Optimizing the simultaneous management of blood pressure and cholesterol for type 2 diabetes patients
We model the simultaneous control of blood pressure and cholesterol for patients with type 2 diabetes. We present a trade-off analysis between costs and quality-adjusted life years. We compare optimal guidelines to current treatment guidelines. Results indicate that coordination of treatment can reduce costs while improving length and quality of life.
