Mark Klimek Lecture 5 January 26, 2018 Diabetes Diabetes – you don’t metabolize your glucose right. Due to lack of insulin or cells become resistant to insulin.Type 1 Diabetes Vs. Type 2 Diabetes Type 1 oInsulin dependent oJuvenile onset oKetosis Prone (makes ketones) Type 2 oNon insulin dependent oAdult onset oNon ketosis prone S/s oPolyuria oPolydipsia (increased thirst) oPolyphagia (increased hunger) Treatment Type 1 – insulin, exercise, diet (in order of importance) Type 2 – diet, oral hypoglycemic, activity (obesity reduction) can be treated with diet alone.Diet Restrictions of type 2 diabetics Calorie restrictions 1200-1800 This study source was downloaded by 100000796901680 from CourseHero.com on 03-26-2021 18:39:24 GMT -05:00

6 small feedings/day Insulin – LOWERS the blood glucose.Regular Insulin (humalin R, anything that ends in R) oOnset – 1 hour oPeak – 2 hours oDuration – 4 hours oClear (solution) CAN BE IV drip oShort rapid acting insulin (R stands for Rapid and Run) NPH – intermediate acting oOnset – 6 hours oPeak – 8-10 hours oDuration – 12 hours oCloudy (suspension) oN stands for Not so fast, Not in the bag (IV) Humolog, lispro – the most fastest acting insulin oOnset – 15 minutes oPeak – 30 minutes oDuration – 3 hours oGIVE with meals Lantus, Glargine – long acting insulin, so slow to absorb there is no esstential peak, they will not go hypoglycemic, only one you can give at bedtime oDuration – 12 – 24 hours ALWAYS check the expiration date on all insulins before opening, if you open an insulin it expires 30 days after opening Exercise potentiates (does the same thing) as insulin, if a diabetic is going to play soccer in the afternoon what should the nurse tell him to do? Take a carbohydrate snack to the game.When a diabetic is sick their insulin needs are going to go up, they have increased glucose. Sick diabetic has two problems; hyperglycemia and dehydration.

Complications of Diabetes Low blood glucose (hypoglycemic)

Causes:

oNot enough food oToo much insulin or medication (primary cause) oToo much exercise Can cause brain damage

S/S:

o“DRUNK IN SHOCK” oStaggering gait oSlurred speech oImpaired judgement oDelayed reaction time oLabile emotion oHypotension oTachycardia oTachypnea oCool pale skin

Treatment: rapidly metabolizable carbohydrate (sugar)

oANY juice oCandy oSkim milk oHoney oIcing oJam

oIdeal combination of food: crackers and orange juice (sugar and

starch), apple juice and slice of turkey (sugar and protein) High blood glucosde (DKA) Only type 1 can get DKA because they are ketosis prone and type 2 are nonketosis prone.

Causes:

oToo much food oNot enough medicaftion oNot enough exercise This study source was downloaded by 100000796901680 from CourseHero.com on 03-26-2021 18:39:24 GMT -05:00

oAcute viral upper respiratory infections within the last two weeks is the NUMBER 1 cause of DKA.

S/S:

oDehydration oKetones (blood, not urine), Kussmal (deep and rapid), High K+ oAcidotic (metabolic), Acetone breath, Anorexia due to nausea

Treatment:

oIv fluids fast 200ml/hr with regular insulin IV drip Higher priority over HHNK High blood sugar in type 2 (HHNK) Hyperosmolar, hyperglycemic, non-ketotic coma (HHNK) AKA dehydration Hot, flushed, warm skin

DX: fluid volume defecit

Treatment: give fluids

Outcomes: increased output, moist mucous membranes

More life threatening than DKA Long term complications of diabetes Renal failure Foot gangrene Peripheral neuropathy Poor tissue perfusion Which lab test is best indicator of glucose control?HA1C – glycosated hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1C You want it to be less than or equal to <6 >8 out of control If they’re at 7 they’re on the border and they need some workup and evaluation.
