Diabetes Mellitus
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.

Pathophysiology
• Chronic disorder of impaired metabolism with
vascular and neurologic complications
• Key feature is elevated blood glucose, called
hyperglycemia
• Blood glucose level normally regulated by insulin, a
hormone produced by beta cells in the islets of
Langerhans located in the pancreas
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
3
Type 1
• Absence of endogenous insulin
• Formerly called juvenile-onset diabetes because it most
commonly occurs in juveniles and young adults
• An autoimmune process, possibly triggered by a viral
infection, destroys beta cells, the development of
insulin antibodies, and the production of islet cell
antibodies (ICAs)
• Affected people require exogenous insulin for the rest
of their lives
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
4
Type 2
• Inadequate endogenous insulin and body’s inability to
properly use insulin
• Beta cells respond inadequately to hyperglycemia;
results in chronically elevated blood glucose
• Continuous high glucose level in the blood
desensitizes the beta cells; they become less
responsive to the elevated glucose
• More common in adults; increasing in children
• Controlled by diet and exercise; may require oral
hypoglycemic agents or exogenous insulin

5
Role of Insulin
• Glucose
•
•
•
•
•
Insulin stimulates active transport of glucose into cells
If insulin absent, glucose remains in the bloodstream
Blood becomes thick, which increases its osmolality
Increased osmolality stimulates the thirst center
Increased fluid does not pass into body tissues; high serum
osmolality retains fluid in the bloodstream
• As blood passes through the kidneys, some glucose
eliminated
• Osmotic force created by glucose draws extra fluid and
electrolytes with it, causing abnormally increased urine volume
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
6
Role of Insulin
• Fatty acids
• Promotes fatty acid synthesis and conversion of fatty acids into
fat, which is stored as adipose tissue
• Also spares fat by inhibiting breakdown of adipose tissue and
mobilization of fat and by inhibiting the conversion of fats to
glucose
• Without adequate insulin, fat stores break down and increased
triglycerides are stored in the liver
• Increased fatty acids in the liver can triple the production of
lipoproteins; promotes atherosclerosis
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
7
Role of Insulin
• Protein
• Enhances protein synthesis in tissues and inhibits the
conversion of protein into glucose
• Amino acids are admitted into cells; enhances rate of protein
formation while preventing protein degradation
• Without adequate insulin, protein storage halts; large amounts
of amino acids dumped into the bloodstream
• High levels of plasma amino acids place people with diabetes
at risk for development of gout
• Changes in protein metabolism lead to extreme weakness and
poor organ functioning
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
8
Etiology
• An autoimmune malfunction may cause
complete destruction of the islets of
Langerhans in the pancreas, creating type 1
diabetes
• Islet cell antibodies are identified in more than
80% of all people with type 1 diabetes at the
time of diagnosis

Acute Emergency Complications
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
22
Acute Hypoglycemia
• Dangerous drop in blood glucose
• Causes
• Taking too much insulin, not eating enough food or not eating
at the right time, an inconsistent pattern of exercise
• Gastroparesis, renal insufficiency, and certain drugs including
aspirin and beta-adrenergic blockers
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
23

