Diabetes Insipidus s/sx, complications, treatmeant, lab values

DISEASE OF THE POSTERIOR PIT. GLAND Cause: hyposecretion of ADH from the posterior pituitary gland and kidneys fail to reabsorb water leading to excessive water loss 3 types of DI: central, nephrogenic, primary DI Central: insufficient secretion of ADH from CNS (caused by brain tumor, surgical removal of pit or hypothalamus, closed head trauma Nephrogenic: Kidneys not responding to ADH even when levels are normal Primary DI: drinking too much water S/sx: HYPER-osmolarity, excess diluted urine, polydipsia, dehydration, decreased skin turgor, fatigue, headache, hypotension Lab values: low urine specific gravity below 1.005 Normal specific gravity 1.010-1.025 low urine osmo <100mOsm/kg Hypernatremia >145 mg/dL High serum osmo >295 mOsm/kg Polyuria 2-20L Treatment: For central DI: Desmopressin (ADH), antidiruetics, IV fluid and hormone replacement (analog to ADH) For nephrogenic DI: low salt diet, thiazide diuretics (sodium and water loss) Nursing consideration: strict I/O's, daily weights, watch for s/sx of hypernatremia (N/V, headache, seizure), monitor specific gravity

SIADH s/sx, complications, treatmeant, lab values

DISEASE OF THE POSTERIOR PIT. GLAND Causes: Too much ADH causing water retention. most common cause is from small cell lung cancer S/sx: hyponatremia, hypo-osmotic, increased GFR, concentrated urine, decreased urine output, fluid overload in lungs, edema Complication: severe hyponatremia causing cerebral edema and irreversible neurological damage Serum Na <115 --> neurological issues and seizures Treatment: fluid restriction if hyponatremia is mild, correct hyponatremia with hypertonic solutions, lasix if there is no hyponatremia, Stadol (ADH inhibitor), Demeclocycline (chronic SIADH), Conivaptan (ADH receptor antagonist) Nursing consideration: seizure precautions, fluid restriction, monitor I/O's, daily weights Lab values: sodium: less than 135 urine osm: greater than 100 blood serum osm: less than 280 specific gravitiy: greater than 1.025

Difference between DKA and HHS

DKA: HYPERGLYCEMIA - can occur in Type 1 and Type 2 but is more common in type 1. - Cause: Physiologic stress or infection - Volume depletion --> HYPOTENSION - Onset: rapid < 24hours - Glucose level >250 - pH 7.35 - Ketone: present - BUN and Creatine increases - Serum Osmolality 300-350 d/t fluid shifting and dehydration HHS: SEVERE HYPERGLYCEMIA - can occur in Type 1 and Type 2 but is more common in type 2. - Cause: Physiologic stress, UTI, found in older adults - Profound volume depletion - Onset: slower - Glucose level >600 - pH: Normal - Ketone: absent - BUN and Creatine increases - Serum Osmolality >350.

DMI vs DMII

DM1: - Body does not make enough insulin d/t absent endogenous insulin - AKA juvenile onset diabetes or insulin dependent - 5-10% of diabetics - 80-90% B cell destruction before s/sx - S/SX: 3 p's and glycosuria (glucose in blood) DM2: - Inadequate amounts of insulin, tissue resistance or overproduction by liver - 90-95% diabetics - risk factors: family genetics, obesity, increasing age, certain ethnic groups - Hyperglycemia may occur without being detected - S/SX: 3p's

Know the different forms of rapid-acting, fast-acting, intermediate and long-acting insulins onset

Doesnt matter when you give the patient long acting insulin Give rapid or short during meal time

HHS s/sx and treatment

s/sx: - Neurological: somnolence, coma, seizures, hemiparesis (one sided weakness), aphasia (loss of ability to express or understand speech) Tx: - LARGE volumes of fluid replacement with NS - Insulin infusion - Monitor signs of FLUID OVERLOAD like pulmonary edema (SOB, increased oxygen demand, dyspnea, orthopnea, anxiety, pink frothy sputum) - monitor cardiac and renal function - electrolyte replacement

hypoglycemia - Know the signs and symptoms and management (when to use PO vs IV vs glucagon to treat low BG)

s/sx: - 3 p's management

Hyperglycemia signs and symptoms and management (when to use PO vs IV vs glucagon to treat low BG)

s/sx: - 3 p's management:

