 Quantitatively we eat more then before
and qualitatively the food that we ingest
has lost its nutritive properties due to their
excessive processing.
 It is a methabolic disease with chronic
evolution

 It can be genetically determined or

gained
The classical symptomatical triad cosists of:

 Polyphagia

 Polyuria

 Polydipsia
 The treatement of a diabetic works only
if the patient cooperates and has solid
knowledge about this disease.
 It is a fact that 91.1% of the diabetics
diagnosed with diabetes type II also had
problems with their weight

 In 80 % of the cases the disease occurs

after 40-45 years old and in what
concerns childrens the disease appears
at puberty.
 The endocrin pancreas is formed of
Langerhans islets and it consists of
three groups of cells:
 Beta cells, which provide insulin
 Alfa cells, which produce glucagon
 Delta cells
 Diabetes has three clinical forms:

 Type I Diabetes which results from the body’s

failure to produce insulin.
 Type II Diabetes which results from insulin
resistance, a condition in which cells fail to
use insulin properly.
 Gestational Diabetes occurs when pregnant
women without a previous diagnosis of
diabetes develop a high blood glucose level.
It may precede development of type 2 DM.
 It damages the blood vessels,
 Ischemic heart disease,
 It may lead to visual symptoms, reduced
vision or even blindness.
 Diabetic foot ulcers is one of the major complications of
Diabetes. Up to 15% of diabetics are likely to develop a
foot ulcer. Diabetic foot conditions develop from a
combination of poor circulation and neuropathy. A minor
injury left untreated may lead to foot ulcers and possible
aputation.
 Diabetic coma is a reversible form
of coma found in people with diabetes mellitus.
It is a medical emergency.
Three different types of diabetic coma are
identified:
 Severe diabetic hypoglycemia,
 Diabetic ketoacidosis advanced enough to
result in unconsciousness from a combination of
severe hyperglycemia, dehydration and shock,
and exhaustion,
 Hyperosmolar nonketotic coma in which
extreme hyperglycemia and dehydration alone
are sufficient to cause unconsciousness.
 Antidiabetic medication for type II Diabetes:
- Maninil
- Daonil
- Euglucon
- Benclamid
 Medication for type I Diabetes:
- Lantus
- Insulatard
- Mixtard
- Apidra
 The insulin pen is the most
common method and
provides the patient to
dosage his insulin precisely.

 The insulin Pomp is another

device use by Diabetics, it
must be worn permanently,
it works as a healthy
pancreas offering a certain
dosage of insulin in certain
moments as needed.
