analysis of glucose levels in blood

analysis of glucose levels from blood samples oksalated, that blood has been mixed with oxalic acid as an anti-coagulant. Other anti-coagulants used as an anti yangd apat koagualan is EDTA or heparin. In the determination of blood glucose levels, a protein that is also contained in the blood must be precipitated or denatured first. After the process of blood before undergoing a process of heating and the addition of reagents and reagent Cu alkanis fosfomolibdat to give a blue color varies depending on the concentration of the molecules. color variation is then measured with a spectrophotometer absorbannya formed to determine the concentration. determination is quite simple, namely by using a calibration curve of absorbance of Cu alkanis measurable.

In addition BaOH2 little clot of blood samples. BaOH2 used must be in a fresh state before the solution reacts with the surrounding air and form a white layer. BaOH2 addition of this function is as an alkaline conditions and also precipitate the iron ions in the blood. One of the precipitated iron ions are iron ions in hemoglobin. Iron ions are converted into molecules of Fe (OH) 2 form a red precipitate. In the administration of ZnSO4 the red sediment samples terkoagulasi become more and more and more pale. The addition of ZnSO4 serves to precipitate proteins and also mendenaturasi perfectly. Because the weight of the proteins that leih of glucose specific gravity that will subsequently be analyzed then separation by centrifugation. In this process the supernatant formed a more translucent red and brownish precipitate proteins. Deposition is intended for memisakhan protein from glucose because it would interfere with measurements.

Determination of levels is then performed by spectrophotometry. To measure the absorbance then added Cu alkanis molybdate and arsenic. Absorbance is proportional to the glucose concentration to be measured. The more intense blue color of the solution, the greater the concentration of glucose contained.

Glucose levels that are known this can help us predict metabolismeme that may occur in cells with the sugar content is available. L If the content of a large excess of glucose in the body will experience the glucose catabolism of the enzymatic reaction to produce energy. However, if the glucose content is below the minimum threshold, then the pyruvic acid resulting from the process may undergo a process of enzymatic catabolism in anabolism via gluconeogenesis to synthesize glucose and normal glucose levels meet in the blood (serum or blood plasma salam) is 65-110 mg / dL ( 3.6 to 6.1 mmol / L),

Pathophysiology of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

REJEKINE. Insulin resistance means that body cells do not respond appropriately when insulin is present. Unlike type 1 diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance is generally "post-receptor", which means it is a problem with the cells that respond to insulin rather than a problem with insulin production.

Other important contributing factors:

increase in hepatic glucose production (eg, from glycogen -> glucose conversion), especially at inappropriate times (a common cause is insane levels of insulin, such that control levels of these functions in liver cells)
decrease in insulin-mediated glucose transport in (primarily) muscle and adipose tissues (receptor and post-receptor defects)
beta-cell dysfunction-loss of early phase insulin release in response to hyperglycemic stimuli
This is a more complex problem than type 1, but sometimes it is easier to treat, especially in the early years when insulin is often still produced internally. Type 2 may go unnoticed for years before diagnosis, since symptoms are usually mild (eg, no ketoacidosis, coma, etc.) and can be sporadic. However, severe complications can result from not properly managed type 2 diabetes, including renal failure, erectile dysfunction, blindness, slow healing wounds (including surgical incisions), and arterial disease, including coronary artery disease. Onset of type 2 has been most common in middle age and old age, although it became more commonly seen in adolescents and young adults due to the increase of child obesity and inactivity. This type of diabetes called MODY increasingly seen in adolescents, but is classified as diabetes due to specific causes and not as type 2 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is unknown etiology (ie, origin). Diabetes mellitus with a known etiology, such as other secondary diseases, known gene defects, trauma or surgery, or the effects of the drug, more appropriately called secondary diabetes mellitus or diabetes due to specific causes. Examples include diabetes mellitus as MODY or caused by hemochromatosis, pancreatic deficiency, or certain drugs (eg, long-term use of steroids).

According to the CDC, approximately 23,613,000 people in the United States, or 8% of the population, have diabetes. Total prevalence of diabetes increased 13.5% from 2005-2007. It is estimated that only 24% of undiagnosed diabetes now, down from 30% expected in 2005 and from 50% previously estimated at ca 1995.

