Diabetes: A global emergency

Diabetes around the world

Diabetes around the world

Pancreas secretes 40-50 units of insulin daily in two steps:

Secreted at low levels during fasting ( basal insulin secretion)

Increased levels after eating (prandial)

An early burst of insulin occurs within 10 minutes of eating

Then proceeds with increasing release as long as hyperglycemia is present

Insulin

Insulin allows glucose to move into cells to make energy

Inhibits glucagon activity

DIABETES MELLITUS

is a chronic disorder of carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism resulting from insulin deficiency or abnormality in the use of insulin

Types1.Type I

formerly known as Insulin –Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM)Autoimmune (Islet cell antibodies)

•Early introduction of cow’s milk and cereals•Intake of medicine during pregnancy •Indoor smoking of family members

destruction of beta cells of the pancreas little or no insulin productionrequires daily insulin admin. may occur at any age, usually appears below age 15

2. Type II formerly known as Non Insulin–Dependent

Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM) probably caused by: disturbance in insulin reception in the cells number of insulin receptors loss of beta cell responsiveness to glucose

leading to slow or insulin release by the pancreas

occurs over age 40 but can occur in children common in overweight or obese w/ some circulating insulin present, often do

not require insulin

Gestational diabetes

3.Gestational Diabetes ;

a).blood sugar levels are high during

pregnancy in women

b) .Women who give birth to children over 9 lbs.

c). high risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease

Pre-Diabetes

Impaired fasting glucose (IFG)

FPG- 100-125mg/dL

Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT)

OGTT 140-199mg/dL

HbA1c 5.7-6.4%

Criteria for the Diagnosis of Diabetes

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Classification and diagnosis of diabetes. Diabetes Care 2016; 39 (Suppl. 1): S13-S2216

Clinical Manifestations ( Signs and Symptoms)

- Polyuria - weakness- Polydipsia - fatigue- Polyphagia - blood sugar / glucose level- weight loss - (+) glucose in urine (glycosuria)- nausea / vomiting - changes in LOC (severe hyperglycemia)

(sleepiness, drowsiness coma)- recurrent infection, prolonged wound healing- altered immune and inflammatory response, prone to

infection (glucose inhibits the phagocytic action of WBC resistance)

- genital pruritus – (hyperglycemia and glycosuria favor fungalgrowth : candidal infection – resulting in pruritus, commonpresenting symptom in women)

- Erectile dysfunction

Diagnostics

Fasting Plasma Glucose

Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)

Glycoselated Hemoglobin (HbA1c)

HbA1c is a test that measures the

amount of glycated hemoglobin in

your blood. Glycated hemoglobin is a

substance in red blood cells that is

formed when blood sugar (glucose)

attaches to hemoglobin.

Urinalysis

Glycosuria

Ketone bodies

Diabetes Mellitus

Summary Treatable, but not curable.

Preventable in obesity, adult client.

Controllable- DIET and EXERCISE

Diagnostic Tests

Signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.

Treatment of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia – diet and oral hypoglycemics.

Nursing implications – monitoring, teaching and assessing for complications.

Management of DM

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Classification and diagnosis of diabetes. Diabetes Care 2016; 39 (Suppl. 1): S13-S2225

The major components of the

treatment of diabetes are:

• Medical Nutrition Therapy (Diet and Exercise) [MNT]1

• Oral Antihyperglycemic Drug [OAD]2

• Insulin & Other Injectables326

Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT)

● An individualized MNT program is

recommended for all people with type 1 and type 2

diabetes.

● For people with T1DM or those with T2DM who

are on a flexible insulin program, education on carb

counting or estimation.

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Foundations of care and the comprehensive medical evaluation. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S23-S3527

…….MNT

● For patients on a fixed insulin

program, having a consistent pattern of

carbohydrate intake with respect to time

and amount can result in improved

glycemic control and a reduced risk of

hypoglycemia.

