3. Administer a rapid-acting or short-acting pre-meal insulin dose based on a pre-determined carbohydrate-to-insulin ratio
32
What are the insulin requirements for T1DM?
- Type 1DM: (normal weight) 0.5-1.0 units insulin /kg body weight /day
- 40-50% of total insulin for basal
- Remainder (rapid acting insulin)- divided for meals
- Can be divided proportionately to CHO content
- Or divided as 1-1.5 units of insulin/ 10-15g CHO consumed
33
What are the insulin requirements for T2DM?
- Type 2 DM: 0.5-1.2 units insulin /kg body weight/ day
| - Larger dose may be needed (> 1.5units/kg BW) initially due to insulin resistance;
34
What can alter dosing of insulin?
- Larger amount often needed to cover breakfast due to effect of morning counter regulatory hormones;
- Smaller dose may be used when insulin combined with oral meds.
35
How do you determine total daily insulin requirements?
- Total daily insulin requirement:[ wt (lbs.) divided by 4] or [0.55 X wt (kg)]= units insulin;

- T1DM w/ trace to sm. Amt. ketones or T2DM w/ BMI
36
How much of daily insulin is BASAL?
*Basal: 50% of Total Daily Insulin
-Example: If TDI = 50 units
— 50% of 50 units = 25 units of long acting (or rapid if pump)
— 50% of 50 units = 25 units for bolus (then divided into 3 meals à 8 units/meal)
37
How much of daily insulin is BOLUS?
(Bolus insulin dose may be adjusted for individual meals based on glucose response)
38
What are CHO to Insulin ratios
- Based on matching the CHO content of food to be eaten with rapid-acting or short-acting insulin
- Each person can have different ratios
- CHO: insulin can vary from meal to meal
- C:I allows pt to figure out how many units of insulin would be needed to cover a meal
- Could also be used to decrease insulin if decreasing CHO intake in that meal or snack
39
What are the general guidelines for insulin adjustments?
1. Limit changes in insulin up or down to 1 or 2 units of one insulin (basal or bolus)
— No more than once in 3-4 days
2. Adjust only the insulin that affects the abnormal bg value
— ↑ insulin if bg is too high
— ↓ insulin if bg is too low
40

66
What are the kidney nephrons?
- Functional unit of kidney approx. 1.2 million nephrons in each kidney;
- contains glomerulus;
- glomerulus connected to tubules;
- Each nephron functions separately BUT Coordination of control = If one segment of a nephron is destroyed, the nephron no longer functions
67
What is the primary function of the kidneys?
Maintain balance of fluids, electrolytes, and organic solutes through continuous filtration of blood
68
What are the tubules of the kidney?

- Approx. 1.5 L of urine excretion/day
- Process is mainly PASSIVE (perfusion pressure from heart)
71
What occurs in the Renal Tubules?
- Where most re-absorption occurs
- Re-absorption: amino acids, glucose, select minerals, water
- Secretion: of solutes, water
- Much of this process: ACTIVE (involves ATP)
72
How much urine is excreted daily?
- Fixed solute load of about 600mOsm — Majority = NITROGENOUS waste;
- Can excrete very concentrated OR very dilute urine
- Given the fixed solute load & minimum of 500ml concentrated urine --- 12L of dilute urine = MINIMUM requirement to function
73
What regulates urine excretion?
- Regulated by vasopressin and RAAS contributes:
1. Decreased blood volume — secretion of renin = Angiotensinogen 2
2. Vasocontriction and aldosterone secretion (effects Na+ and K+)
74
What is Oliguria?
Urine volume < 500ml/day
75
What is Azotemia?
- Excessive build up of nitrogenous waste (urea, uric acid, creatinine, ammonia);
- abnormally high levels of nitrogen-containing compounds (such as urea, creatinine, various body waste compounds, and other nitrogen-rich compounds) in the blood. It is largely related to insufficient filtering of blood by the kidneys
76
What is Renal Failure?
inability of kidney to eliminate daily waste
77
What are the other physiological functions of the kidneys?
1. Maintenance of pH
2. Production of erythropoietin (EPO)
3. Maintenance of calcium-phosphorous homeostasis
78
What maintains calcium-phosphorous homeostasis?
- Involves complex interactions of PTH, calcitonin, active Vit. D
- Involves gut, kidney, bone
79
How do the kidneys help to maintain calcium-phosphorous homeostasis?
1. Production of active form of Vitamin D
- Calcium absorption at gut
- Suppression of PTH production (PTH mobilizes Ca from bone)
2. Elimination of calcium & phosphorous
- Decreased ability to excrete phosphorous and build up affects parathyroid hormone, calcium levels, neurological function
80
What are the secondary complications of renal dysfunction?
Hyperparathyroidism and Renal osteodystrophy
81
What is Renal Osteodystrophy?
– generalized BONE disease related to Chronic Kidney Disease
82
How does decreased kidney function cause hyperparathyroidism and renal osteo?
1. Decreased ability of kidney to convert inactive Vit.D to active form = decreased Ca+ absorption at the gut
2. Decreased reabsorption of Ca+ and decreased excretion of Phosphorous = too LITTLE calcium & too MUCH phosphorous
3. Increased serum Phosphorous = Increased PTH release = Parathyroid hyperplasia = secondary hyperparathyroidism = RENAL OSTEODYSTROPHY
**Imbalance in Ca and P = Calcification of Soft tissues (Vessels, sexual functions, gland organs, etc.)
83

