DiabetesWhat is Juvenile (Type 1)
Diabetes?
Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by deficiency or lack of the hormone insulin.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disorder where the beta-cells of the pancreas are destroyed.
Insulin is not produced endogenously, therefore supplemental insulin is required to sustain life.
Type 1 diabetes has two peaks of onset.
-early childhood, 5-7 years
-puberty, 11-13 years
(Felner, Klitz, Ham, Lazaro, Stastny, 2005)
(Schub, Strayer, 2008)
Diabetes on the Cellular Level
Food → Increases intracellular concentration of glucose → Increases the ATP/ADP ratio → depolarizes plasma membranes→ Calcium can enter via voltage gated calcium channels →Increases intracellular calcium→ glucose induced insulin release → insulin → glucose uptake from liver fat and muscles→ Decrease of blood glucose→ decrease of ATP/ADP ratio→ opens potassium ATP channels→ membrane hyper polarization→ no more insulin. (Hussain & Cosgrove, 2005)
So you got that… Right?

Causes & Risk Factors Genetics-related to the
human leukocyte antigen complex.
Genetic factors account for about half of the risk
Environmental factors include: viruses
Diabetes patients have antibodies that attack the beta cells of the pancreas
Diet: cow’s milk has been thought to trigger the destruction of pancreatic beta cells
(A.D.A.M., 2006) Rate of mortality in
African Americans are higher, which is related to acute complications
(Hussain, Cosgrove, 2005)
Manifestations of DiabetesPolyphagia
Polyuria
Polydipsia
Weight loss
Enuresis or nocturia
Irritability
Shortened attention span
Lower frustration tolerance
Fatigue
Dry skin
Blurred vision-sudden vision changes
Poor wound healing
Headache
Flushed skin
Frequent infections
Hyperglycemia
-glucosuria
Diabetic ketosis*
Diabetic ketoacidosis*
Tingling or numbness in hands or feet
(Hokenberry & Wilson, 2008)

Treatment and Management Surgery-Replace or transplant the
pancreas, its cells, or beta-cells. Insulin Diet modification Low impact aerobic exercise,
moderate and regular
(Hokenberry & Wilson, 2008)
Insulin Facts
-Human insulin is recommended by physicians as the drug of choice.
-Analogs of human insulin include Humalog and Novalog.
-Human insulin's may be substituted for each other
-Human and pork insulin should never be substituted for each other
(Hokenberry & Wilson, 2008, pg. 1710)
Insulin
• Rapid Acting Insulin- Enters the blood within 15 minutes of injection. Peaks within 30-90 minutes.
• Short acting insulin- Reaches blood within 30 minutes of injection. Peaks within 2-4 hours.
• Intermediate acting insulin- Reaches the blood within 2-6 hours. Peaks within 4-14 hours
• Long-acting insulin-Reaches the blood within 6-14 minutes. Peaks within 10-16
(Hokenberry & Wilson, 2008, pg. 1710)
Methods of Insulin Administration
• Multiple-dose injections, syringes and pens.
• Insulin infusion pump
Future Therapies
-Islet cell or whole pancreas transplant
Glucose Monitoring
-Daily monitoring is essential
(Hokenberry & Wilson, 2008, pg. 1711)

Impact on individual family and community
•Adjustment to a chronic illness is difficult and follows grief process.•School age children tend to accept their condition more easily than adolescents. •For all family, daily compliance with numerous procedure and structured living schedule is difficult. (Hokenberry & Wilson, 2008, pg. 1715)
Diet• needs to include balanced proportion of
protein and carbohydrates eaten several times day .
• Concentrated sweets should be generally avoided, but small exceptions are acceptable if the remainder of the day’s dietary intake and insulin dosages are adjusted accordingly.
• Children with diabetes should take in a prescribed number of calories every day and may require six small meals a day to keep blood sugar levels constant.
(Hokenberry & Wilson, 2008)
• Insulin pump • Finger stick• Insulin injection
Principles of teachingIt is important to educate both the child and the parentMake a list of important concepts for child and parent
Initially establish what the child believes or understands about diabetes.
Address fears and concerns of both the child and parent.
Personalize the education
Use a pace that is appropriate for the family.
Use illustrations and analogies to facilitate learning.
Focus on positives, but include “what if” situations.
Reinforce and build on previous sessions.
(Lowes, 2008)
Initial education should include:
How to recognize hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia and DKA.
How to avoid and manage hypo and hyperglycemia and what to do if DKA occurs.
How to manage diabetes in relation to the child’s normal schedule. Including school, parties and sleepovers.
Childs dietary needs.
Use of insulin, insulin adjustment.
How to test blood sugar levels. Norms.
The importance glycemic control is for growth and development.
(Lowes, 2008)
Outcome of Teaching Outcome of Teaching
Clients will:
Understand diabetes
Understanding and verbalizing the signs and symptoms of hypo and hyperglycemia
Ability to test blood sugar levels
Demonstrate understanding of normal blood glucose levels
Ability and knowledge to administer insulin
Understand the meal planning and appropriate food choices
Understanding the importance of exercise
Maintain proper hygiene
Child will have a positive self-image
(Hokenberry & Wilson, 2008)

Statistics• About 186,300 young people in the
US under age 20 had diabetes in 2007.
• 15,000 US youths, under 20 years of age, are diagnosed annually with type 1 diabetes while 3,700 are newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
• Non-Hispanic white youth had the highest rate of new cases in 2003.
• Diabetes was the 7th leading cause of death listed in the US in 2006.
• The risk for death among people with diabetes is twice that of people without diabetes who are similar in age.
