43
Q

why is liver disease linked with malnutrition?

A

reduces nutrition intake and leads to malabsorption through diarrhea ns vomiting,

44
Q

what nutrition therapy can help cirrhosis

A

high energy increases, small freq meals, moderate protein intake throughout the day, lower fat intake and CHO depends if diabetic, restricted sodium (edema, and kidney function, Vit and Min supplementation

45
Q

what are some consequences of Cirrhosis

A

portal HTN, Collaterals and gastroesophageal varies, ascites, jaundice, hepatic encephalopathy,

46
Q

what is diabetes mellitus

A

sweet urine, and increase glucose levels -

- metabolic disorder caused by alter glucose regulation and utilization, and you are unable to secret enough insulin

47
Q

type 1 diabetes-

A

5-10% cases, onset in younger than 30 years, little or no insulin prod from pancreas- insulin injections required.

48
Q

type 2 diabetes

A

90-95% onset, individuals older than 40 - indi is insulin resistant and can prod it but not used effectively, - may need infections

49
Q

how do you dvlp insulin resistance,

A

blood glucose increases after meal and insulin is released then body cells don’t respond to it and the pancreas secrets more insulin which is then able to keep blood glucose normal

50
Q

how to diagnose insulin resistant

A

fasting blood glucose(>126mg/dl), random blood glucose(>200), oral glucose tolerance test(75), glycerite hemoglobin (HbA1c) (6.5%)

51
Q

CHO, PRO, FAT metabolism and acute complications of insulin insufficiently

A

CHO- lower glucose uptake an increased glycogen breakdown– hyperglycemia and exceeds the renal threshold
FAT- increase TG breakdown in adipose tissue- increase blood TG and increase the use of TG for energy- hypertriglyceridemia, ketones produced
PRO- increase protein breakdown, and decrease synthesis ( muscle wasting)- increase blood AA- increase liver glucose prof and blood glucose

52
Q

signs and symptoms of hyperglycemia

A

glucosuria, polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia, weight loss, fatigue, blurred vision, ketoacidosis(type 1), hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome(type 2),

53
Q

glucosuria

A

glucose in urine

54
Q

polydipsia

A

increase thirst

55
Q

polyuria

A

increase urine

56
Q

polyphagia

A

increase appetite

57
Q

ketoacidosis

A

acetone breathe, labored breathing

58
Q

hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome

A

DEHYDRATION- muscle weakness, speech complication, HIGH blood sugar

59
Q

treatment for hypoglycemia (low Blood sugar)

A

raise BS, 15 g carbs, glucose tablets

60
Q

signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia

A

shakes, sweats, confusion, palptation, weakness, dizziness

61
Q

cho intake in therapy for diabetes

A

if on insulin- cho intake needs to match insulin to maintain Blood glucose within the ideal range.
if NO insulin- equal CHO distribution throughout the day with portion control
- carb counting, diabetes plate

62
Q

portion for carb counting and what it does

A

1 cho portion is 15 g, x amt per meal, teaches the client to focus mainly on cho content in food, uses tables, portion control,

63
Q

diabetes plate uses

A

good for T2 diabetes, simple, emphasizes portion control and healthy choices.

64
Q

what does physical activity do for indi with diabetes

A

increase glucose uptake into muscles and liver, increase insulin sensitivity, can Improve blood glucose levels,

65
Q

oliguria (kidneys)

A

diminished urine production

66
Q

anuria (kindeys)

A

no urine production

67
Q

causes of acute kidney injury

A

critical illness, sepsis (infection), major surgery

68
Q

treatment for an acute kidney injury

A

dialysis, diet, meds

69
Q

a major function of the kidney

A

filter blood, reg blood pressure, stimulate RBC, maintain bone structure (vit D activation)

70
Q

when the kidneys filter blood what is happening

A

elim fluids, maintain electrolytes, form urine, metabolic waste filtration,

71
Q

what is chronic kidney disease

A

characterized by gradual irreversible deterioration of kidneys

72
Q

common cuases of chronic kidney disease

A

44% diabetes, 38% HTN, affects 15% of adults

73
Q

3 tests to determine Chronic kidney disease

A

blood tests, urine albumin, glomerular filtration rate.

74
Q

CKD blood test

A

uses blood urea nitrogen(BUN) and creatine

75
Q

CKD urine albumin

A

increased with kidney disease

76
Q

CKD filtration rate

A

calc from how much creatinine and lowers as kidney disease worsened.

77
Q

CKD BUN

A

blood urea nitrogen and creatinine increases in CKD

78
Q

consequences of CKD

A

lower GFR (ability to filter blood), cardiovascular complication, anemia, bone disease, growth failure (malnutrition), GI disturbance, uremia,

79
Q

what happens when GFR decreases

A

potassium phosphorus all increase in blood, and there is an increase in pro in blood

80
Q

treatment for CKD

A

manage causes first, transplant, then dialysis

81
Q

dietary intervention in CKD

A

varies on the individual but energy needs are often very high

82
Q

dietary intervention in CKD - pro-energy malnutrition

A

primary - poor dietary intake

secondary- vomiting, nausea, uremia, medication

83
Q

dietary intervention in CKD - phosphorus

A

restricted, given phosphorus binders make phosphorus not absorbable.

84
