Q

Less ADH production

Urine more (concentrated / dilute)

Risk for (dehydration/ Fluid overload)

A

Urine is more dilute with less ADH production.

Risk dehydration. Less ADH = more diuress

Q

Key Features

Early Onset – Typically appears in adolescence or early adulthood (before 25 years old).

Strong Family History – Autosomal dominant inheritance, meaning a 50% chance of passing it to offspring.

Mild Hyperglycemia – Can be managed with diet, oral medications, or low-dose insulin.

No Autoimmune Destruction – Unlike Type 1 diabetes, MODY is not caused by an autoimmune attack on beta cells.

Variable Clinical Presentation – Symptoms range from mild hyperglycemia to more severe diabetes requiring treatment.

Steps for administer insulin (5)
Clean the rubber stopper on the vial with an alcohol swab. Draw air into the syringe equal to the dose you need. Insert the needle into the vial, and push the air into the vial to prevent a vacuum. Invert the vial and draw up the correct dose of insulin. Check for air bubbles, and remove them by tapping the syringe and pushing the plunger slightly to expel the air.
