NURS 111G INTRODUCTION TO DIABETES WITH
COMPLETE SOLUTIONS!!
diabetes mellitus
chronic multisystem disease, causing elevated blood glucose
type 1
body does not produce insulin
type 2 diabetes
insulin resistance
insulin
hormone produced by the pancreas
hypoglycemia
low blood sugar
hyperglycemia
high blood sugar
4 different types of diabetes
type 1
type 2
,gestational
other
what type of diabetes is more common in children?
type 1
what percentage of type 2 patients are overweight?
85%
stable levels of blood glucose
74-106
insulin pathophysiology
helps glucose enter the cells from the bloodstream across the cell membrane to the
cytoplasm of the cell
what parts of the body are insulin dependent?
skeletal muscle and adipose tissue
liver cells
have receptor sites to facilitate uptake of glucose and convert it to glycogen
glucogenesis
forming or producing glucose
, high levels of ketones ...
means insulin isnt being used
type 1 etiology
autoimmune response
body develops antibodies against insulin and/or pancreatic β cells that produce insulin
resulting in not enough insulin to survive
when do type 1 symptoms develop?
as soon as pancreas stops producing insulin
polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia
genetic abnormalities type 2
Insulin resistance
Decreased insulin production by pancreas
Inappropriate hepatic glucose production
type 1 age of onset
More common in young people but can occur at any age
type 1 type of onset
