Evaluation and Treatment of Growth Failure in Children
30/01/2008 Duración: 13minWithin the last decade, there have been major advances in the understanding of growth hormone deficiency and its impact on stature, especially short stature. Experts suggest that up to 75% of the cases of growth hormone (GH) deficiency may be reversible. Physicians and endocrinologists now recognize that the growth effects of GH are mediated by a substance called insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). IGF-1, a potent growth and differentiation factor, stimulates the multiple processes leading to statural growth and is normally secreted in response to stimulation by GH.

Focus on Inpatient Diabetes Management: Optimizing Glycemic Control
08/06/2007 Duración: 15minAccording to estimates, at least 15% to 30% of hospitalized patients have hyperglycemia or diabetes. A full 2/3 of critical care patients fall into this category, as do 1/3 of cardiac surgery patients. Hyperglycemia is associated with poor outcomes in the inpatient setting, including a higher rate of infection, delayed healing, and more procedure-related complications.

Updates on Treatment Options in the Modern Management of Diabetes
18/05/2007 Duración: 14minThe standard treatment paradigm for newly diagnosed patients with diabetes is counseling the patient about diet and exercise and starting them on an oral agent.

Focus on Inpatient Diabetes Management: Optimizing Glycemic Control
18/05/2007 Duración: 15minOptimizing glycemic control in the inpatient setting is critical. In the ICU, target blood glucose (BG) levels should be less then 110 mg/dL. In the non-ICU inpatient setting, the level may vary, since patients are likely to be eating

Current issues surrounding initial treatment for Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
06/04/2007 Duración: 14minTreatment of type 2 diabetes begins with efforts to improve lifestyle factors, including diet and exercise. However, lifestyle intervention alone has had limited long-term success in maintaining glycemic goals for most patients with type 2 diabetes, and the majority of patients with type 2 diabetes will require medication over the course of their diabetes.

Treating Persistent Hyperglycemia in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
07/03/2007 Duración: 14minInitial treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus includes education, with emphasis on lifestyle changes including diet, exercise and weight reduction when appropriate. Oral monotherapy is often initiated as first-line therapy, though insulin may be indicated ...

Glycemic Control and Potential Complications in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus
05/03/2007 Duración: 14minDiabetes mellitus is a chronic condition that can lead to complications over time. The long-term complications of diabetes result from the effects of hyperglycemia on blood vessels, causing microvascular and macrovascular disease. Fortunately, many complications can be prevented or minimized with a combination of regular medical care and tight blood glucose monitoring.

Importance of Postprandial Glucose Control
20/12/2006 Duración: 17minCurrent recommendations of the American Diabetes Association (ADA), which have been used predominantly in the United States, present goals for fasting/preprandial and bedtime glucose levels but do not define a target for postprandial glucose. The ADA guidelines also present a glycated hemoglobin (A1C) goal of less than 7%. The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the American College of Endocrinology (ACE) have each published guidelines that define targets for both fasting/preprandial and 2-h postprandial blood glucose and present 6.5% as their A1C goal for glycemic control.
