SCREENING PREVENTION

• All individuals should be evaluated annually for
  Diabetes risk on the basis of history, clinical
  and demographic criteria.
• Screening for Diabetes using a fasting plasma
  glucose should be performed every 3 years for
  individuals over 40 years of age.
• More frequent or earlier testing with either a
  fasting plasma glucose or OGTT in people with
  additional risk factors for Diabetes,

12
PREVENTION Pre diabetes

• OGTT should be considered if BMIgt25 and FPG
  between 5.7 7 to identify IGT or Diabetes
• With IGT a program of lifestyle mod that includes
  wt loss exercise to prevent T2D
• With IGT treatment with Metformin or Acarbose
  should be considered.

13
DIAGNOSIS

• FBS gt7 mmol/L symptoms
• RBS gt11 mmol/L symptoms
• PREDIABETES
• IFG FBS 6.1-7 mmol/L
• IGT 2 hr PC glucose on OGTT 7.8-11
• If FBS gt 5.7 mmol/L do OGTT

Recommended targets for glycemic control
A1C ()
FPG/preprandial PG (mmol/L)
2-hour postprandial PG (mmol/L)
Target for most patients
?7.0
4.0-7.0
5.0-10.0
?6.0
4.0-6.0
5.0-8.0
Normal range (considered for patients in whom
it can be achieved safely)
Treatment goals and strategies must be tailored
to the patient, with consideration given to
individual risk factors. Glycemic targets for
children ?12 years of age and pregnant women
differ from these targets. Please refer to
Other Relevant Guidelines for further
details. An A1C of 7.0 corresponds to a
laboratory value of 0.070. Where possible,
Canadian laboratories should standardize
their A1C values to DCCT levels (reference range
0.040 to 0.060). However, as many laboratories
continue to use a different reference range, the
target A1C value should be adjusted based on the
specific reference range used by the laboratory
that performed the test. As a useful guide an
A1C target of 7.0 refers to a threshold that is
approximately 15 above the upper limit of
normal. A1C glycosylated hemoglobin DCCT

Monitoring

• A1c every 3 months
• Self Monitor Glucose, interpret results,alter
  food choices, physical activity, frequency of
  testing medications
• Type 1 should test at least 3 times a day
• Type 2 should test at least daily
• Type 1 in acute illness should test ketones if
  glucose gt14 mmol/L

16
Exercise

• 150 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic
  exercise over 3 nonconsecutive days of the week
  or if willing 4 hrs/week
• Encourage resistance exercise 3 times/week

Type 2 Diabetes - Dual Impairment
Insulin Secretion

• Impaired insulin secretion from pancreatic
  ß-cells
• A sluggish and inadequate response to the glucose
  load imposed by meals
• Characteristic only of Type 2 diabetes
• 100 of patients have impaired secretion at
  diagnosis
• Approx. 84 have insulin resistance
• Also associated with other metabolic conditions

Attributes of Meglitinides Gluconorm
(repaglinide)Starlix (nateglinide)

• Increases early-phase insulin release
• Physiologic response to meals (rapid
  onset and elimination)
• Significant improvement in key blood
  glucose parameters (PPG, FPG, and HbA1c)
• Low risk of hypoglycemia
• Weight neutral

46
Hypoglycemia Why is it Important?

• Annually, about 5 - 20 of patients on oral
  agents have hypoglycemia
• Under-recognized and under-reported
• Substantial impact
• Social embarrassment
• Emotional toll found dead in bed
• Work restrictions (e.g. operating machinery)
• Devastating to elderly patients

47
Adding Repaglinide to Restore Mealtime Insulin
Secretion
If A1C 8 1 mg or 2 mg with meals

• If repaglinide is 1st line or A1C lt8, start 0.5

• Double the dose every week until target achieved
• Maximum mealtime dose (4mg) Maximum daily dose
  (16mg)
