If they are older than 40 and if they had a stroke or heart attack they need a statin.(high dose).

Treat if 10 year ASCVD is greater than 10%. Do NOT treat if less than 5%. Including men and women >50 with one additional risk factor.

ACEi or ARB. If they are spilling protein and don’t have high blood pressure it’s debatable but still do it.

Q

What is your long acting insulin?

How do you calculate insulin need?

How do you adjust basal insulin?

A

Detemir,Glargine u-100 and u-300, degludec.

TDD= 0.5 unit/kg. 1/2 dose as basal and 1/2 dose split over 3 meals bolus.

adjustments are made in 1-5 unit changes. Look at night-morning blood sugars, Change <20-40 mg/dL no dose change. Drops by >20-40 mg/dL, decrease long acting. If increases by 20-40 mg/dL, increase long acting maybe!

What is a somogyi effect in insulin?

What is the dawn effect?

A

hypoglycemia with rebounds in the AM.

stay level between falling asleep in the middle of the night and then start to rise several hours before waking

look at following meal pre prandial and look at 2 hour post prandial, if not at goal adjust. One mealtime bolus is adequate than review, if next blood glucose around 4 hours after a correction is not at goal, change correction.

Q

How do you dose NPH?

How do you dose insulin to carb ratio?

How do you dose correction factor?

A

.5 unit/kg. Give 2/3 of TDD in am(2/3 NPH and 1/3 bolus), Give 1/3 of TDD in pm(1/2 NPH and 1/2 bolus).

500 divided by TDD or 5.7 x kg / TDD

1700/TDD for rapid acting and 1 unit for every x you get. 1500/TDD 1 unit for every x you get.
