This paper explores the aspects of the disease as it relates to the pathophysiology‚ clinical manifestations‚ diagnostic testing‚ collaborative care‚ and nursing care.Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 Diabetes‚ previously referred to as “juvenile diabetes” most often occurs in people under

Diabetes Type 1 Diabetes Type 1 Diabetes is an auto-immune disease where the body’s immune system attacks the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas. People with type 1 diabetes cannot produce insulin and require a lifetime of insulin injections for survival. The disease can occur at any age‚ although it mostly occurs in children and young adults. Type 1 diabetes can also be called ‘juvenile onset diabetes’ or ‘insulin dependent

Summative Assignment – Diabetes Part 1: - Diabetes is a disease in which the body’s cells have an inability to absorb glucose due to either the pancreas not being able to generate insulin or the cells not reacting to the reduced amount of insulin being produced‚ these are diagnosed as type 1 and type 2 respectively.

Testing for excretion of albumin is used for the screening of diabetic nephropathy. Microalbuminuria‚ or small amounts of albumin in the urine‚ is the earliest manifestation of nephropathy. Annual testing for 5 years for patients is recommended for patients who have had type 1 and for everyone with type 2. (Ignatavicius & Workman‚ 2012). Screenings
