NR 601 (NR 601)

Glucose metabolism disorders Types of DM 1. Type 1- insulin deficiency. Subjective findings- polyuria, polydipsia, and polyphagia. Objective- dehydration. 2. Type 2- Type 2 DM is characterized by the abnormal secretion of insulin, resistance to the action of insulin in the target tissues, and/or an inadequate response at the level of the insulin receptor. A patient may, however, present with pruritus, fatigue, neuropathic complaints such as numbness and tingling, or blurred vision. • Diagnosti...
