Diabetes Update Pennsylvania Association of Developmental Disabilities Nurses Gutman Diabetes Institute Einstein Medical Center, Philadelphia Patricia C. Adams, RN, CDE Gutman Diabetes Institute
Objectives • Distinguish the different types of diabetes • Discuss appropriate administration of insulin • Discuss prevention and treatment of hypoglycemia • Review of ADA recommendations for anti-psychotic drugs and obesity Gutman Diabetes Institute
Diabetes Update • Diabetes - Epidemic Proportions • Glucose Toxicity • 25.8 million Americans (8.3% of population) • 18.8 million have been diagnosed • 7.0 million are unaware they have the disease • Lipid Toxicity http://www.cdc.gov/diabetes/pubsaccessed 3/8/2011 Gutman Diabetes Institute
Diabetes • Areas Requiring Control • Glycemic Control • A1C < 7% (ADA Standards) • < 6.5% (AACE Standards) • Blood Pressure Control • Goal is 130/80 • ACE vs ARB; Diuretics • Lipid Management • Statins Gutman Diabetes Institute
Cardiovascular Risk • Lipids • Total Cholesterol < 200 • HDL > 45 (Men) > 55 (Women) • LDL < 100; <70 (Hx of cardiac disease) • Triglycerides (Tg) < 150 Aspirin (81 – 325) mg daily >21 yrs) Gutman Diabetes Institute
Recommendations:Dyslipidemia/Lipid Management Treatment recommendations and goals • Statin therapy should be added to lifestyle therapy, regardless of baseline lipid levels, for diabetic patients: • with overt CVD (A) / LDL < 70 • without CVD who are >40 years of age and have one or more other CVD risk factors (A) / LDL < 100 ADA. VI. Prevention, Management of Complications. Diabetes Care 2011;34(suppl 1):S29.
Diabetes Update • Type 1 • Approximately 5% • Type 2 • Approximately 95% • Gestational • 7 – 14% of all pregnancies • 5 – 10% have type 2 following delivery • 20 – 50% chance of developing diabetes in the next 5 – 10 years Gutman Diabetes Institute
Diabetes Diabetes > 126 mg/dl < 126 mg/dl Pre-Diabetes > 100 mg/dl < 100 mg/dl Normal 70 mg/dl What is a normal blood glucose level? • A1C > 6.5% • FPG> 126 mg/dl • OGTT > 200 mg/dl (75g glucose load) • RPG > 200 mg/dl with symptoms of hyperglycemia Diabetes Care, Clinical Practice Recommendations, 2011
Criteria for Testing for Diabetes in Asymptomatic Adult Individuals Testing should be considered in all adults who are overweight (BMI ≥25 kg/m2*) and have additional risk factors: • HDL cholesterol level<35 mg/dl (0.90 mmol/l) and/or a triglyceride level >250 mg/dl (2.82 mmol/l) • Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) • A1C ≥5.7%, IGT, or IFG on previous testing • Other clinical conditions associated with insulin resistance (e.g., severe obesity, acanthosis nigricans) • History of CVD *At-risk BMI may be lower in some ethnic groups. ADA. Testing in Asymptomatic Patients. Diabetes Care 2011;34(suppl 1):S14. Table 4.
Diabetes in Severe Mental Illness • 2 – 3 fold increased mortality rate associated with physical illness • Most common cause of death – CVD • More likely to be overweight, smoke, inactive • More likely to have family hx diabetes, • Limited access to primary care, cardiovascular risk screening Gutman Diabetes Institute
ADA Consensus • Baseline monitoring at initiation of antipsychotic medications • Personal/family hx diabetes, obesity, dislipidemia, hypertension, CVD • Calculate BMI • Waist circumference • BP, Fasting blood glucose, Fasting Lipid profile • Interval monitoring • 4, 8, & 12 weeks after initiation of therapy • Weight gain > 5% consider change in therapy Gutman Diabetes Institute
ADA Consensus • Consideration of metabolic risks when starting SGAs • Patient, family, and care giver education • Baseline screening • Regular monitoring • Refer to specialized services, when needed Gutman Diabetes Institute

Initially little insulin production • Evolves into no insulin production • Exogenous insulin required daily • Auto-immune response • Genetic component • 5 - 10% prevalence • Slow, Insidious • 6.5 years to manifest as elevated FBG • Elevated postprandial blood glucose levels • Damage vessel endothelium • Insulin Resistance • Beta Cell Deterioration Type 1 Diabetes Type 2 Diabetes Gutman Diabetes Institute