Approximately 90-95% of all North American cases of type 2 diabetes, and about 20% of the population over age 65 have type 2 diabetes mellitus. The fraction of type 2 diabetics in other parts of the world varies substantially, almost certainly for environmental and lifestyle reasons, though this is not known in detail. Diabetes affects more than 150 million people worldwide and this number is expected to double by 2025 .. Approximately 55 percent of type 2 are obese-chronic obesity causes increased insulin resistance that can develop into diabetes, most likely because adipose tissue (especially in the abdomen around internal organs) is the source (currently identified) of the chemical signal several other tissues (hormones and cytokines ). Other studies have shown that type 2 diabetes causes obesity as a result of changes in cell metabolism and behavior of other officers crazy on insulin resistance. However, genetics plays a relatively minor role in the widespread occurrence of type 2 diabetes. It can be logically inferred from the large increase in the occurrence of type 2 diabetes who have correlated with significant changes in western lifestyles.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is often associated with obesity, hypertension, high cholesterol (combined hyperlipidemia), and with the condition often called metabolic syndrome (also known as Syndrome X, Reavan syndrome, or CHAOS). Secondary causes of type 2 diabetes mellitus are: acromegaly, Cushing's syndrome, thyrotoxicosis, pheochromocytoma, chronic pancreatitis, and cancer drugs.

Drug-induced hyperglycemia:

Atypical antipsychotics - Alter the characteristics of receptor binding, leading to increased insulin resistance.
Beta-blockers - inhibits insulin secretion.
Calcium channel blockers - inhibits insulin secretion by interfering with the release of cytosolic calcium.
Corticosteroids - The cause of peripheral insulin resistance and gluconeogensis.
Fluoroquinolones - Inhibit insulin secretion by blocking ATP-sensitive potassium channels.
Naicin - They cause increased insulin resistance due to increased mobilization of free fatty acids.
Phenothiazines - inhibits insulin secretion.
Protease Inhibitor - Inhibiting the conversion of proinsulin to insulin.
Thiazide diuretic - inhibits secretion of insulin due to hypokalemia. They also lead to increased insulin resistance due to increased mobilization of free fatty acids.
Additional factors found to increase risk of type 2 diabetes include aging, high-fat diets and less active lifestyle ..

Type of Diabetes Mellitus

Diabetes mellitus There are two types namely:

1. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (IDDM: Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus), tioe is highly dependent diabetes with insulin.

In this second type there is damage cells in the pancreas can not produce insulin so again, as a result the cells can not absorb glucose from the blood.

Type 1 affects many young people are under the age of 30 years and most often begins in adolescence between the ages of 10-13 years. Type 1 is usually treated by administering insulin injections.

2. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (NIDDM: Non Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus), this type is not dependent diabetes with insulin.

because of the aging process and lifestyle and poor diet are many sufferers of this type has decreased function of the cells in the pancreas so that insulin produced reduced amounts.

In general, this type begins in adults over the age of 40 years with a greater incidence in overweight people (overweight). Type 2 begins with minor complaints that are often not recognized until symptoms advanced stage, even until complications occur. Therefore if there are symptoms of diabetes, immediately consult a doctor.

explanation of Gestational Diabetes

Gestational Diabetes or Gestational Diabetes mellitus is a type of diabetes experienced by women during pregnancy the woman is mangalami, this is the show with high glucose levels in blood during pregnancy.
Gestational Diabetes Early symptoms commonly found after examination of pregnancy. Infants born to mothers with gestational diabetes increases the risk of serious and dangerous problems, such as babies born with excess weight, low blood sugar, and liver disease.

Women who suffer from gestational diabetes are at higher risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (or latent autoimmune diabetes / Type 1, but type 1 is very rarely experienced) after pregnancy, while the children are born, will be very vulnerable to the risk of obesity in the development children, with most likely be exposed to risk of type 2 diabetes as an adult.
The good news is that treatment of gestational diabetes can be done, and usually disappear after pregnancy. You can start treatment early to reduce the risk to you and your baby. Care you can do is control / check the sugar levels regularly, diet, exercise, and other drugs

Do a healthy diet and strict

A dietitian or physician who is an expert can help you to make the right diet plan and healthy. diet that you do have to include lots of fresh fruits, vegetables, and similar grains. intake of calories from fat should be less than 30%.

Perform regular exercise

Exercise or Sports. Exercise can help keep your body weight during pregnancy, and helps regulate your blood sugar. physical activity such as walking or swimming are good examples. Ask your doctor what type of exercise is safe for you. Try to stay active during pregnancy, but remember! do not overdo it.

Checking blood sugar levels periodically or regularly

Checking blood sugar levels. The doctor will perform blood tests regularly to see if exercise and diet plan that you do can keep blood sugar levels under control. You may need to have a blood sugar checker tools at home to check blood sugar several times a day. In some cases, you may need to take insulin medication. No effect of insulin into the body of the baby and not harmful to your baby. but you need to consult further with your doctor about the use of insulin.

It is important to remember that the risk for developing type 2 diabetes will continue. You can reduce this risk by continuing to make healthy diet and exercise program that you have done during pregnancy. Ask your doctor, What is a reasonable target weight for you. If you are overweight, losing only 5-7% of your body weight, can reduce the risk of diabetes in the future.
Gestational diabetes is alarming and needs to be taken seriously, but together with your doctor, dietitian, you can control your blood sugar and have a healthy pregnancy.

