Hyperglycemia
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. The way diabetes is managed changes with age. Insulin production decrease because of age-related impairment of pancreatic beta cells. Additionally insulin resistance increase because of the loss of lean tissue and the accumulation of fat, particularly intra-abdominal fat, and the decreased tissue sensitivity to insulin.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. Whether the decreased insulin activity is due to a amount of insulin, the results are the same
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. High blood sugar develops when there is too little insulin or when the body fails to respond properly to the insulin in the blood. High blood sugar emergencies often develop because of some underlying condition that may not be obvious, such as a heart attack, infection, or surgery.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. Careful control is needed to reduce the risk of long term complications. This is theoretically achievable with a combinations of diet, exercises, and weight loss, various diabetic drugs, and insulin use.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. Glucose tolerance progressively declines with age, leading to a high prevalence of type 2 diabetes and post challenge hyperglycemia in the older population. Age-related glucose intolerance in humans is often accompanied by insulin.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. Frequent hunger without other symptoms can also indicate that blood sugar levels are too low. This may occur when people who have diabetes take too much oral hypoglycemic medication or insulin for the amount of food they eat.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. The basic defect in all patients with diabetes is the decreased ability of insulin to induce cells of the body to remove glucose (sugar) from the blood.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. The blood sugar can rise to an unsafe level if: Skipping a dose of pills for diabetes, or skipping a dose of insulin Eating too much food. Feeling a lot of stress. Being sick (such as a severe case of the flu) or having an infection, even if not eating a lot of food.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. If the body doesn't produce enough insulin (which occurs in people with type 1 diabetes and a few people with type 2 diabetes), blood sugar levels may rise. This may cause high blood sugar in the morning before the person eats.
Instructed to patient exercise is good for those with diabetes. Walking, you can even get exercise when you clean house or work in your garden. Exercise is especially good for people with diabetes because exercise helps keep weight down. Exercise helps insulin work better to lower blood sugar, exercise is good for your heart and lungs. Exercise after eating, not before, test your blood sugar before, during, and after exercising. Don't exercise when your blood sugar is over 240, avoid exercise right before you go to sleep, because it could cause low blood sugar during the night.
