What is the onset of long acting insulin?
0.8 - 4 hr
25
What is the peak of long-acting insulin?
less defined/not pronounced
26
What is the duration of long-acting insulin?
16-24 hrs
27
What are examples of rapid acting insulins?
1) Lispro (HumaLog) 2) Aspart (NovoLog) 3) Glulisine (Apidra)
28
What are examples of long acting insulin?
1) Glargine (Lantus) 2) Detemir (Levemir) 3) Degludec (Tresiba)
29
What type of insulin is the most likely to cause hypoglycemia?
Short-acting because duration of action is longer
29
What types of insulin are used to control blood glucose between meals/overnight?
Intermediate & long-acting
30
What insulins should be given at mealtime?
Short-acting & rapid
31
What are the 2 combinations of mixed insulins?
1) Intermediate & short 2) Intermediate & long
32
If drawing up 2 types of insulin, how do you draw them up?
Clear before cloudy (NPH)
33
What are the T2DM meds?
1) Metformin 2) DPP-4 inhibitors 3) GLP-1 & dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonsits 4) SGLT2 inhibitors 5) Sulfonylureas 6) Type 2 diabetics
34
What is the first medication choice for a T2D?
Metformin
35
How does metformin decrease BG?
1) Suppress glucose output by liver 2) Improve insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues 3) Decrease intestinal absorption of glucose
36
What T2D med is well-tolerated, and does not cause weight gain or risk of hypoglycemia?
DPP-4 Inhibitors
37
What is insulin produced by?
Beta cells
37
What are the functions of insulin?
1) Stims active transport of glucose into muscle & fat cells 2) Promotes conversion of glucose to glycogen for storage 3) Stims protein synthesis 4) Promotes conversion of fatty acids into fat
38
What is glucagon synthesized by?
Alpha cells
39
What kind of agent is insulin?
Hypoglycemic agent
40
What kind of agent is glucagon?
Hyperglycemic agent
41
True or False: Glucagon works in opposition of insulin
True
42
What are the counterregulatory hormones?
Cortisol Epinephrine Growth hormone
43
Why does T1DM occur (patho)?
D/t destruction of beta cells, so not enough insulin can be produced
44
What autoimmune diseases usually trigger T1DM?
Celiac, Crohns, and Lupus
45
Why does T2DM occur (patho)?
Defects at the cell membrane prevent insulin action -- causing insulin resistance
46
What are modifiable RFs for T2DM?
-Obesity -Physical inactivity -Lipid levels (high tris and low HDL)
47
What are non-modifiable RFs of T2DM?
-1st degree relative -Ethnicity -Birthing big baby -HTN -PCOS
48
What are the main sx of T1DM?
Polyuria, Polydipsia, Polyphagia *More sudden/rapid onset
49
What are the sx of T2DM
-Recurrent infections -Poor wound healing -Blurred vision -Less often 3 Ps -Wt loss -Fatigue
50
What are the diagnostic testings for DM?
1) Sx with random plasma glucose 2) HA1C 3) Fasting plasma glucose 4) OGTT
51
What is the only test that does not have to be repeated and is considered diagnostic?
Sx with random plasma glucose >/= 200 mg/dL
52
What would be considered diabetic results for an OGTT?
>/= 200 mg/dL
53
What would be considered a diabetic result for a fasting plasma glucose?
>/= 126 mg/dL
54
What would be considered a diabetic result for someone with sx and a random plasma glucose test?
>/= 200 mg/dL
55
What would be considered diabetic results for an HA1C test?
6.5% or above
56
What is HA1C?
1) measures amount of glucose bound to RBCs 2) Shows avg blood glucose values overtime (6-8 weeks)
57
What is a normal HA1C value?
4-6%
58
What is the goal HA1C for a diabetic patient?
59
What is a normal fasting plasma glucose?
70-100/110
60

60
What are the 3 main types of carbs?
Starches, Sugars, Fiber
61

-Fruits -Brown rice -Whole wheat bread -Starchy veggies (potatoes, corn) -Beans
62
What are examples of carbs that should be eaten less?
Refined, highly processed foods -Soda, white bread, sugary cereal
63
When does lipodystrophy occur?
When injection site is not changed frequently
64
What is lipodystrophy?
Atrophy (indentation) or hypertrophy (thickening/scar tissue) of subQ tissue
65
What is Dawn's Phenomenon?
Increased BG in the early AM caused by hormone release -Most common in T1DM
66
What is the Somogyi Effect?
Excess insulin dosage at night (common in T1DM) resulting in decreased BG
67
True or false: Insulin can worsen hyperkalemia
False -- insulin can worsen hypokalemia
68
What causes macrovascular comps?
Diseases of large & medium-sized blood vessels
69
