show Glucose  
🗑
What is the "problem" in Type 1 DM (what is the root source of the issue)?   show
🗑
show Type 1 DM  
🗑
show Type 1 DM, Juvenile-Dependent Diabetes  
🗑
What is the cause of Type 1 DM?   show
🗑
show Autoimmune; believed that something causes the body's immune system to destroy Normal Insulin producing cells  
🗑
show Viral Infection and Impaired Immune System  
🗑
What age group does Type 1 DM most commonly occur in?   show
🗑
show MUST have Insulin to SURVIVE, even if NOT EATING, to maintain basal requirements  
🗑
show MUST have Insulin to SURVIVE, even if NOT EATING, to maintain basal (basic) requirements for body function  
🗑
What type of disease is Type 2 DM?   show
🗑
What is the "problem" in Type 2 DM (what is the root source of the issue)?   show
🗑
In what age group does Type 2 DM occur?   show
🗑
show Type 2 DM  
🗑
What are two risk-factors for Type 2 DM?   show
🗑
What are the two most common types of Diabetes?   show
🗑
Definition: "Type 2 Diabetes"   show
🗑
show Gestational Diabetes  
🗑
What are women who have had Gestational Diabetes at increased risk for later in life?   show
🗑
What are more rare causes of Diabetes?   show
🗑
Definition: "Gestational Diabetes"   show
🗑
How does Insulin production change as we age?   show
🗑
What occurs when there is an Insulin shortage or Insulin resistance?   show
🗑
show Poly's: -Dypsia (thirst); -Phagia (hunger); -Urea (urination) Dry skin Blurred Vision Drowsiness Nausea  
🗑
show no  
🗑
show Brain, Spleen, Pancreas, Liver  
🗑
Why does the fact that some organs do NOT require Insulin to use Glucose make Glucose balance IMPERATIVE?   show
🗑
show as result of Illness, Injury, or Stress  
🗑
show slow/insidious onset, NO or None-Specific Symptoms  
🗑
What type of Diabetes do Polydipsia, Polyuria, and Polyphagia as symptoms apply to?   show
🗑
What characterizes the weight of a patient with Type 1 DM?   show
🗑
show usually obese  
🗑
What symptoms do Type 1 and Type 2 DM have in common?   show
🗑
show ACUTE - presents in DKA  
🗑
In which type of Diabetes is DKA more common?   show
🗑
What symptoms are unique to Type 2 DM?   show
🗑
show Type 2 DM  
🗑
show DKA is D/T lack of Insulin needed to get Glucose into cells = Fat breakdown to Glucose = Ketones in blood = DKA; Type 1 DM has TOTAL or Nearly total lack of Insulin, Type 2 usually has ENOUGH Insulin to keep DKA form occurring  
🗑
show Hyperglycemia; Hypoglycemia; DKA; Hyperglycemia-Hyperosmolar State (HHS) (HHNS)  
🗑
show Insulin  
🗑
How is Insulin administration Dosage usually determined in an acute-care setting?   show
🗑
How is DKA treated?   show
🗑
show "Diabetic KetoAcidosis"; sugars run high long enough that a high level of blood acid called ketones develop as a result of fat breakdown in an attempt to create fuel; ketones spill into urine and can be checked at home  
🗑
show Juice or other Carbohydrate (CHO) source first, then Protein 30 minutes later  
🗑
How is Hypoglycemia treated if patient is UNCONSCIOUS?   show
🗑
How long do you wait before giving Protein when treating a patient with Hypoglycemia?   show
🗑
What are the Symptoms of HHNS?   show
🗑
What can HHNS lead to?   show
🗑
What are the Symptoms of Hypoglycemia?   show
🗑
show decrease blood sugar concentration: Polydypsia = increased thirst = increased fluid volume = decreased sugar concentration Polyurea = increased urination = increased sugar excretion = decreased sugar concentration  
🗑
Are Polydypsia and Polyurea symptoms of Hypoglycemia (why/why not)?   show
🗑
show both  
🗑
show cells need fuel/glucose; cells aren't getting it, so body assumes you need to eat something to get glucose  
🗑
Why do Hypoglycemia and Hyperglycemia both have Hunger (Polyphagia) as a symptom?   show
🗑
Why does Hypoglycemia have Sweatiness (Diaphoresis) as a symptom?   show
🗑
show Hyperglycemia is a condition of too much Blood Glucose, or too much Glucose in relation to Fluid; Dry Skin is a result of Physiological compensation of Water Retention in Blood to DECREASE concentration of Glucose  
🗑
What symptoms are unique to Hyperglycemia (not shared by Hypoglycemia)?   show
🗑
What symptoms are unique to Hypoglycemia (not shared by Hyperglycemia)?   show
🗑
What are Chronic Complications of Hyperglycemia?   show
🗑
How can risks of Hyperglycemia be reduced?   show
🗑

🗑
What are symptoms (non "Hyper's" included in Metabolic Syndrome?   show
🗑
show syndrome describing a cluster of health problems related to Diabetes  
🗑

🗑
show Consistent Carbohydrate  
🗑
What does a Consistent Carbohydrate diet do?   show
🗑
show Diet and Exercise  
🗑
show ANY type of Stress whether Emotional or Physical; presence of Stress = higher Metabolic need of Glucose = higher Food intake (without elevated Insulin intake) = elevated Blood Glucose