What is common with both types of dialysis?
Hemodialysis (HD), or Peritoneal dialysis (PD) = blood passes across selective, semi permeable membrane exposed to rinsing fluid (dialysate)
— (HD): membrane is manmade
— (PD): membrane = lining of peritoneal wall
106
How does dialysis work?
- Diffusion, ultrafiltration, osmosis= methods by which waste and excess fluid is removed. NO direct contact between dialysate and blood.
- Fluid and electrolyte balance maintained: via varying ion & mineral content of dialysate
107

- Pro’s/con’s of each – kidney school modules
110
What is Peritoneal Dialysis (PD)?
- Membrane is lining of patients peritoneal wall
- Access via catheter surgically implanted into peritoneal cavity
- Dialysate containing high-dextrose concentration is instilled into peritoneum
- Solutes (waste) from plasma in capillaries in peritoneal wall pass across peritoneal membrane into dialysate (by diffusion)
- Water moves by osmosis
- Once dialysis is complete, dialysate is removed from peritoneum
- Dwell time and number of exchanges is variable
111
What is the difference in Dwell Time and Exchange Times?

What is the MNT for Stages 3-4 CKD?
* *AND’s EBNPG (evidence-based) for CKD 2010
1. Adequate kcal to prevent malnutrition
2. Adequate protein to maintain muscle mass and serum proteins yet slow progression of CKD
3. TLC as indicated to manage blood lipids
129
What are the kcal recommendations for Stages 3-4 CKD?
→ Very hard with all the restriction to meet needs;
- Adults not on dialysis: 23kcal./kg - 35 kcal./kg
- Overweight adults with Diabetes, not on dialysis:1780-1823 kcal.
130
What are the protein recommendations for Stages 3-4 CKD?
-For patients with CKD and no DM: 0.6-0.8gm/kg (with GFR<50)
-For patients with Diabetic Nephropathy – 0.8-0.9gm/kg
— Intakes at 0..7g/kg and less may contribute to hypoalbuminemia
-Evidence that 0.7gm/kg slows decline of GFR (for patients without DM Nephropathy)
**No recommendation to restrict protein at stage 1-2
131
What are the additional recommendations for Stages 3-4 CKD?
PROTEIN =
- If adequate energy intake not possible with 0.6g/kg protein restriction, increase to 0.75g/kg
- Important to weigh benefits of protein restriction with risks of malnutritionà need for close monitoring
- HTN must be well controlled for patient to receive benefits of protein “restriction”
- Per DCCT, BG management more important in delaying onset of renal failure than protein restriction (in patients with DM)
132
What are the mineral recommendations or Stages 3-4 CKD?
1. Sodium: < 2.4g/day

4 .Calcium: total elemental calcium intake from all sources (diet, supp., binders) – not to exceed 2g/day (generally restriction w/dialysis)
5. Fluid: based on management of HTN, fluid build up, urine output
6. Vitamin D: supplement if 1,25 DihydroxyD3 < 30ng/ml
7. Iron: supplement w/ oral or IV Fe if ser ferritin < 100ng/ml and transferrin saturation < 20%
133
How do you assess malnutrition with Stage 3-4?
K/DOQI clinical practice guidelines (stage 4) → Assessing Malnutrition =

Ex. of behav. Goal: energy intake >80% recommended level
Ex. of biochem/hemat.goal: achieves optimal lab values
135

- Counsel on limiting high potassium foods (HD)
- PD- adjust per serum levels. Generally less need for restriction. May need supplement
141
What are the Fluid and Sodium recommendations with stage 5 CKD?
* *Highly individualized based on residual urine output and dialysis modality
- Interdialytic weight gain (HD) should not exceed 5% of body weight
- 2 gram sodium diet
- Not more than 1 L fluid daily
- If urine output > 1 L/day, sodium and fluid can be liberalized to 2-4 g and 2 L
- Also consider BP, Edema, CHF
142
What are the Fluid and Sodium recommendations with stage 5 CKD on PD?