Classification of Diabetes Mellitus

Rejekine. is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by increased levels of glucose in the blood or hyperglycemia rapidly and suddenly.
Melllitus Diabetes is a collection of symptoms that arise in a person caused by the presence of elevated levels of sugar (glucose) in the blood caused by a deficiency of insulin both absolute and relative
Classification of Diabetes Mellitus

Classification of diabetes mellitus as follows:

Type I: insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM)
Type II: Diabetes mellitus is insulin dependent (NIDDM)
Diabetes mellitus is associated with other conditions or syndromes
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM)
Etiology of Diabetes Mellitus

Based on the clustering of diabetes is divided into two types namely:

Diabetes type I:

a. Genetic factors
Diabetics do not inherit type I diabetes itself, but inherit a genetic predisposition or tendency toward the occurrence of diabetes mellitus type I. Genetic predisposition is found in individuals who have HLA antigen type.
b. Immunological Factors
The existence of an autoimmune response in which antibodies directed an abnormal response to normal tissue reacts to the body in a way that considers the network as if they were foreign tissue. Ie autoantibodies against islet cells of Langerhans and endogenous insulin.
c. Environmental factors
Viruses or certain toxins can trigger autoimmune process that causes destruction selbeta.

Diabetes Type II

The exact mechanism that causes insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion in type II diabetes is still unknown. Genetic factors play a role in the process of insulin resistance.
Risk factors:
a. Age (insulin resistance tends to increase in age above 65 years)
b. Obesity
c. Family history
Pathophysiology / Pathways Diabetes Mellitus

Pathophysiology of DM
Signs and Symptoms of Diabetes Mellitus

A common complaint of patients DM like polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia in DM is generally no. Instead the patient is often disturbing complaints from complications of chronic degenerative blood vessels and nerves. In the elderly there is a change in the pathophysiology of DM due to the aging process, so that the clinical picture varies from asymptomatic cases to cases with extensive complications. A recurring complaint is the presence of impaired vision due to cataracts, tingling in the limbs and muscle weakness (peripheral neuropathy) and injuries to the legs which are difficult to recover with treatment prevalent.

According Supartondo, the symptoms caused by diabetes mellitus in the elderly are often found are:

1. Cataract
2. Glaucoma
3. Retinopathy
4. Itching around the body
5. Pruritus Vulvae
6. Bacterial infections of skin
7. Fungal infections in the skin
8. Dermatopati
9. Peripheral neuropathy
10. Visceral neuropathy
11. Amiotropi
12. Neurotrophic ulcer
13. Kidney disease
14. Peripheral vascular disease
15. Coronary Disease
16. Cerebral vascular disease
17. Hypertension

Osmotic diuresis due to glucosuria delayed due to high renal threshold, and can occur with nocturia complaints of sleep disturbance, or even urinary incontinence. Feelings of thirst in elderly diabetic patients are less felt, as a result they do not respond adequately to the dehydration. Because it does not happen polydipsia or just happened at an advanced stage.
The disease is initially mild and there was the usual course in elderly patients with DM can change suddenly, if the patient has an acute infection. Deficiency of insulin which had now become relative and absolute state of ketoacidosis occur with typical symptoms of hyperventilation and dehydration, decreased consciousness with hyperglycemia, dehydration and ketonemia. Symptoms usually occur in hypoglycemia such as hunger, yawning and sweating a lot is generally not present in elderly DM. Usually appears manifest as sudden headache and confusion.
Vegetative reactions in the elderly may disappear. While the symptoms are confusion and coma of cerebral metabolic disturbances appear more clearly.
Examination Support Diabetes Mellitus
Blood glucose during

check GDS
Fasting blood glucose levels
Glucose tolerance test
Blood levels during fasting as a standard filter and the diagnosis of DM (mg / dl)

WHO diagnostic criteria for diabetes mellitus at least 2 times the examination:
1. When plasma glucose> 200 mg / dl (11.1 mmol / L)
2. Fasting plasma glucose> 140 mg / dl (7.8 mmol / L)
3. Plasma glucose from samples taken 2 hours later after consuming 75 g carbohydrate (2-hour post-prandial (pp)> 200 mg / dl
Management of Diabetes Mellitus
The main goal of therapy of diabetes mellitus is trying to normalize the activity of insulin and blood glucose levels in an attempt to reduce vascular complications, and neuropathy. Therapeutic purposes in any type of diabetes is to achieve normal blood glucose levels.
There are 5 components in the management of diabetes:
1. Diet
2. Exercise
3. Monitoring
4. Therapy (if needed)
5. Education

Nursing Assessment of Diabetes Mellitus
Family Health History
Are there families who suffer from diseases such as client?

