Abstract: Study to Help Improve Early evaluation and management of risk factors Leading to Diabetes (SHIELD) is a 5-year population-based survey conducted to better understand the risk for the development of diabetes, as well as diabetes disease burden Based upon a screening questionnaire mailed to 200,000 nationally representative households (TNS NFO Household Panel), responses for 211,097 adults from 127,420 households were obtained (64% response rate) A baseline survey was sent to 22,001 selected individuals derived from the screening respondents. Since 2005, annual SHIELD surveys have captured self-reported information on health status, attitudes and behaviors, quality of life, and anthropometry from this representative sample of the US population The 2008 survey collected information from 14,921 SHIELD respondents (71% response rate) to identify those with the triad conditions (T2DM, HTN, obesity)
