Ambulatory care sensitive conditions
Diabetes complications in Victoria 2001/02

Introduction

The Victorian Ambulatory Care Sensitive Conditions (ACSCs) Study has identified diabetes complications as the leading cause of admissions for ACSCs in Victoria. Diabetes complications, along with asthma, vaccine-preventable influenza and pneumococcal pneumonias, have previously been identified as key conditions where interventions could be realistically set up with a demonstrable and significant short-term impact on demand for emergency hospital admission.
