11
Q

morning hyperglycemia

A

either dawn phenomenon or samojyi effect

dawn - anti-insulin hormone in AM - tx increase meds

samojyi - night time low glucose - body tries to increase - tx decrease meds

16
Q

ACE inhibitor

A

dilates efferent arterioles

drops pressure in glomeruli - decreases filtration

17
Q

12yo M to ER with SOB and mental status change

increasing fatigue
weight loss
thirsty a lot
urinates at night
breathing deep and fast
thrush in mouth

glucose high
pH 7.05
high anion gap
BUN/Cr elevated

A

diabetic ketoacidosis

18
Q

path of DKA

A
insulin deficienct
more lipolysis
more fatty acid to liver
increased ketogenesis
acidosis
19
Q

potassium elevated in DKA**

A

acidosis - shifts K out of cell

peeing out lots of K
body K low
serum K high

20
Q

tx of DKA

A

IV insulin

look at the anion gap
-this tells when you can switch to subQ insulin

21
Q

DKA age

A

younger

22
Q

NKHO age

A

older

23
Q

DKA mental status

A

alert

24
Q

NKHO coma

A

comatose confused

25
Q

renal failure

A

more common in NKHO

26
Q

metabolic problem

A

DKA acidosis

NKHO dehydration

27
Q

59yo M diabetic
mild burning of feet at times
has not taken glipizide
smokes 1/2ppd

glucose 185
LDL high
left vent hypertrophy
HbA1c 8.3%

done wrong by previous physician?

A

no metformin (does not cause hypoglycemia)

no follow up

28
Q

first thing to do with new diabetic patient

A
HbA1c
physical exam
get PMH
lipid panel
assess knowledge of disease
give glucometer
ask to check blood sugar 4x/daily
29
Q

HbA1c

A

marker for control of diabetes

30
Q

test for peripheral neuropathy

A

monofilament test

31
Q

diabetes and HTN

A

atherosclerosis and renal failure

secondary HTN

32
Q

initial diabetes tx

A

metformin and diet/exercise mod

also statin if high lipids

also ACE inhibitor - DOC for diabetes and HTN

33
Q

ACE inhibitor side effect

A

cough

34
Q

when to check HbA1c

A

3 month later

35
Q

52yo F with DM II

worried about sugar too low - school bus driver

loses insurance - doesn’t come back for few years

very high glucose - 510

blurry vision, calf pain, urinary frequency, dizzy when stand up

A

blurry vision - reversible lens swelling

meds to start - insulin** bc very high glucose

36
Q

meds to avoid hypoglycemia

A
metformin
TZD
DDP-IV
DLP-1 analog
alpha-1 glycosidase
37
Q

LDL goal for diabetic

A

70

if not - give statin

38
Q

what to check with peripheral vascular disease

A

look for atherosclerosis

do stress test

39
Q

complications improve with glycemic control

A

microvascular problems