anxiety, lightheadedness, hunger, tingling or numbness of the
lips or tongue, and diaphoresis
• Neuroglucopenia: drowsiness, irritability, impaired judgment,
blurred vision, slurred speech, headaches, and mood swings
progressing to disorientation, seizures, and unconsciousness
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
24
Acute Hypoglycemia
• Treatment
• Give patient 10 to 15 g of quick-acting
carbohydrates
• Repeat every 15-30 minutes until blood glucose is
>70 mg/dL for adults, 80 to 100 mg/dL for older
adults and children
• If patient is unable to swallow, an IM or
subcutaneous injection of 1 mg of glucagon or an IV
dose of 50 mL of 50% dextrose should be given as
ordered or per protocol
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
25
Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA)
• Life-threatening emergency caused by a relative or
absolute deficiency of insulin
• Early signs and symptoms
• Anorexia, headache, and fatigue
• As condition progresses, classic symptoms of polydipsia,
polyuria, and polyphagia develop
• If untreated, patient becomes dehydrated, weak, and
lethargic with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, fruity
breath, increased respiratory rate, tachycardia, blurred
vision, and hypothermia
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
26
Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA)
• Late signs
• Air hunger (Kussmaul’s respirations), coma, and
shock
• Death can result without prompt medical care
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
27
Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA)
• Treatment aimed at correction of three main
problems
• Dehydration
• Electrolyte imbalance
• Acidosis
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
28
Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar
Nonketotic Syndrome
• Patient goes into a coma from extremely high glucose
levels (>600 mg/dL)
• There is no evidence of elevated ketones
• Pancreas produces enough insulin to prevent breakdown of
fatty acids and formation of ketones, but not enough to prevent
hyperglycemia
• Persistent hyperglycemia causes osmotic diuresis,
resulting in loss of fluid and electrolytes
• Dehydration and hypernatremia develop
• May be caused by the same factors that trigger
ketoacidosis
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
29
Medical Diagnosis
• One or more of the following criteria on two separate
occasions is considered DM
• Polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia, unexplained weight loss plus
random glucose level >200 mg/dL
• Fasting serum glucose level >126 mg/dL (after at least an 8hour fast)
• Two-hour postprandial glucose level >200 mg/dL during oral
glucose tolerance test (OGTT) under specific guidelines. Test
must use a glucose load of 75 g of anhydrous glucose
dissolved in water
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
30
Medical Diagnosis
• Prediabetes
• Individuals with impaired fasting glucose (IFG)
and/or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT)
• Individuals should receive education on weight
reduction and increasing physical activity
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
31
Medical Diagnosis
• Oral glucose tolerance test
•
•
•
•
Diet of 150 to 300 g carbohydrate for 3 days before test
Night before test, patient fasts after midnight
Morning of test, blood drawn for fasting serum glucose
Patient then given a drink (Glucola) containing 75 g of
carbohydrates and instructed to remain quiet
• Blood drawn at 30 minutes and 1 hour after the ingestion of
glucose. After these two samples, blood is drawn at hourly
intervals until the test is completed
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
32
Medical Treatment
• Nutritional management
• Medical nutrition therapy (MNT) is an important part
of diabetes management; should be included in
diabetes self-management education
• Because of complexity of nutritional management, a
registered dietitian should be part of the diabetes
management team, and the individual with diabetes should
be included in decision making
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
33
Medical Treatment
• Exercise
• Effective adjunct for people with diabetes
• Aids in weight loss, improves cardiovascular
conditioning, improves insulin sensitivity, and
promotes a sense of well-being
• Exercising muscle uses glucose at 20 times the rate
of a muscle at rest and does not require insulin
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
34
Insulin Therapy
• All patients with type 1 disease need insulin injections;
some patients with type 2 disease may eventually need
insulin
• Insulins classified by source and course of action
• Source: human, pork, or beef (beef is being phased
out)
• Course of action: rapid acting, short acting,
intermediate acting, and long acting
• All rapid-acting and short-acting insulins are clear
• The other insulins are cloudy

Insulin Therapy
• Route
• Oral: insulin cannot be given orally because it is rendered
useless in the gastrointestinal tract
• Subcutaneously: all insulins can be given subcutaneously
• Intravenously: ONLY regular insulin can be given intravenously
• Inhalation: a form of insulin that can be taken by inhalation has
recently been approved, but it is not yet widely used
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
37
Insulin Therapy
• Concentrations
• U-100 insulin has 100 units/mL
• Most commonly used
• U-500 insulin has 500 units/mL
• Used only in emergencies and for patients who are
extremely insulin resistant
• U-40 insulin has 40 units/mL
• Not available in the United States
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
38
Insulin Therapy
• Premixed insulin products
• Contain both Regular and NPH insulin
• 70% NPH and 30% Regular insulin
• 50% NPH and 50% Regular insulin
• 75% NPH and 25% Lispro
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
39
Insulin Therapy
• Dosing schedules
• Conventional therapy
• Typically uses a combination of a short-acting and an
intermediate- or long-acting insulin
• Intensive therapy
• To achieve tight control; may require 3 or 4 injections daily
• Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion
• Patient has indwelling subcutaneous catheter connected to
an external portable infusion pump; pump delivers Regular
insulin continuously
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
40
Insulin Therapy
• Insulin mixing
• Two types can be mixed in one syringe to avoid two injections
• Insulin injection
• Site rotation helps prevent lipohypertrophy or lipoatrophy
• Absorption rate varies with different body sites
• American Diabetes Association recommends rotating sites
within one anatomic area rather than moving among all areas
• See Figure 46-3