Terminology: Physiologic Insulin Use AKA “Think like a Pancreas” • Basal • Amount needed to prevent excess gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis • Prandial • Amount needed to cover discrete meals and/or nutritional supplements • Tube Feedings, IV dextrose, TPN Gutman Diabetes Institute
Human Insulins • Regular • NPH • 70/30 Gutman Diabetes Institute
Insulin Analogs • Humalog (Lispro) • Humalog Mix 75/25 • NovoLog (Aspart) • NovoLog Mix 70/30 • Apidra (Glulisine) • Lantus (Glargine) • Levemir (Detemir) Gutman Diabetes Institute
Basal / Bolus Insulin Therapy Novolog u100: _____ units with 1st meal @_____ ______units with 2nd meal @_____ ______units with 3rd meal @_____ Lantus u100 : _____ units in the morning @_____ Sleeping Meal times: Hours of sleep: _____ _____ _____ ______________
Premix(cloudy) Short acting insulin Intermediate acting insulin Insulin type:Human u100 Premix R & NPH Onset (Begins to work) ½ - 1 hour following injection Peak action (Works the strongest) Dual following injection Effective duration following injection Actual maximum duration 10-16 hrs
Insulin Action Times Gutman Diabetes Institute
Insulin Action Times Gutman Diabetes Institute
Insulin and Timing of Meals • 70/30 – 30 minutes prior to meal • Regular – 20 to 30 minutes prior to meal • NPH – 20 to 30 minutes prior to meal • Aspart- 5 – 10 minutes prior to meal • Lispro- 5 – 10 minutes prior to meal • Apidra - 5 – 10 minutes prior to meal Gutman Diabetes Institute

Clinical Pearl Basal insulin You wouldn’t hold the pancreas, so don’t hold the lantus Gutman Diabetes Institute
Clinical Pearl • Without insulin, in an insulin deficient individual, blood glucose will increase passively by as much as 45 mg/dl per hour even in the absence of food. Gutman Diabetes Institute

Glycemic Recommendations for Non-Pregnant Adults with Diabetes (1) *Postprandial glucose measurements should be made 1–2 h after the beginning of the meal, generally peak levels in patients with diabetes. ADA. V. Diabetes Care. Diabetes Care 2011;34(suppl 1):S21. Table 10.
Control Hyperglycemia • Hyperglycemia needs to be controlled. • Any glucose excursion causes endothelial damage • Don’t relax with one good glucose reading • Need to look at trends over 24 – 48 hours • Need basal and prandial insulin coverage • Rare to withhold basal insulin • Insulin sliding scales do not work alone! • Reactive vs proactive Gutman Diabetes Institute
Treating Hypoglycemia • DM medication given too early • DM medication dosage too high • Meals delayed or not eaten • Give DM medication at right time • Advocate for adjustment of medication • Offer food when appropriate Problems Nursing solutions Gutman Diabetes Institute
Hypoglycemia • “Test don’t Guess” • Anything under 70 mg/dl is hypoglycemia • Treat • 16 grams of carbohydrate – “fast acting” • Glucose gel – 15 grams • Glucose Tabs –4 • ½ cup juice or regular soda • Wait 15 minutes, - retest Gutman Diabetes Institute
Hypoglycemia Gutman Diabetes Institute
Medical Nutrition Therapy • No longer a diabetic diet (ADA) • Currently Carb Controlled • Requires Individualization • Need for Consistent Carbohydrates • Some sweets OK • Meals – 4.5to 5 Hours Apart • Divide Protein and Fats Gutman Diabetes Institute
Medical Nutrition Therapy • Consume Fewer Animal Fats • Emphasize Low Fat Dairy Products • Emphasize Monounsaturated Fats • Emphasis upon Fiber • Decrease Use of Sweets • Decrease Use of Alcohol Gutman Diabetes Institute
The Plate Method The Plate Method is an easy to remember technique for meal planning. This method recommends a healthy distribution of carbohydrates, a lower fat intake, and a greater amount of fruits and vegetables. It can be used to eat healthfully, lose weight, and/or manage your diabetes. Fill a quarter of your plate with starch or bread Fill half your plate up with non starchy vegetables Fill a quarter of your plate with protein (choose lean cuts) Source: National Diabetes Education Program To learn more about how meal planning can help prevent or manage your diabetes, contact the Gutman Diabetes Institute, 215-456-6839 or gutmandiabetesinstitute@einstein.edu
