Endo Flashcards
initial fluid bolus in shock DKA
normal saline at 10ml/kg
more specific DKA fluid restoration
fluid should be replaced slowly over 36- 48 h
100ml/kg for weight <10kg
1050 for above 10kg
1520 for above 20 kg
first line of action in DKA
REHDRATE THEN SORT OUT INSULIN
why don’t we want to bring down the glucose too fast
brain edema
when should u give glucose in Dka
if glucose falls to less than 11 or 14
when is bicarbonate therapy indicated in ska
unless ph is very low <6.9 or is hyperkalemia is present
side effects of bicarbonate
brain edema
tissue hypoxia
paradoxical increase in CNS acidosis
osmotic changes
signs of cerebral edema to look out for in dka
headache detorriation in mental status opthalplegia anisocria bushings sign (bradycardia+hypertension)
when to switch from iv insulin to sc insulin (preparation for outpatient)
- when ph is normal
- when bicarb is >15
- patient is tolerating oral feeds
The first SC insulin dose should be given 30 to 45 minutes before discontinuation of the IV insulin infusion.
= Starting doses are approximately 1U/kg/24 hours
=» Using a mixed split-dosing regimen including short-acting
insulin in conjunction with long-acting insulin — basalbolus scheme.
acanthuses nigricans is
a sign of insulin resistance
neonatal diabetes
<6 months different to type 1 because autoimmune and has 2 forms transient and permanent
which genetic disorders increase the risk ofdibates
downs and tuners
Much do the beta cells have to be destroyed in order to have the clinical signs of diabetes
80-90%
which genes increase risk of diabetes
HLA DR3/DR4 found in 90% of children with DM 1
what other diseases are associated with diabetes
HASHMIMOTOS hypothyroidism celiac disease RA Addiosons
antibodies to celiac
Tissue transglutaminase antibodies
antibodies to Addisons
21-hydroxylase antibodies
ab for hashimotos
Antiperoxidase thyroid antibodies
diagnosis of diabetes
fasting >7 or 7.8 not sure lol
random >11.1
raised glycosylated
criteria so far (check book)
ph <7.25
hco3 <15
ketonemia/ketonuria
complications of DKA
brain edema due to treatment 1. intracrhail thrombus! pulmonary edema 2. kidney failure/acute tubular necrosis 3. arrthmias due to k 4. bowel ischemia 5. pancreatitis
treatment of cerebral edam
Treatment: iv mannitol and intubation and hyperventilation
