<p>Basal-Bolus Insulin Regimen in Type 1 Diabetes = 1. Calculate TDD ($0.5$ units/kg/day, using TBW) 2. Divide the TDD into $50%$ basal insulin and $50%$ bolus (rapid-acting) insulin 3. Divide the bolus insulin evenly among 3 meals (or allocate more insulin for larger meals and less for smaller meals) Starting a Regimen with NPH and Regular Insulin = 1. Calculate the TDD (same as with basal-bolus regimens) 2. % of the TDD is given as NPH and % is given as regular insulin Starting Insulin in Type 2 Diabetes = If an injectable medication is needed to reduce the AlC in T2D, a GLP-1 receptor agonist is preferred and should be considered first. If the patient is already on a GLP-1 agonist (or a GLP-1 agonist is not appropriate), insulin should be started. An exception is when using insulin initially to treat very high BG at diagnosis (AlC &gt; 10% or BG &gt; 300 mg/dL) or if symptoms of catabolism are present (e.g., DKA) Treatment with an Insulin Pump = All people with TlD require insulin. Most are treated with an insulin pump or multiple daily injections of insulin designed to mimic the normal pattern of insulin secretion. Rapid-acting injectable insulins and long-acting basal insulins are preferred (over short- and intermediate-acting insulins), because they have less hypoglycemia risk and better mimic the physiologic pattern of insulin made by the body. Pumps can provide excellent BG control and require less daily insulin injections.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Total Daily Dose (TDD) = The total amount of insulin needed per day, usually expressed in units Basal Insulin = Insulin that is released in small amounts continuously to provide a steady level of insulin between meals and during sleep Bolus Insulin = Insulin that is used to cover the rise in blood sugar from eating Insulin-to-Carbohydrate Ratio (ICR) = The amount of insulin needed to cover a certain amount of carbohydrates in a meal</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Regular Insulin = Short-acting insulin that is typically taken just before or with meals to control the rise in blood sugar from eating NPH Insulin = Intermediate-acting insulin that starts to work within 1 to 3 hours after injection and peaks in 8 to 12 hours Rapid-Acting Insulin = Fast-acting insulin that starts to work within 15 minutes and peaks in 1 to 2 hours Basal Insulin = Long-acting insulin that is typically taken once or twice a day to provide a steady level of insulin between meals and during sleep</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Insulin Pump = A device that delivers rapid-acting insulin by two complementary methods: continuous and bolus dosing Basal-Bolus Insulin Regimen = A treatment plan that involves taking a long-acting insulin to provide a steady level of insulin between meals and a rapid-acting insulin to cover the rise in blood sugar from eating NPH and Regular Insulin Regimen = A treatment plan that is not preferred due to the insulins' inability to mimic the natural insulin release from the pancreas as well as basal and rapid-acting insulin combinations GLP-1 Receptor Agonist = An injectable medication that is preferred and should be considered first if an injectable medication is needed to reduce the AlC in Type 2 Diabetes</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The addition of lnvokana (canagliflozin) to CS's medication regimen is associated with her symptoms. Lnvokeana decreases blood glucose by excreting it in the urine, which can result in the excretion of water as well, leading to dehydration. Additionally, the use of diuretics and antihypertensive medications could be contributing to the problem due to additive effects.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>CS is at risk for acute kidney injury. It is recommended to evaluate for elevated BUN (blood urea nitrogen), SCr (serum creatinine), and eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate).