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Foundations of care and the comprehensive medical evaluation. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S23-S3528

Adults with diabetes: at least 150 min/wk of

moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 30

minutes brisk walking over at least 3

days/week with no more than 2

consecutive days without exercise

Physical Activity

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Foundations of care and the comprehensive medical evaluation. Diabetes Care 2016; 39 (Suppl. 1): S23-S3529

Children with diabetes/prediabetes:

at least 60 min/day physical activity

Physical Activity

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Foundations of care and the comprehensive medical evaluation. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S23-S3530

All individuals, including those with diabetes,should reduce sedentary time, particularly bybreaking up extended amounts of time (>90min) spent sitting.

Physical Activity

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Foundations of care and the comprehensive medical evaluation. Diabetes Care 2016; 39 (Suppl. 1): S23-S3531

Advise all patients not to use cigarettes, othertobacco products, or e-cigarettes.

Include smoking cessation counseling and otherforms of treatment as a routine component ofdiabetes care.

Smoking Cessation

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Foundations of care and the comprehensive medical evaluation. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S23-S3532

A complete medical evaluation should be performedat the initial visit to:

Confirm & classify diagnosis

Detect complications & potential comorbidconditions

Glycemic Targets

36

Two primary techniques available for health

providers and patients to assess effectiveness of

management plan on glycemic control

1. Patient self-monitoring of blood glucose

(SMBG)

2. A1C

..Glycemic Control

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4637

CGM or interstitial glucose may be a useful

adjunct to SMBG in selected patients.

Glycemic Control

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4638

Patients on multiple-dose insulin (MDI) or insulin pump therapy should do SMBG

Prior to meals and snacks

At bedtime

Prior to exercise

When they suspect low blood glucose

Glucose Monitoring

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4639

When they suspect low blood glucose

After treating low blood glucose until they are normoglycemic

Prior to critical tasks such as driving

Possibly also post-prandially

Glucose Monitoring

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4640

Perform the A1C test at least twice annually in

patients that meet treatment goals (and have stable

glycemic control).

Perform the A1C test quarterly in patients whose

therapy has changed or who are not meeting

glycemic goals.

A1C Testing

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4641

Perform the A1C test quarterly in patients whose therapy has changed or who are not meeting glycemicgoals.

Use of point-of-care (POC) testing for A1C provides the opportunity for more timely treatment changes.

A1C Testing

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4642

Lowering A1C to <7% has been shown to reduce

microvascular complications and, if implemented

soon after the diagnosis of diabetes, is associated

with long-term reduction in macrovascular

disease.

Glycemic Goals in Adults

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4643

Consider more stringent goals (e.g. <6.5%)

for select patients if achievable without

significant hypos or other adverse effects.

Glycemic Goals in Adults

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4644

A1C <7.0%*

Preprandial capillary plasma glucose

4.4–7.2 mmol/L*

(80–130 mg/dL)

Peak postprandial capillary plasma

glucose†

<10.0 mmol/L*

(<180 mg/dL)

Glycemic Recommendations forNonpregnant Adults with Diabetes

* Goals should be individualized.† Postprandial glucose measurements should be made 1–2 hours after the beginning of the meal.

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Glycemic targets. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S39-S4645

An A1C goal of <7.5% is recommended across all pediatric age-groups.

Type 1 Diabetes: GlycemicControl

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes.

Children and adolescents. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S86-S9346

Blood glucose goal range

A1C Rationale

Before mealsBedtime/

overnight

5.0–7.2 mmol/L

(90–130 mg/dL)

5.0–8.3 mmol/L

(90–150 mg/dL)<7.5%

A lower goal (<7.0%)

is reasonable if it can

be achieved without

excessive hypos

T1 DM: Glycemic Control

1. Goals should be individualized; lower goals may be reasonable.

2. Modify BG goals in youth w/ frequent hypos or hypoglycemia unawareness.

3. Measure postprandial BG if discrepancy between preprandial BG and A1C & to

assess glycemia in basal–bolus regimens. American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes.

