- Description
- The Indian Health Service (IHS) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have entered into an interagency agreement to jointly support and conduct programs to perform health research and improve medical services in the Gila River Indian Community (GRIC). The major research activity carried out under this agreement is an NIH research protocol. Prospective Studies of the Natural History of Diabetes Mellitus and its Complications in the Gila River Indian Community. This proposed project will extend the scope of this protocol by interviewing and examining community residents outside of the clinic and improving health care for residents with diabetes. There are three research and service components of this project as follows: 1. Verify and update the census of districts 1-5 of the GRIC maintained by the NIH. 2. Obtain basic health data that can be ascertained in a community setting, i.e., at the particpant's home or workplace. 3. Implement the goal of ensuring that all community members are tested for diabetes and that diabetic members receive monitoring for diabetes control and complications according to current standards of care. The project involves participants who are Southwestern American Indians, most of whom are Pima Indians, who live in the GRIC. Most either have, or are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The project needs to be carried out by staff with expertise in population and clinical studies among American Indians. Closing date for receipt of offers is May 7, 2002, 4:30pm (local time).
