Diabetes Celia Levesque RN, MSN, CNS-BC, CDE, BC-ADM
Diagnostic for diabetes • FBG > 126, PP > 140 • FBG 100-126, PP 140-199 • FBG 90-100, PP 100-140
Diabetes Management Goals • Prevent or delay complication • Minimize the risk of hypoglycemia • Maintain a healthy weight (BMI < 25) • Improve quality of life AACE. Medical Guidelines for the Management of Diabetes Mellitus. Endocrine Paractice 2002;8 (Suppl 1): 41-82.
The HbA1c goal of ACE • < 7% • < 6% • < 6.5%
DCCT ResultsHbA1c and Relative Risk of Diabetic Complications 15 13 ( “X” times more likely) 11 Eye disease 9 Relative Risk of Complications Kidney disease 7 Nerve damage 5 3 1 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 6.5* HbA1c Adapted from DCCT Research Group: N England Journal of Medicine. 1993;329:977-986 *Endocrine Practice 2002, 8 (supp 1), pg. 7. AACE recommends less than or equal to 6.5 HbA1c.
Pancreas • Digestive enzymes (acini) • Hormones (Islets of Langerhans) • Insulin • Glucagon • Amylin • Somatostatin • Pancreatic polypeptide
Basal: continuous small amount to compensate for liver glucose Bolus: surge for food 1st phase: rapid rise in serum insulin levels inhibits glucagon release and therefore liver glucose release 2nd phase: to cover the food ingested Normal Insulin Secretion
J.L. before insulin Age 3 Weight 15 lbs. December 15, 1922
Type 1 • Genetic link • HLA types DR3 or DR4 increases risk • HLA-DR2 decreases risk • Environmental factors • Most factors unknown. • Viral infection such as enterovirus, rubella • Nutritional factors such as cow's milk in infancy • Autoimmune attack • Auto-antibodies against islet cells (ICA) • Insulin (IAA) • Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD): a protein found in islet cells
Dr. Frederick Grant Banting (1891-1941 and Medical student Charles Herbert Best 1899 - 1978) discovered insulin. Margorie was the first diabetic dog to receive insulin.
J.L. after insulin. Feb 15, 1923 Weight 29 lbs
Before and after pictures of a 1922 patient of Dr. H. Geyelin.
T2DM • 1 out of 3 born in 2000 will develop T2DM • 1 out of 2 Mexican-Americans born in 2000 will develop T2 DM
Obesity in Children • Prevalence in US: 17.1% • Females: 16% (up from 13.8% in 1999) • Males: 18.2% (up from 14% in 1999)
Type 2 DM • Heterogeneous disorder • Variable plasma insulin levels • Hyperglycemia • Peripheral insulin resistance • Assoc with increased cardiovascular risk
Risk of T2DM • Family hx of T2DM • Obesity • Lack of exercise • Exposure to hyperglycemia in utero
Features of Insulin Resistance • Obesity • Hyperlipidemia • Hypertension • Acanthosis Nigricans • Sleep Apnea
The primary problem early in the disease process of T2DM is: • Insulin deficiency • Insulin resistance • Increased central adiposity • Heart disease
Highest risk for DKA • Type 1 diabetes • Type 2 diabetes • Steroid induced diabetes
“… Doctor, I have a Billy Roberts on line two who wants to know how much insulin he needs to take to cover 6 malt balls… 3 chocolate bunnies… 11 marshmallow eggs… oh.. and a whole handful of gummi worms…”
Goal of Meal Planning • To provide adequate energy, protein, essential fats, minerals, trace elements and vitamins for growth and development • Weight management • Stable blood glucose values • Helps reduce need for meds in T2DM • Should eat the same food as recommended for the general population.
Nutrition • Variety of food • Plenty of bread, cereals, vegies & fruit • Limit sucrose to 10-35% of total energy intake • Low fat diet for older children • Watch sodium content • Encourage breast-feeding of babies, at least until six months of age
Nutrition Assessment • Diet history • Anthropometric measurements • Physical activity • Medications • Metabolic Control
Nutrients • Carbohydrates • Proteins • Fats • Vitamins • Minerals • Fiber • Water

Serving SizeGrams of total carbohydrates, multiplied by number of servings = total grams of carbs Total Carbohydrate Includes grams of sugar, sugar alcohol, starch, and dietary fiber. Adapted from Warshaw, H.S., Bolderman,K.M.; ADA, 2001 p 13
MNT benefits DM by: • Helps to reverse long term complications • Improves the quality of life • Reduces HbA1c and decreases the need for medications • Increases life expectancy