42
Insulin Therapy
• Insulin pump
• Needle is inserted subcutaneously in an appropriate
part of the anatomy
• Pump is programmed to deliver a steady trickle of
insulin throughout the day and can provide a bolus
of insulin at mealtimes

44
Insulin Therapy
• Intranasal route
• Only 10% of the drug is absorbed through the nasal mucosa,
making it relatively expensive to use
• Nasal irritation is a frequent side effect
• Only Regular insulin is given intranasally
• Insulin catheter
• Indwelling subcutaneous catheters may be placed in the
abdomen to permit repeated insulin injections without repeated
needlesticks
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
45
Oral Hypoglycemic Agents
• If patients with type 2 DM unable to control blood
glucose with nutrition and exercise, physician may
prescribe oral hypoglycemics
• Sulfonylureas (three generations), alpha-glucosidase
inhibitors, biguanides, thiazolidinediones, Dphenylalanines, meglitinides
• Combination oral medications
• ACTOplus met (pioglitazone and metformin), Avandamet
(rosiglitazone and metformin), Avandaryl (rosiglitazone and
glimepiride), Glucovance (glyburide and metformin), Metaglip
(glipizide and metformin)
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
46
Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose
• Allows patients to monitor blood glucose levels
to regulate their diet, exercise, and medication
regimens to remain euglycemic
• Portable electronic glucose meters have
largely replaced other methods of selfmonitoring
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
47
lycosylated Glucose Levels
• Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reflects
glucose levels over the past few months
• Fructosamine levels reflect those over several
weeks
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
48
Complications of Therapy

the wrong time, or exercises inconsistently: glucose levels may
suddenly drop
• Somogyi phenomenon
• Rebound hyperglycemia in response to hypoglycemia
• Dawn phenomenon
• An increase in fasting blood glucose levels between 5 and 9 AM
that is not related to hypoglycemia

Hypoglycemia
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
57
Pathophysiology
• Develops when the blood glucose level falls to
less than 45 to 50 mg/dL
• Symptoms occur at different blood levels
according to individual tolerances and how
rapidly the level falls
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
58
Causes
• Exogenous hypoglycemia
• Results from outside factors acting on the body to
produce a low blood glucose
• Include insulin, oral hypoglycemic agents, alcohol,
or exercise
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
59
Causes
• Endogenous hypoglycemia
• Occurs when internal factors cause an excessive
secretion of insulin or an increase in glucose
metabolism
• These conditions may be related to tumors or
genetics
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
60
Causes
• Functional hypoglycemia
• From a variety of causes, including gastric surgery,
fasting, or malnutrition
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
61
Signs and Symptoms
• Glucose level falls rapidly, causes epinephrine, cortisol,
glucagon, and growth hormone to be secreted in an
attempt to increase glucose levels
• Symptoms: weakness, hunger, diaphoresis, tremors, anxiety,
irritability, headache, pallor, and tachycardia
• A blood glucose level that falls over several hours:
symptoms attributed to lack of essential glucose to
brain tissue
• Symptoms: confusion, weakness, dizziness, blurred or double
vision, seizure, and in severe cases, coma
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
62
Medical Diagnosis
• The diagnosis of hypoglycemia not associated with
diabetes can be based on fasting blood glucose, OGTT,
intravenous glucose tolerance test, and 72-hour
inpatient fasting
• Whipple’s triad
• The presence of symptoms
• Documentation of low blood glucose when symptoms occur
• Improvement of symptoms when blood glucose rises
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
63
Medical Treatment
• In an unconscious patient who has diabetes,
hypoglycemia should be suspected until it is ruled out
• 50 mL of 50% glucose solution should be administered
immediately
• The patient with a milder form of hypoglycemia
• Treated with 15 g carbohydrate
• If the patient’s condition does not improve, another
15 g of carbohydrate should be given after 10 minutes
Elsevier items and derived items © 2007 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
64
Medical Treatment
• Prevention of hypoglycemia by proper food intake
• The diet is directed by the underlying cause
• If overproduction of insulin after carbohydrate ingestion, a lowcarbohydrate, high-protein diet
• Restriction of carbohydrates to no more than 100 g/day is
recommended
• Simple sugars avoided; complex carbohydrates encouraged
• Patients may tolerate smaller, more frequent meals. Alcohol
should be avoided
