (stroke, heart attack and heart failure) and microvascular (kidney disease, eye disease and peripheral neuropathy) complications. Presented as a number. If the client has had more than one blood pressure measurement in the last 6 months, only the most recently recorded result is included in this calculation. |
