32
Q

more generally, recommendation for DM pt 40-75

A

-primary prevention: moderate to high intensity statin
-secondary prevention: high intensity statin and goal LDL < 70 (?) (ACC guidelines prob not updated)

33
Q

as needed

A

-25% reduction in microvasc complications
-16% reduction in fatal or nonfatal MI and sudden death
-every 1% drop = 18% reduction in CVD risk

55
Q

ACCORD trial

A

-ended study early

56
Q

VADT trial

A

-

57
Q

bottom line of a1c trials

A

-more aggressive therapy for newly diagnosed, no severe hypoglycemia, no CVD

-caution for severe hypoglycemia, CVD, advanced disease

58
Q

A1c to eAG ratio

A

-1% A1c = 28.7 inc in blood glucose

59
Q

Advantages of A1c monitoring

A

-can measure w/o fasting
-levels not subject to acute changes in insulin dosing, exercise, diet

60
Q

Disadvantages of A1c monitoring

A

-does NOT replace SMBG or CGM
-its an average of all numbers
-conditions that affect RBC turnover will impact results

61
Q

when to check A1c

A

-twice a year if meeting goals
-4 times if not

62
Q

PPG contribution to A1c

A

-when A1c is high, fasting BG is contributing most
-closer to 7%: target postprandial BG

63
Q

Monitoring parameters

A

-urine tests
