Obesity + DM (Lea) Flashcards

1
Q

What is obesity?

A

Obesity is a disorder of energy balance
Defined as 20% or more above ideal weight
Measured by Body Mass Index (BMI)
“A complex, multifactorial disease”
Weight (kg)/ (m)2 = BMI

Requires at least three of the following:

Q

Respiratory Effects of Obesity

A

Causes a restrictive ventilatory defect
Lungs are compressed lung volumes and compliance is reduced
Increase in pulmonary blood flow also reduces compliance
Lung inflation is inhibited by chest fat that compresses the ribcage and prevents outward expansion
Abdominal fat shifts the diaphragm towards the head

Q

volume of distribution in obese pts (lipophilic vs hydrophilic)

A
  • The Vd of lipophilic drugs is increased due to a larger fat mass
  • The Vd of hydrophilic drugs is increased due to a larger muscle mass and blood volume and increases some because of large plasma volume

Q

Vd in obese patients and rate of absorption

A

A

Composed of two tissue types:
1st. Acinar Cells

71
Q

Islets of Langerhans

A
  1. PP cells secrete pancreatic polypeptide whichinhibits exocrine secretions
  2. Delta cells secrete somatostatin which restrains the ratein which nutrients are absorbed (10%)
  3. Alpha cellssecrete glucagon which raises bloodsugar (25%)
  4. Beta cells secrete insulin and amylin. Insulin regulates fat and carbohydrate metabolism and causes the cell to take up glucose (70%)

106
Q

Diabetic Ketoacidosis

A

Lack of effective insulin
- Initial manifestation of DM
- Treatment errors
- Critical illnesses (MI, trauma, burns….)
- Infections
Increased serum glucose
- Increased hepatic glucose output & Decreased glucose uptake
Clinical hallmarks
- Metabolic acidosis - Dehydration - Electrolyte abnormalities

107
Q

Diabetic ketoacidosis - pathophys

A

Pathophysiology
Osmotic diuresis and a hyperosmolar state
Ketosis and acidosis
Low insulin levels = markedly increased glucagon levels - unchecked lipolysis = fatty acids are converted to ketone bodies
Acetoacetate and beta hydroxybutyrate cause metabolic acidosis

108
Q

Diabetic Ketoacidosis S&S

A

Polyuria
Polydipsia
Anorexia/Nausea/vomiting
Abdominal pain
Weakness & myalgias
Headache
Hypothermia
Kussmaul’s respirations
- Metabolic acidosis
- pH < 7.0 and/or [HCO3-] < 12 mEq/L
Acetone breath
Intravascular volume depletion
Hypo-reflexia
Altered mental status

109
Q

DKA labs initally

A

Glucose (300-800 mg/dl)
Ketones
HCO3- (0-15 mEq/L)
pH (6.80-7.30)
Na+ (total body depletion)
K+ (total body depletion)
Creatinine/BUN (slightly elevated BUN, Cr false increase)
Hemoconcentration
Leukocytosis
Hyperuricemia
Elevated lactate

110
Q

DKA Caveats

A

Diagnosis of DKA cannot be made without the presence of ketones
Glucose concentration is not a good index of the severity of metabolic derangement
Initially give NS to restore intravascular volume regardless of Na+ or K+ values
Phosphaturia accompanies all forms of metabolic acidosis

111
Q

DKA Tx

A

Replete volume
Treat hyperglycemia
Correct hyperosmolality
Reverse ketonemia
Reverse acidemia
Correct K+ depletion

112
Q

DKA fluid resusitation

A

Fluid resuscitation
NS 2-3 liters over first 2 hours
Thereafter - 1/2NS at high flow rates
Avoid LR
When BS approaches 250 mg/dl add D5W
Discontinue IV fluids when diet is tolerated and anion gap acidosis resolved

113
Q

DKA and K+

A

Profoundly depleted regardless of initial K+
Serum K+  by 0.6 mEq/L for ea 0.1  in pH below 7.40
20-30 mEq/hr is initiated
Observe for adequate UOP
Hypokalemia
- Rehydration
- Insulin therapy
- Correction of acidosis

114
Q

DKA & insulin replacement

A

IV bolus of regular insulin at 0.1u/kg
Regular insulin IV infusion at 0.1u/kg/hour
SC regular insulin 2 hours prior to discontinuation of insulin infusion
NaHCO3 - cardiovascular instability or altered mental status with pH < 7.0

115
Q

DKA & insulin replacement

A

IV bolus of regular insulin at 0.1u/kg
Regular insulin IV infusion at 0.1u/kg/hour
SC regular insulin 2 hours prior to discontinuation of insulin infusion
NaHCO3 - cardiovascular instability or altered mental status with pH < 7.0

116
Q

DKA complications

A

5% mortality
Infection
Arterial thrombosis
Shock
Lactic acidosis
Hyperchloremic acidosis
Cerebral edema
- H/A, papilledema & altered mental status
Hypokalemia
Hypophosphatemia (potassium phosphate)

117
Q

Hyperglycemic Hyperoslmar State (HHS)

A

Severe hyperglycemia > 800 mg/dl
Severe hyperosmolality > 350 mOsm/L
Profound intravascular volume depletion
- More severe than DKA
- 10-20% of total body wt.
Absence of ketoacidosis
Impaired renal function
Mental status changes

Patient profile:
- Elderly
- Mild, type II diabetes
- Symptomatic polyuria
- Loss of ability to ingest or retain fluids as a result of illness, drugs or injury

118
Q

A
119
Q

Preop considerations

A

Metabolic Aberrations
End – Organ complications
Peripheral neuropathies & Stiff joints
Renal disease
ANS dysfunction – delayed gastric emptying
BG – ketones – electrolytes – BUN – creatinine – UA - ECG

120
Q

DM autonomic neuropathy

A

Painless myocardial ischemia
Orthostatic hypotension
Lack of heart rate variability (fixed tachycardia)
Reduced HR response to atropine and beta blockers
Neurogenic bladder
Lack of sweating
Impotence
Gastroparesis

121
Q

DM & airway

A

Glycosylation of joints– stiff joint syndrome with reduced ROM of AO joints
The prayer sigh suggests joint glycosylation and increases the risk of difficult intubation

122
Q

Prayer Sign

A

A + prayer sign can be elicited on exam w/ the patient unable to approximate the palmar surfaces of the phalangeal joints while pressing their hands together.

demonstrates a cervical spine immobility and the potential for difficult intubation

Depends. If you do IBW, you’ll get adequate intubating conditions and faster recovery but shorter duration. If you use TBW, you’ll get faster onset but longer duration. (well fucking DUH is this answer for real)
