true

45
Q

t/f adults and pedia have different cut offs

A

false, they have the same

46
Q

when to request for ogtt

A

when patient’s fbg is not high but patient has signs and symptoms, family history, and high index of suspicion

47
Q

additional work up for dm

A

serum insulin (low in t1dm)
c-peptide (low in t1dm, high in t2dm)
ica and anti-gad (+ for t1dm, + or - in t2dm)

48
Q

preferred treatment for t2dm in children

ohas are not used, use insulin sensitizers

49
Q

daily sc injections for t1dm

rapid acting insulin + long acting insulin
intermediate insulin + short acting insulin
2-4 injections a day regimens

50
Q

__ injections a day mimics the normal physiologic insulin production of the body

metformin

53
Q

progression of treatment for t2dm in children

symptomatic
increased blood glucose levels
hba1c >8% (+ dka or hhs)

55
Q

glucose management for toddlers and preschool (0-6 yo)

58
Q

why are values for toddlers’ glucose management higher

A

to avoid hypogly, seizures, or loss of consciousness because they don’t always report what they’re feeling

59
Q

main cause of morbidity/mortality in children with t1dm

A

dka

60
Q

pathophysiology of dka

A

low insulin, high counter-regulatory hormones -> inc glucose from liver/kidney, dec peripheral glucose use -> hypergly, proteolysis, lipolysis -> ketosis and met acid

61
Q

clinical manifestation of dka

A

glucosuria leading to dehydration
catabolic state leading to body weakness
ketonemia and met acid

62
Q

common misdiagnoses of dka

A

penumonia, bronchitis, asthma, uti, gastritis

if PE and tachypnea don’t match, do a cbg or rbs

63

hypergly (>200 mg/dl)
venous ph <7.3
serum hco3 <15 mmol/l

64
Q

mild ph <7.3 shco3 <15
moderate ph <7.2 shco3 <10
severe ph <7.1 shco3 <5

65
Q

66
Q

dka management

A

hypergly + milk ketosis, no vomiting or severe dehydration: wards

if in shock with poor peripheral perfusion or come give 10 cc/kg of plain 0.9 nss x 10-30 min until pulses are good

insulin therapy after reversal of shock and 1-2 hrs after fluid replacement

70
Q
