10 - Diabetes Intro Flashcards
When is a second test required to confirm DM or Pre-DM?
Required UNLESS:
Overtly HYPERglycemic = BG > 200
with Symptoms of DM
Test is RandomPG or 2 HR post 75g OGTT
>200 mg/dl
How often do we test
A1C?
Every 3 MONTHS until goal is achieved
every 6 MONTHS if AT GOAL
Max Fasting Glucose level
140 mg/dl
this is the level where Insulin’s Sensitivity PEAKS
Does not respond to the glucose effectively / efficiently
MicroVascular
Complications of DM
-
EYE
-
High BG / BP -> damages blood vessels
- Retinopathy / Cataracts / Glaucoma
-
High BG / BP -> damages blood vessels
-
KIDNEY
-
Damaged small BV’s / Excess BG
- overworks kidney -> Nephropathy
-
Damaged small BV’s / Excess BG
-
NEROPATHY
- HYPERglycemia -> damages nerves in PNS
-
Pain / Numbness
- Feet wounds -> infection -> Gangrene
-
Pain / Numbness
- HYPERglycemia -> damages nerves in PNS
Second Test for PRE-DM
HgBA1C = 5.7% - 6.4%, THEN,
SECOND TEST NEEDED TO CONFIRM PRE-DIABETES
required if BG is NOT >200 (overtly hyperglycemic) with symptoms
then test 2 Hour PPG (post prandial glucose)
140 - 199 (mg/dl)
IGT (impaired glucose tolerance)
First Line therapy for HYPERTENSION?
ACE INHIBITOR** or **ARB
1st line if proteinuria is present
BP > 140/90
CCB + Thiazide Diuretic
BP > 160/100 use 2 agents
High Risk Ethnicities for DM
Native American
African American
Latino
Asian American = Middle eastern counts
Pacific Islander
ADA 2018 Glycemic Goals
A1C
FBG
2hr PPG
A1C = < 7%
FBG = 80-130 mg/dL
2HR PPG = <180 mg/dL
Major Differences between T1DM
vs T2DM
- T1DM
- <30 y/o
- Abrupt Onset
- Lean Body
- no insulin resistance
- Symptomatic
- Auto AB’s present
- little or no Macro/Microvascular complications at diagnosis
- Ketones at Baseline
S/S of DM
- HYPERglycemia:
- PolyURIA / PolyDIPsia / PolyPHAgia
- Top:
- Headache / blurry VISION / Fatigue
- Body:
- Poor wound healing / dry skin / sexual dysfunction
ADA 2018 Diabetes Screening Guidelines
-
Normal Weight / No Risk factors
- screen at age 45, or if GDM History
- test every 3 years
- screen at age 45, or if GDM History
-
PRE-Diabetes
- Test Annually
-
Overweight or Obese w/ 1> Risk Factors
- Prediabetes / 1st degree relative with DM
- High Risk ethnicity / GDM / PCOS
- h/o CVD / HTN
- Inactive lifestyle
- SCREEN
A1C Correlation with Mean Plasma BG
How much A1C by adding avg BG?
INCREASE A1C by 1%
then add
~30mg/dL to PPG
Ex- 6->7% A1C ——> 150->180mg/dL PPG
Diagnosis for Diabetes
HgbA1C? FPG?
HgbA1c = > 6.5% or
FPG = > 126 (mg/dl) - IFG (impaired fasting glucose)
SECOND TEST NEEDED TO CONFIRM DIABETES
required if BG is NOT >200 (overtly hyperglycemic) with symptoms
then test RPG or 2 Hour post 75mg OGTT (oral glucose tolerance test)
_>_200 (mg/dl) IGT
2013 ACC/AHA Cholesterol Guideline
ASCVD Risk Reduction Trial
-
DM - Aged 40-70
- w/ LDL between 70-189 mg/dl
- 10 year ASCVD risk of 7.5%
- w/ moderate intensity statin
-
10 yr ASCVD risk of > 7.5%
- w/ HIGH intensity statin
- 10 year ASCVD risk of 7.5%
- w/ LDL between 70-189 mg/dl
When to initiate HYPERTENSION medication?
BP > 140 / 90
Ace inhibitor or ARB
1st line if proteinuria is present
CCB / Thiazide Diuretic
Use 2 BP agents if BP >160/100
