OR

OR

Definition of “pre-diabetes”

• Impaired fasting glucose (IFG) = FPG 100-125 mg/dl

• Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) = 2-h post load glucose 140-199 mg/dl

• IFG and IGT indicate a risk factor for diabetes and cardiovascular disease

Diabetes Screening

• Screening identifies asymptomatic patients who might have diabetes

• Consider in patients ≥ 45 years especially if their BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2

• Screen patients < 45 years old if they are overweight + an additional risk factor

• FPG should be done initially

• Repeat screening every 3 years

Oral Therapies

Metformin

hepatic glucose production, intestinal glucose absorption, insulin sensitivity

• Efficacy: A1C 1.5%

• Adverse effects– Primarily GI (up to 50%)

• Diarrhea, abdominal bloating, nausea• Titrate dose at weekly intervals to minimize AEs• Give with meals

– Lactic acidosis- rare• Monitor SCr

Contraindications to Metformin

• Renal impairment SCr >1.5 for men, >1.4 for women

• Radiocontrast studies

• Age >80 unless normal GFR

• Hypoxia

• Liver dysfunction

• No contraindications identified yet

Non-Oral Therapies

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists

• Exenatide (Byetta®)

• Glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) analog– Incretin mimetic– Resistant to degradation by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4)– Suppresses high glucagon levels– Delays gastric emptying (can affect absorption of other medications)

• Efficacy: ↓ A1C 0.5-1%

• Dosing:– 5 mcg SC twice daily within 60 min of meals– Increase to 10 mcg bid after 4 weeks

• FDA approved for type 2 diabetes in patients on metformin, sulfonylurea, TZD, or a combination who are not at goal– Not yet approved for use with basal insulin

GLP-1 Physiology

GLP-1 secreted upon the ingestion of food

Exenatide adverse effects/contraindications

• AE’s– N/V, diarrhea (30-45%)– Modest weight loss (a good

side effect)– Hypoglycemia especially in

combination with sulfonylureas

– Anti-exenatide antibodies

• Monitoring– Renal function– A1C in 3 months

• CI’s– Type 1 diabetes

• Precautions– CrCl < 30 ml/min– Gastroparesis– Hypoglycemia

Pramlintide (Symlin®)

• Synthetic analog of human amylin– Suppresses glucagon secretion

• Suppression of endogenous glucose from liver– Slows gastric emptying

• Less rapid glucose appearance in the circulation– Regulates food intake due to central modulation of

appetite• Weight loss


• FDA approved for Type 1 or 2 diabetes in patients on optimal insulin therapy who are still not at goal– With or without metformin and/or sulfonylurea therapy

• Efficacy: A1C ~0.1-0.4% in type1 and 0.3-0.7% in type 2

• 60 mcg (10 units) SC titrate to 120 mcg (20 units) before major meals (Type 2 dosing)– Dosed in mcg but drawn up in an insulin syringe– www.symlin.com/7522-Type-2-Dosing.aspx

• Administered in conjunction with mealtime insulin


Adverse Effects

• Insulin-Induced Severe Hypoglycemia:

• Hypoglycemia will occur within 3 hours of injection

• Must reduce pre-meal insulin by 50% at initiation to prevent serious reactions

• Further reduction in insulin may be needed as dosage of pramlintide is adjusted

Contraindications

• Diagnosis of gastroparesis

• Hypoglycemia unawareness

• A1C > 9.0%

• Recurrent severe hypoglycemia requiring assistance during past 6 months

• Using other medications that stimulate gastrointestinal motility

• Pediatrics

Glycemic Goals

Glycemic Control

ADA Guidelines

• A1C < 7.0%– <6.5 may further reduce

complications

• Fasting glucose 90-130 mg/dl

• Peak postprandial glucose <180 mg/dl– 1-2 hours after the start of the

meal

AACE Guidelines

• A1C < 6.5%

• Fasting glucose < 110 mg/dl

• 2-h postprandial glucose <140 mg/dl

A1C and Meal Plasma Glucose Levels

• A1C should be as close to normal for the individual patient

• Use less intensive goals for patients with risk for hypoglycemia

• Target postprandial glucose if A1C goals not met after reaching preprandial goals– Target fasting glucose first!

Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG)

• At least 3 times/day if on insulin injections

• If on orals, just use SMBG to help them achieve their glycemic goals

• Use the data to make decisions on what therapy to add

Diabetes Care 2007;30(Suppl 1)

Lifestyle + Metformin- Step 1

• Titrate metformin to max dose over 1-2 months

• TZDs and sitagliptin are also approved for monotherapy

• Consider adding other oral medications if there is persistent hyperglycemia

Lifestyle Modifications

Diet

• Weight loss will reduce insulin resistance

• Saturated fat < 7 % of total daily calories

• Carbohydrates should be from fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, low fat milk– Low carb diets < 130 g/day not recommended for weight loss

• Recommend sugar alcohols and nonnutritive sweeteners

• Limit alcohol to 1 drink/day for women 2 drinks/day for men– If on insulin or a secretagogue drink alcohol with food to avoid

hypoglycemia

Exercise

• 150 min/week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity (50-70% of max heart rate)

• 90 min/week of vigorous aerobic exercise (>70% of max heart rate)

• Resistance exercise 3 times a week

• Improves glycemia

OR

Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME)

• All patients with diabetes should receive DSME after diagnosis

• Teaches patients about the disease and how to improve self care

• Should be conducted by either a CDE or health care professional with recent experience in diabetes management

Additional Medications - Step 2

• Add within 2-3 months of initiation of therapy

• Sulfonylurea– Cheapest option

• TZDs– More expensive– Cardiac risk with rosiglitazone

• Insulin– Most effective option– Consider in patients with A1C >8.5% or symptoms of hyperglycemia– Initiate with basal insulin

Step-2 Alternatives

• Sitagliptin

• Glinides

• Exenatide

Step-3 Initiate or intensify insulin therapy

• Start or intensify insulin if lifestyle + metformin + a 2nd medication have not attained goal A1C

• Third oral medication can be considered if A1C is close to goal <8.0%– Expensive, not as effective as insulin– Exenatide could be used at this step

• D/C insulin secretagogues (sulfonylurea or glinides) when pre-prandial rapid insulin is started

Long Acting Insulin 10 units or 0.2 units/kg

• 20 – 60% of Diabetics have HTN

• Epidemiologic evidence from the UKPDS indicate that each 10 mmHg decrease in mean SBP results in: 12% any DM complication 15% any DM-related death 11% MI 13% microvascular complications

American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care. 2007;30:S4-S41.

Hypertension

• Weight loss 1 kg results in of MAP ~ 1 mmHg

• Sodium restriction– In non-diabetic patients reduces SBP ~ 5 mmHg and DBP ~2 - 3

mmHg

• Drug Therapy (If SBP ≥ 140 mmHg or DBP ≥ 90 mmHg or lifestyle modification failure)– 1st choice: ACE-I or ARB– 2nd choice: Thiazide, β-Blocker, or Non-DCCB

JNC 7 report. JAMA 2003;289:2560-72.

Cholesterol Management• Screening:

– Fasting lipid panel at least annually – More often if needed to achieve goals– In adults with low-risk lipid values, may obtain fasting lipid

panel every 2 years

• Goals:– LDL < 100 mg/dL

• Optional: LDL <70 mg/dL– TG < 150 mg/dL– HDL:

• > 40 mg/dL for males• > 50 mg/dL for females

Diabetic Nephropathy

• Occurs in 20 to 40% of diabetics

• Most common cause of ESRD

• ESRD develops in 50% of type 1 patients with overt nephropathy within 10 years

• ESRD develops in about 20% of type 2 patients with overt nephropathy within 20 years

Microalbuminuria 30 - 299

Clinical albuminuria > 300

Two of three specimens collected within a 3-6 month period should be abnormal before diagnosing.

Exercise within 24 hr, infection, fever, CHF, marked hyperglycemia or HTN, pyuria, & hematuria may elevate urinary albumin excretion over baseline values


Nephropathy: Screening

• Screening– DM 1: Within 5 years of diagnosis– DM 2: Upon diagnosis– DM 1 and 2: Follow-up exams annually

• If (+) for microalbuminuria, test twice more over next 3 to 6 months – If 2 of 3 tests are positive, they have microalbuminuria and

should have treatment started

• Serum creatinine should be measured at least annually for estimation of GFR

American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care. 2007;30:S4-S41

Nephropathy: Treatment

• Glycemic control: HbA1c < 7%

• Blood pressure control: BP < 130/80 mmHg– ACE-I / ARBs

• Decrease progression of microalbuminuria and slow rate of decline in GFR in patients with proteinuria

• Non-DCCBs, BB’s, or thiazide acceptable if intolerant to ACEI/ARB

• If ACE-I, ARBs, or thiazide used, monitor K+

• Protein restriction– With presence of nephropathy

• ≤ 0.8 g/kg per day (~ 10% of daily calories)

American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care. 2007;30:S4-S41

Diabetic NeuropathySensorimotor

structure and biomechanics, vascular status, and skin integrity.• Neurologic status assessed with 5.07 (10-g)

monofilament• Also consider: pin-prick sensation, temperature and

vibration perception (using tuning fork)• Assess for history of claudication, and assess pedal

pulses• Assess skin integrity especially b/w toes and under

metatarsal heads. Look for erythema, warmth, or callus formation (increased plantar pressure)

• Bony deformities, limitation in joint mobility, and gait and balance should be assessed

Diabetic Neuropathy Treatment

• Glycemic control: HbA1c < 7%

• Foot care– Proper footwear– Daily patient assessment– Moisturizing

• Not between toes

– NO bare feet!

Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment• Optimal glycemic control: GOAL HbA1c < 7%
