SN instructed patient and caregiver on how the kidneys play an important role in the body: they filter the blood, removing waste products and excess salt and water. If the kidneys become diseased, they falter in their task, leaving the blood polluted.People with diabetes often focus on keeping their blood sugar levels in the right ranges. And while it is important to control blood sugar, it turns out that controlling blood pressure is at least as important. That's because high
blood sugar and high
blood pressure work in concert to damage the blood vessels and organ systems.
Patient was instructed on how daily routine can affect the blood sugar levels. Consistency: consistency from day to day in the time and amount of food eaten. By controlling these factors, it is possible to better control when the sugar rises and even how high
it rises.
Patient was instructed on how lifestyle and daily routine can affect blood sugar levels. Coordinating the meals with the medications can be a fine balance. Too little insulin in comparison to the medication may result in very low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Too much food may cause the blood sugar to climb too high
(hyperglycemia).