Complete Definition of Diabetes Mellitus

Rejekine. Common understanding of diabetes mellitus is a disease or medical disorder characterized by increased blood sugar levels quickly. High levels of sugar because it is less the maximum utilization of sugar by the body as an energy source because of the lack of the hormone insulin produced by the pancreas or non-functioning of the hormone insulin to absorb sugar maximally therefore the disease is also commonly referred to or defined as a disease of blood sugar

Diabetes mellitus, commonly known as sugar diabetes or disease can be divided into 3 types of diseases, namely:

  1. Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
  2. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
  3. Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

In normal people, the content of carbohydrates in the form of starchy foods when consumed is converted into glucose in the digestive tract, with the help of insulin glucose will then be carried by the blood throughout the body and enter into cells to be used as an energy source the body.

In patients with diabetes mellitus or sugar can not enter the cells difficult. this is caused by the pancreas gland produces less insulin than is needed or it could be caused by decreased activity of insulin receptors so that cells can not respond well to insulin, although insulin sufficiency so that increased blood glucose levels in

7 Symptoms of Diabetes mellitus

REJEKINE. Diabetes mellitus or diabetes or blood sugar is a condition in which the body can not regulate or control the content of sugar in the blood so that the glucose or sugar which is usually supplied to the cells of the body as an energy source instead scattered body in the bloodstream, even go wasted in the the urine. Arrangement of blood sugar by the body is done with the help of the hormone insulin from the pancreas.

Diabetes mellitus is composed of two kinds:

Diabetes Type 1 is because the body does not produce insulin, so patients must be injected insulin daily to control blood sugar levels. Type 1 diabetes occurs in children and adolescents and their development is rapid.

In type 2 diabetes : The pancreas produces insulin, but the body's cells do not respond normally. This type of diabetes is usually associated with obesity and some cases of pregnancy as well as a new outbreak of the age of 40 years.
High blood sugar levels will eventually cause damage to blood vessels and nerves that lead to impaired function of the eyes, kidneys and nerves as well as increase the risk of heart attack, stroke and impotence.

Symptoms or signs of diabetes
In type 2 diabetes, blood sugar control can be done through changes in lifestyle and diet. According to various studies, the changes are shown to effectively reduce the risk of diabetes. Therefore, it is very important for you to realize when diabetes already exists within you. Approximately 8.6% of Indonesia's population according to the WHO diabetes, unfortunately many do not realize until the case becomes chronic.
Someone said to suffer from diabetes when blood sugar levels above 126 mg / dl (fasting) or 200 mg / dl (not fasting). However, the most visible symptoms of new onset diabetes when blood sugar is above 270 mg / dl. Do not rely on symptoms to know the presence of diabetes. The only accurate way to find out is to test blood and urine.

Symptoms or signs of diabetes that commonly occur are:
Dehydration
Constant thirst
Increased frequency of urination
Fatigue
Weight loss
Impaired vision
Healing old wounds
if you have the above then you should consult a doctor as quickly.

an easy way to know the cause of diabetes mellitus

REJEKINE.diabetes is usually found in densely populated areas like cities. some people think diabetes is a hereditary disease but it is not entirely true because of the number of people with diabetes is very little recorded because it is caused by heredity, the biggest risk factors of this disease is due to diet and bad lifestyle or unhealthy.
diabetes disease generally caused by the consumption of foods that are not well controlled or as a side effect of the use of certain chemical drugs.

here are some factors that could cause a person to be at risk for diabetes mellitus attack:
  1. Heredity
  2. Overweight / obesity usually occurs at age 40 years
  3. High blood pressure
  4. Figures Triglycerid (a type of fat molecule) High
  5. High cholesterol levels
  6. Modern lifestyle that tends to consume the instant food
  7. Smoking and Stress
  8. Too much consumption of carbohydrates
  9. Damage to the pancreas cells

The characteristics & symptoms of diabetes diabetes

Disorders of carbohydrate metabolism causes the body lacks energy, which is why people with diabetes mellitus generally look weak, weak and unfit.

general symptoms that arise for people with diabetes are:

  • Many of urine (polyuria), especially at night
  • Easy Haus and lots of drinking (polydipsia)
  • Easy hungry and a lot of eating (polyphagia)
  • Easily exhausted and often sleepy
  • Blurred vision
  • Dizziness and nausea
  • Impaired motor coordination of the limbs
  • Weight loss continues
  • Frequent tingling and itching on the hands and feet

terms of the above is an effect of high blood sugar levels that will affect the kidneys produce urine in excessive amounts to dilute the glucose, so people often urinate in significant amounts (polyuria) and polyuria result of this the patient felt the thirst Excessive drinking so much (polidipsi). A large number of calories lost into the urine, patients experience weight loss. as a result of this sufferers often feel hungry, so many incredible meals (polifagi).
if you run into the causes of diabetes such as the above treatment therapies done immediately, or it will be much better to prevent disease before diabetes mellitus
