Diabetes Flashcards
Diabetes Diganosis
Random Plasma Glucose (RPG)=>=200
Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) >=126
Tolerance (OGTT) >=200
HbA1C >=6.5%
HbA1C Postprandial Glucose
Major contributor to hyperglycemia at HbA1c <7.3 contributes 69.7%
HbA1C Fasting Plasma Glucose
Major contributor to hyperglycemia at HbA1c >10.2
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Insulin is the preferred medication; Requires frequent titration
Most Pregnancy B; Noninsulin Rxs cross placenta (Glyburide and Metformin)
Types of Insulin
Regular, Rapid-acting and NPH insulin
Insulin category C
Glragine and Glulisine
Mild Hypoglycemic Stage Treatment
Glucose = 60-70mg/dL
TX ; 15-15-15
15 G of CHO Glucose— Wait 15min. —– 15 G again
Moderate Hypoglycemic Stage Treatment
Glucose= 41-59 mg/dL S/S; Adre/neuro
Tx; 30-15-30
30 G of CHO —– wait 15min. —- 30G again
Severe Hypoglycemic Stage Treatment
Glucose= <40 mg/dL S/S; Adre/neuro (Req. Assist.)
Tx; Glucagon 1mg Subq/IM or 50mls D50W IV
6.5 min and 4 min.
Hyperglycemic Complications
Acidosis; Large Ketonemia or ketonuria ; Glucose >600mg/dL ; Ph>7.30; Onset over days to wks
Hyperglycemic Complication Treatment
Insulin: Regular
.1 U/Kg/ as I.V Bolus then .1 U/kg/hr infusion
.14 U/Kg Bwt/hr IV infusion
Serum Glucose Not <10% in 1st Hr .14 U/Kg IV bolus then continue previous infusion
Post Hyperglycemic treatment DKA Tx
Serum Glucose reduced 200mg/dL then .02-.05 U/kg/hr IV Add 20-30 mEq/L on fluid if K+ < 3.3
Rapid Acting Insulin at 0.1 U/kg SC every 2 hrs (Keep 150-200) until resolution
Post Hyperglycemic treatment HHS Tx
Serum Glucose reduced 300mg/dL then .02-.05 U/kg/hr IV keep glucose between 200-300 for 2 hrs then SC
Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State (HHS)
Significantly higher plasma glucose (600mg/dL)
Serum pH> 7.30
Onset occurs several days to wks
Metabolic Syndrome
Pts have a 5 fold increased risk fro T2DM
Has 3-5 components
- Abd. Obesity - HDL Low -Triglycerides 150
- BP SBP>130 DBP >85 -Fasting Glucose >100mg
DOC for Diabetics for Dyslipidemia
Statin Moderate to High intensity
Insulin
Replaces hormone in T1DM and supplements in T2DM
Facilitates Glucose uptake; reduces glucose in plasma
AE; Hypoglycemia, Weight Gain, lipodystrophies
Basal V.S Bolus
Rapid Acting Insulin
Lispro- Before or immediately after meals (CS II w/ NPH)
Aspart- Before meals (IV and CSII w NPH)
Glulisine- Before or w/in 20min after meals (IV and CSII w/NPH)
Short Acting Insulin
Regular (Humulin/Novolin)
Intermediate Acting Insulin
NPH intermediate-acting insulin with onset of action in 1 to 3 hours, duration of action up to 24 hours, and peak action from 6 to 8 hours
Long Acting Insulin
Glargine and Detemir
Afrezza
Inhaled
Afrezza
Tx; T2DM Hypergl Oral Inhaled insulin; At beginning of a meal.
CI; COPD, Asthma, smoke, lung cancer; T1DM needs a long acting insulin; Not for Ketoacidosis DKA
