DM treatment Flashcards
fasting plasma glucose OR
after 8hours of fasting
> or equal to 7.0 mmol/l 126 mg/dL
Diabetes mellitus is defined as
elevated blood glucose
absent or inadequate pancreatic insulin secretion
without concurrent impairment of insulin action
2 hour plasma glucose
75 g oral glucose load
> or equal to 11.1 mmol/l (200 mg/dl)
uncommon criteria in WHO DM
elevated RBS
glycosylated hemoglobin
signs and symptoms of DM
polyphagia polyuria polydipsia blurred vision fatigue nausea dry skin
type 1 insulin dependent diabetes hallmark
selective Beta cell destruction
absolute insulin deficiency
type 2 noninsulin dependent diabetes hallmark
insulin resistance
relative insulin deficiency
fist diagnosis of gestational DM
during pregnancy
progresses to frank diabetes
interruption of insulin replacement therapy in type 1 DM can result to
diabetic ketoacidosis
type 2 DM dehydration can lead to
hyperketotic hyperosmolar coma
increases in response to different stimuli especially glucose
INSULIN
variability of insulin absorption is more prominent with
regular human insulin and NPH insulin
half life of insulin
3-5 minutes
endogenous insulin is secreted more by
liver 60%
exogenous insulin is excreted more by the
kidney. 60%
insulin binds with
alpha sub TKR
basal insulin value
5-15 uu/mL (30-90 pmol/l)
peak insulin value
60-90 uu/ml (369-540 pmol/l)
human sources of insulin made from
recombinant DNA
pork or beef insulin can cause
hyoersensitivity
not produced anymore
different concentrations of insulin prep
u-100
u-500
u-40
only concentration of insulin available in the Philippines
u-100
concentration used in other countries for insulin resistance
u-500
used in other countries for pedia DM
u-49
basis of classification of insulin preparations
time of onset
duration of action
for basal requirements use
intermediate or long acting insulin
postprandial hyperglycemia use
short acting or rapid acting insulin before meals
only cloudy suspension among preparations
NPH
only insulin preparation that can be mixed with other preparations
NPH
mixing how to
clear soln must be injected to the cloudy suspension
route of general prep
SC
preferable regular insulin route
IV
pH of almost all insulin prep
neutral
only prep that is acidic of pH. 4 and cant be mixed with other insulin
GLARGINE
types used in continuous SC insulin infusion
rapid acting- LISPRO, ASPART, GLULISINE
short acting- regular INSULIN
cant be mixed with other solutions
GLARGINE (Lantus)
DETEMIR (Levemir)
traditional and chepest way to administer INSULIN
vial
tuberculin syringe injection
mode of delivery for whose blood glucose fluctuate and is difficult to monitor and control
INSULIN pump
good range of blood glucose reading
80-120 fasting blood glucose early in the morning
140-180 after a meal
proline is moved from b28 to b29
lysine is moved from b29 to b28 making it faster acting
LISPRO (humalog)
b28 prolone substituted with a negatively charged aspartic acid
ASPART (novolog)
glycine substitutes aspargine at the end of alpha chain
2 arginines are added to the end of the b chain
GLARGINE (lantus)
myristic acid is added to the alpha chain
threonin is removed from the end of beta chain
DETERMIR (levemir)
lysine at b3 instead of aspargine
glutamic acid at b29 instead of lysine
GLULISINE (apidra)
rapid acting insulin
LISPRO (humalog)
ASPART (novolog)
GLULISINE (apidra)
used for postprandial hyperglycemia
rapid acting
- LISPRO
- ASPART
- GLULISINE
most physiologic insulin prep
rapid acting
- LISPRO
- ASPART
- GLULISINE
onset of action of rapid acting -LISPRO -ASPART -GLULISINE
15 mins, not dose related
duration of action of rapid acting -LISPRO -ASPART -GLULISINE
3-5 hours
1st monomeric insulin analog to be marketed
produced by recombinant technology
LISPRO (humalog)
short acting insulin
HUMULIN R
ACTRAPID HM
onset of action of short acting
HUMULIN R
ACTRAPID HM
30min- 1hr
so give 30-45 min ac
peak of action of short acting
HUMULIN R
ACTRAPID HM
2-3 hours
duration of action of short acting
HUMULIN R
ACTRAPID HM
5-8 hours
delayed onset of action and peak action is caused by
short acting
HUMULIN R
ACTRAPID HM
hexameric structure
NPH neutral protamine hagedorn isophane insulin(HUMULIN N)
intermediate acting
use of protamine
added to prolong the action of insulin
onset of action of NPH neutral protamine hagedorn isophane insulin(HUMULIN N)
2-5 hours
NPH neutral protamine hagedorn isophane insulin(HUMULIN N) duration of action
10-20h bid-qid
onset of action and duration of action of NPH are affected by the
dose
the only insulin used to provide for basal insulin requirements
NPH neutral protamine hagedorn isophane insulin(HUMULIN N)
long acting insulin analogs
GLARGINE (lantus)
DETEMIR
DETEMIR is given
2x a day
GLARGINE is peakless and is given
once a day
insulin combination’s onset will depend on
short acting insulin LISPRO ASPART GLULIGINE regular
insulin combination duration will depend on
long acting -NPH
