are several studies about negative effects cause by DM, indirect effects to people with diabetic are less quality of life, sexual life, loss a job led to financial burden. After got diabetic patient have to change life style, diet control especially food proportion. Exercise limiting. Many people was suddenly dead because the complication as show as individual. It causes 1 in 20 fatality rate in all diabetic patients and has become a major health problem among population in both developing and…
worldwide diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes (p. 495). If one was to not receive treatment, serious complications can arise such as cardiovascular disease, neuropathy, and retinopathy. Implementing self-care behaviors is exceptionally important for type 2 diabetics, so they can manage and prevent any long-term complications. The JAANP (2013) states that the reason for this study is to “explore the factors related to the self-care behaviors of patients with type 2 diabetes” (p. 495). Self-care is…
Type 2 Diabetes and patient teaching Teaching people about the causes, symptoms, treatments and preventive measure of type 2 diabetes. Hopefully by getting the information out there we can lower the people effected by diabetes of all kinds. The most common is type 2. Diabetes affects 27 million people in America. 1/3 of the people don’t even know they have it. Native Americans, African Americans, Hispanics, and Asian Americans have a higher risk in America. In adults 1 in 10 people suffer…
α-Glucosidase inhibitors are saccharides that act as competitive inhibitors of enzymes needed to digest carbohydrates specifically α-glucosidase enzymes in the brush border of the small intestine. This inhibits the cleaving of di and oligosaccharides to monosaccharides, such as glucose prior to absorption. This delays the absorption of glucose and alters the release of glucose dependent intestinal hormones. Acrabose, Migltol (10) and Voglibases (11) have been extensively studied for their…
management of diabetes and hypertension. As we know, diabetes is one of the leading cause of renal disease, it causes blood vessel and nerve damage leading to the involvement of many organs including the kidneys. In this scenario, the patient is diabetic and hypertensive. The first and most important task as a nurse is to assess the patient on his knowledge about his disease. If the patient can handle many of his symptoms, he can prevent or slow the progression of his disease. Self management…
taste buds and its relatively cheap. We begin feasting on junk food at an early age in America and most of us don’t realize the harm we are doing to our bodies until it’s too late. Americans should try their best to eliminate fast food from their diets because it can cause an array of expensive health issues, such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Eating junk food causes obesity. What is obesity? Obesity is when your body mass index, how much you weigh compared to how tall you are, is…
leading cause of death in diabetics are stroke and heart disease. Therefore, it is important to reduce the risk of these conditions through medical efforts and necessary changes in lifestyle. Type 2 diabetes increases the risk factors for a variety of other medical conditions, including: neuropathy, heart disease, stroke, and more. The most effective way to prevent these complications is through controlling blood sugar levels, and managing the risk factors through diet and exercise. Heart…
lot of time with the patient than any other member of the health care team. Nurses are encouraged to raise their concern and come up with evidence-based practices that would support interventions and improve patient outcomes. The implementation of a diet and exercise educational program can significantly improve the plight of the patient, reduce hospital visits due to complications, decrease the amount of time missed from work, and so on. Although this intervention has many benefits, there are…
insulin and how the cells bind to the insulin, this causes a person’s response to glucose to change. The glucose levels in diabetics are much higher than the average person due to the lack of sensitivity that they have to insulin. In this experiment, we tested the hypothesis that people who are diabetic will have a higher blood glucose concentration and light absorbance than non-diabetics as tested by a spectrometer test. The absorbency rate was determined by a spectrometer test which was set to…
Inflammation is the underlying reasons of diabetes, making your cells overlook insulin & also making your personal pancreas shrivel up & then die. The single method to get inflammation totaly your control is to get rid of the toxic meals from your diet. Once you eat the anti-inflammatory foods, you can decrease the signs of your diabetes problem.