Children and adolescents. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S86-S9347

Approaches to Glycemic Treatment

48

Most people with T1DM should be treated with

multiple dose insulin (MDI) injections (3–4 injections

/day of basal & prandial insulin) or continuous

subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII).

Individuals who have been successfully using CSII

should have continued access after they turn 65 years

old.

Pharmacological Therapy for T1DM

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Approaches to

glycemic treatment. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S52-S5949

Pharmacological Therapy for T1DM

Consider educating individuals with T1DM on

matching prandial insulin dose to carbohydrate

intake, premeal blood glucose, and anticipated

activity.

Most individuals with T1DM should use insulin

analogs to reduce hypoglycemia risk.

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Approaches to

glycemic treatment. Diabetes Care 2016; 39 (Suppl. 1): S52-S5950

Pramlintide FDA approved for T1DM

Amylin analog

Delays gastric emptying, blunts pancreatic

glucose secretion, enhances satiety

Induces weight loss, lowers insulin dose

Requires reduction in prandial insulin to reduce

risk of severe hypos

American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Approaches to

glycemic treatment. Diabetes Care 2017; 39 (Suppl. 1): S52-S5951

Can normalize glucose but require lifelong

immunosuppression.

The progressive nature of T2DM should be

regularly & objectively explained to T2DM

patients.

For T2DM patients not achieving glycemic goals,

promptly initiate insulin therapy.

Avoid using insulin as a threat, describing it as a

failure or punishment.

Give patients a self-titration algorithm.

Insulin initiation in Type 2 DM:

When

1. HbA1c ≥ 10% [start combination insulins] (ADA 2017) but if

HbA1c ≥ 9%, Basal alone may be initiated

2. Symptomatic hyperglycemia

3. PPG > 19.4 mmol/L, FPG> 16.6 moml/L

4. If the glycemic target is not achieved by using three non-insulin

agents (metformine/pioglitazone, secretagogue,

ɑGi/DPP4i/SGLT2i) by at least 3 months

5. In some specific situations

Short term use of insulin therapy in patients

with T2DM may also be considered in the

following conditions:

• Acute illness, surgery, stress and emergencies

• Pregnancy and lactation

• As initial therapy in T2DM with severe

hyperglycemia

• Severe metabolic decompensation (eg. DKA,

HHS)

½ Bolus or 1/3rd regular Insulin

Calculated daily dose of insulin:

1st trimester-0.8 unit ×kg BW

2nd trimester- 1 unit ×kg BW

3rd trimester- 1.3 unit×kg BW

The dose and type of insulin used is calculated

according to the blood glucose level

If the FBG is high then, a long acting (or

intermediate- acting insulin), is given before

bedtime.

If postprandial blood glucose levels are high,

then regular rapid-acting insulin are added before

meals.

Insulin Therapy cont.

Regular Insulin is withheld during labor; a

sliding scale of soluble insulin should be started

(or infusion pump as may be fit)

Maternal hyperglycemia should be avoided

during labor to prevent fetal hyperinsulinemia

and subsequent neonatal hypoglycemia

Maternal blood glucose should be maintained

between 4- 5 mmol/L.

Peripartum Management:

Key Take-Home Messages

MNT is the corner stone of diabetes

management.

MNT is also essential to reach optimal

glycemic control with fewer hypoglycemic

episodes

85

Key Take-Home Messages

OADs may attain or maintain good glycemic

control for a variable periods

Insulin may need to be started in any time

mean while.

Biology of MicrovascularInjury

Microvascular Complications of Diabetes-1

Retinopathy: Damage to blood vessels in and around the retina. It could occur with varying degrees of severity.

Normal ------------- Small hemorrhages --------- Large hemorrhage

Nephropathy:

Glomeruli are damaged in the kidneys.

Results in loss of protein

DIAGNOSTIC VALUE-Normal microalbumin level is 30mg/24 hours.

May lead to kidney failure

Microvascular Complications of Diabetes-2

Microvascular Complications of Diabetes-3

Neuropathy

Nerve fibres degenerate

Blood vessels supplying the nerves are ‘grossly diseased’
