4 Terminology No longer using the term diabetic. Diabetes does not define people. People with diabetes are individuals with diabetes, not diabetics. Diabetic will continue to be used related to complications, e.g., diabetic retinopathy. ADA, Diabetes Care,2016;

6 The Case of AB (Diagnosis) AB is a 34 year old male who presents to the office with complains of worsening vison, nocturia, nightmares, and extreme thirst. MH is non-contributory SH-tonsillectomy, appendectomy FH is significant for DM in his father and paternal grandmother, CAD in father with stents at age 54, HTN in his mother SH is significant for smoking ½ ppdx20 years, occasional ETOH, +marijuana. He is single and works in a packing warehouse.

7 The Case of AB cont Vitals-weight 234#, BMI 35, BP 149/87, P89 A1c in office today 9.3% PE- HEENT-WNL Cardio-RRR Lungs-CTA Abdomen-obese LE-trace edema, ++DP pulses, Feet-+sensation to 10gram monofilament

8 The Case of AB (year 1) AB returns to your office 3 months after diagnosis. He has been to DSME classes. He states that he has attempted to change his eating habits (less fatty foods, fewer sweets, etc.) and tried to exercise (he walks a lot at work and lifts heavy boxes). He weight today is 230#, BP: 140/90 Labs: chol-204mg/dl, LDL 112mg/dL, Cr-1.3, microalb-10, TSH 2.5, A1c-8%

9 The Case of AB (year 3) It has been 3 years since diagnosis. You have seen AB in clinic every 3-4 months in the interim since his first visit. In that time you have increased his Metformin to 1gm BID, started glimiperide 4mg BID and put him on max dose of Invokana 300mg/d. He is also on a statin and an ACE. He has managed to lose 12# and keep it off. He reports mild nausea, urinary frequency and some numbness and tingling of his feet.

10 The Case of AB (year 3) Labs: chol-157mg/dl, LDL 95mg/dL, urine microalb-25, A1c-8.8% PE: unremarkable

11 "There are two times to start insulin for type 2 diabetes," "The first is any time blood sugar is significantly out of control and a patient has symptoms,. "In these cases, the need for insulin may be short-term. The second time is when type 2 diabetes has progressed over many years and the pancreas can no longer make enough insulin to respond to other diabetes medications." Alaleh Mazhari, DO Loyola University Health System

12 Insulin A peptide hormone composed of 51 amino acids secreted by pancreatic beta cells Synthesized as preproinsulin, then cleaved to proinsulin and stored in secretory granules, which is then cleaved into C-peptide and insulin in the secretory granules

14 What is the Best Practice for Managing Diabetes with Insulin? Anticipatory, physiologic insulin dosing prescribed as a basal/ bolus insulin regimen giving the right type of insulin, in the right amount, at the right time, to meet the insulin needs of the patient Wesorick, et al.

15 Normal Insulin Secretion Basal: continuous insulin to compensate for liver glucose Bolus: surge for food 1 st phase: rapid rise in serum insulin levels inhibits glucagon release and therefore inhibits glycogenolysis 2 nd phase: to maintain normoglycemia postprandially

16 Components of Physiologic Insulin Regimen Basal insulin (detemir, glargine, NPH,degludec) Circulates between feedings Restrains glucose production, and catabolism of stored fuels Defends against ketoacidosis About 50% of daily insulin requirement Nutritional insulin (aspart, glulisine, lispro, regular) Mimics rapid secretion of insulin in response to feeding Promotes assimilation of ingested nutrients Moderates post-prandial hyperglycemia

50 STARTING INSULIN & ADJUSTING INSULIN

51 Who Should be on Insulin? Type 1 diabetes at any age Uncontrolled hyperglycemia on oral agents Presentation with decompensated diabetes Pregnant women with hyperglycemia Critical illness e.g. myocardial infarction, sepsis No oral access Oral agents contraindicated e.g. NPO, renal or hepatic disease

52

53 How much insulin to start? New start: Usual starting total daily dose: units/ kg larger dose if: steroid therapy, massive obesity smaller dose if: renal failure, hepatic failure, malnourished, type 1 diabetes Half basal, half prandial/bolus ± correctional

55 The Case of AB (cont) 37 yo male. 222#, BMI- 33, BP 150/90, A1c 8.8% It s time for insulin What to do?

56 The Case of AB (year 10) He is now 44 years old. He has regained the weight he previously lost plus an additional 20#--254# (BMI 38). He is not checking BG often, but no feelings of lows. His A1c is 10%. He states he is taking insulin as prescribed, but BG remains elevated What to do now?

57 Pharmacological Therapy For T2DM If noninsulin monotherapy at maximal tolerated dose does not achieve or maintain the A1C target over 3 months, add a second oral agent, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, or insulin. Use a patient-centered approach to treatment. Don t delay insulin initiation in patients not achieving glycemic goals. ADA, Diabetes Care,2016; American Diabetes Association Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Approaches to glycemic treatment. Diabetes Care 2016; 39 (Suppl. 1): S52-S59

58 Recommendations: Older Adults Glycemic goals for some older adults might be relaxed but hyperglycemia leading to symptoms or risk of acute hyperglycemic complications should be avoided in all patients. Hypoglycemia should be avoided in older adults with diabetes. It should be screened for and managed by adjusting glycemic targets and pharmacologic interventions.
