Controlled criteria for DM
Glycemic control: - Pre-prandial BG: 80-130 mg/dl. - Post prandial < 180 mg/dl -HbA1C < 7%
2. Body weight. 3. Control BP: (SBP < 130, DBP < 80). 4. Lipid profile: - Total C < 200 mg/dl -TG < 150mg/dl. - LDL- C < 100mg/dl, < 70mg/dl in presence of coronary artery diseases.
- HDL-C > 40 mg/dl in men, > 50 in women (> 45 in both sexes).
At what percentage of destruction does the panc have to b in to start experiencing symptoms of DM
90%
Most important step in management of a diabetic patient
Urine strip test analysis if it turns from yellow to green it means that it is glucose positive if it turns from white to Violet means it is ketone positive which indicates that this patient is unstable and in a state of diabetic ketoacidosis
Which test should be performed for patient presenting with a classical symptoms of hyperglycemia
random blood glucose test
Main factor contributing to gestational diabetes mellitus
Human placenta lactogen
High risk female for developing gestational diabetes Melitis
- High risk pregnant female: (MCQ) - factors that increase the risk of GDM are: Marked obesity. Previous GDM. Strong family history of DM. Old Age > 30 years. History of macrosomia.
Glycosuria.
Screening of GDM
Initial assessment during the first trimester for high risk patients and if found to be negative should be repeated again during the 24th to 28th weeks gestation
Screening method for gdm patients
The Two Step approach consists of a nonfasting oral 50-g glucose load, with a glucose blood measurement 1 hour later(+ve if more than 140)
If the 50-g glucose test is positive, it should be followed by a 100-g, 3-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)
Diagnostic criteria: - fasting ≥ 95 mg/dl - 1, hour ≥ 180 mg/dl - 2, hours ≥ 155 mg/dl - 3, hours ≥ 140 mg/dl
- ≥ 2 abnormal values to diagnose GDM.
TX of GDM
Insulin stopped after delivery and screen after 6 mo
no oral Hypogly cemics
recommended physical activity for diabetes
Moderate intensity Exercise 30 minutes 5 days a week
drugs to give to diabetes ptn with cardio vascular, kiddney and heart failure
SGLT2
GLP1
How do the intermediate and long acting insulin formulations provide their long lasting effects
Intermediate acting mph insulin is covered by PROTAMINE molecules which take a longer time to breakdown
Glargin works by making microcrystalline deposits in the subcutaneous fat so acts as a depot
detemir works by having a fatty acid chain that associates with Albumin prolonging the duration of action
degludec deck works by being a di hexamer That associates into multi di hexamers that take a long time to release insulin into the circulation
Types of pre mixed insulin
Premixed human insulin composed of 70% nph and 30% normal insulin premixed analogs which contain either 70% aspart proteomine and 30% aspart or 75% lispro protemen and regular lyspro and the final one is deludec 70% and 30% aspart
Premixed Degludec 70% and 30% liraglutide
what is the only non diabetic condition to give insulin to a patient
Certain conditions of hyperkalemia due to renal failure since the administration of insulin with glucose will promote the intracellular passage of potassium
How does insulin induce slight ecg changes
Insulin Promotes The passage potassium outside cells which might lead to hypokalemia
What is the contraindication of pramlintide
Ptns with diabetic gastroparesis
what is the best insulin based treatment regimen for diabetes
Basal bolus regimen
Equation for total daily dose of insulin
Weight multiplied by 0.54(type 1 DM)
Adjustment for Basal insulin when treating type one diabetes.
Adjustment of basal bolus insulin dose: - 1/2 TDD for bolus insulin dose (÷3 for each meal). - Fix fasting first (controlling fasting blood glucose will control postprandial blood glucose).
- Basal insulin is adjusted to achieve FBG < 130 mg/dl. 130 - 150 increase 2 units. 150 - 170 increase 4 units. 170 - 200 increase 6 units. > 200 increase 8 units.
Then adjust post prandial blood glucose (to reach ≤ 180) by adjusting bolus insulin increase corresponding dose by 2-4 units every 3-4 days (the doctor said
in the audio that it is 3-7 days, not before 3, better at 5 and best at 7 days).
Principle of Tx of type 2 dm
Kiss principle
what is the The Somogyi phenomenon
The Somogyi phenomenon: is morning hyperglycemia due to hypoglycemia that happened at night (due to night pp insulin) by the means of stress hormones that rise during the hypoglycemia (cortisol catecholamine glucagon) therefore the
solution is to decrease night dose of insulin or add a snack before bed.
The Dawn phenomenon: is morning hyperglycemia not due to hypoglycemia at night the cause is unclear but the solution is to increase the dose
of night insulin.
DKA triad
Uncontrolled hyperglycemia (Diabetic). * Increased total body ketone concentration (ketone).
* Metabolic acidosis (High anion gap) (Acidosis).
Alarming symptoms in DKA
GIT symptoms