DKA s/sx and treatment

s/sx: - 3 p's hyperglycemia - CORRECT dehydration --> poor skin turgor/dry mucosa, tachycardia, HYPOTENSION - neuro manifestation --> lethary, weakness, confusion - GI --> abd pain, anorexia, vomiting - Respiratory: Kussmaul respiration (rapid deep breathing with pursed kissed lips in response to acidosis, acetone breath Treatment: - Fix dehydration with fluid replacement. Start with NS then when BP is stable, give IVF with dextrose to prevent HYPOglycemia - IV insulin, lower BG SLOWLY to prevent cerebral edema - Electrolyte imbalance and check potassium

Diabetes teaching on Storage of insulin

- Don't share the same vials with patients - Insulin vials and pens can be kept at room temp up to 4 weeks as long as its not below 0 degrees and above 86 degrees. - Avoid sun exposure - Store insulin syringe tip up to prevent clumping at tip - Prefilled combination insulin syringes stable only up to 1 week when stored in the refrigerator (some refilled combo insulins not recommended) -

Know the considerations of diabetes slide

- If exercising, DO NOT inject in the thigh d/t rapid absorption leading to hypoglycemia - Assess insulin administrations barriers like neuropathies or visual/motor deficits - When injecting prefilled insulin syringe, gently roll in palm 10-20x to warm insulin and resuspend particles - alcohol swabs no necessary at home

Hypoglycemic unawareness

- No warning signs/symptoms until glucose level critically low - Related to autonomic neuropathy and lack of counterregulatory hormones - Patients at risk should keep blood glucose levels somewhat higher - Especially seen in long standing DM1 or patients on beta blockers d/t regulated HR - Doesn't happen to newly diagnosed diabetic patients

Diabetes teaching on Administration

- Subcutaneous injection - regular insulin may be given IV - Can't be taken orally - Don't give into a muscle as it is absorbed too rapidly - Absorption is fastest from the abdomen, followed by arm , thigh and buttock - Abdomen is the preferred site - Waste two units to prime the needle - Do not inject in site that will be exercised - Rotate sites - IV insulin given for DKA, post op, or hyperkalemia - Give bolus D50 for hyperkalemia patient with no diabetes first, then IV insulin Watch for hypoglycemia, lipodystrophy, allergic reaction

Thyrotoxicosis/thyroid storm signs and symptoms, complications and treatments

ACUTE and LIFE-THREATENING Patho: uncontrolled hyperthyroidism, caused by too much thyroxine, may progress to the destruction of thyroid tissue leading to hypothyroidism.

What is Dawn phenomenon

Hyperglycemia upon awakening Patho: d/t 2 counterregulatory hormones (growth hormone and cortisol) GH and cortisol oppose insulin causing glucose to rise Affects most diabetics but most severe with adolescence and young adults Check early morning BG to determine if Dawn phenomenon vs Somogyi effect NO HYPOGLYCEMIA IN EARLY MORNING as seen in Somogyi effect Treatment: increase insulin dose or adjust administration time from dinner to before bedtime. Could switch meds to include long acting insulin

What is the Somogyi effect? risk? treatment?

Hypoglycemia early morning (2am-4am) and rebound hyperglycemia upon waking up Patho: Due to too much evening insulin causing counterregulatory hormones (epinephrine, GH, cortisol, glucagon) release which stimulate lipolysis, gluconeogenesis, glycogenolysis --> hypergylcemia Risk: Physician or nurse may give more insulin dose during morning check --> hypoglycemia How to check for suspected Somogyi effect: - patient c/o headache, night sweats, or nightmares upon wakening - check blood sugars 5x a time a day - Reduce insulin in the evening - evening snack
