Results are not enough insulin to survive. Patients take exogenous insulin to compensate. Most insulin receptors are located on skeletal muscle, fat, and liver cells. Rapid Onset of symptoms: Sudden weight loss, weakness and fatigue. Polydipsia >12L (excessive thirst), polyuria, and polyphagia. Hyperglycemia: Plasma glucose level >200 mg/dL of higher o Polyphagia- increased hungry o Polydipsia- excessive thirst o Polyuria- excessive urine output o Acetone breath o Nausea, fatigue, and blurred vision o Un-explained weight loss o Fasting plasma glucose level 110-126 mg/dL 1.

Hyperglycemic crisis of a random test of at least 200 and higher mg/dL Fructosamine reflects glycemia in previous 1-3 weeks Management for hypoglycemia (below 70 mg/dl) and hyperglycemia. Control emotional and physical stress that can increase blood glucose. Insulin administration: Goal is to achieve a glucose level of 80 to 130 mg/dL before meals Footcare and dental hygiene: encourage daily brushing and flossing in addition to regular visits to the dentist.

Encourage patients to check blood glucose at least every 4 hours during times of illness. Acutely ill patients with type 1 diabetes whose blood glucose value is greater than 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L) should also check urine for ketones every 3 to 4 hours Teach patients to report glucose levels exceeding 300 mg/dL for twice in a row or the presence of moderate to high urine ketone levels to the HCP. Maintain normal diet if able: supplementing food intake with carbohydrate-containing fluids, such as low-sodium soups, juices, and regular sugar-sweetened decaffeinated soft drinks.
