EFFECTS OF ACUTE AND CHRONIC HYPERGLYCAEMIA Class: MED Year 2 Module: Endocrine and Breast Lecturer: Dr. Jeevan Shetty Date: January 2025 LEARNING OUTCOMES ❑ Describe the normal range of blood glucose concentrations. ❑ Recollect the diagnostic criteria for hyperglycaemia and diabetes. ❑ Describe the causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of acute hyperglycaemia, in particular diabetic ketoacidosis. ❑ Describe the causes and symptoms of chronic hyperglycaemia and be able to illustrate its molecular physiology and consequences. ❑ DESCRIBE THE NORMAL RANGE OF BLOOD GLUCOSE CONCENTRATIONS. RECOMMENDED TARGET GLUCOSE RANGES NICE recommended target blood glucose level ranges 2h after the Fasting Blood Before Meals A1C mmol/mol meal Type Glucose Glucose (%) (post prandial) (mmol/L) (mmol/L) (mmol/L) Non-diabetic 4.0 – 5.4 4.0 – 5.9
