What is High Blood Pressure? When the heart beats, it pumps blood out to all parts of the body thru the arteries creating force or pressure against thewalls of the arteries.Likeair ina tire,bloodfillsarteries toacertaincapacity.But justas toomuchairpressurecandamagea tire,highbloodpressure candamagehealthyarteries.Whenbloodpressure ishigh theheartmustworkharder topump the sameamountofblood through the arteries.Bloodpressure rises and fallsduring theday, butwhen bloodpressure stayshigh over time, it is calledhigh bloodpressure (HBP)orhypertension.Thewear and tear causedbyuntreatedhighbloodpressure can causedamage to theheart,kidneys and eyes, and increases the risk forheart attack, stroke,kidney failure, coronary arterydisease, andother serioushealthproblems. Signs and Symptoms of High Blood Pressure Most of the time, high bloodpressuredoes not cause any symptoms. It is oftendiagnosedwhen apatient visits theirphysician for a routine check-up.Many peopledo not realize they have high blood pressure until it has causeddamage to their body. In rare cases, headaches can result from extremelyhighbloodpressure. Understanding High Blood Pressure

Complications of High Blood Pressure

HighBloodpressure that isnot controlled can cause long-termdamage toyourblood vessels,brain,heart,kidneys,and eyes.Learning aboutyourbloodpressure canhelp reduceyour riskofhaving a strokeorheart attack. Askyourhealth careprovider to checkyourbloodpressure today.

BRAIN Stroke –Bloodvessels in thebrain thataredamaged,weakened andnarrowedbyhighbloodpressuremaybulgeout (aneurysm) andburst causingblood to seep into thebrain tissue (hemorrhage). Orblood clotsmay form in thearteries leading to thebrain, blockingbloodflow. Transient IschemicAttack –TIA (ministroke) is abrief, temporarydisruptionofblood supply to thebrain. It’soften causedby atherosclerosisorablood clot—bothofwhich canbe a resultofhighbloodpressure.

Blood clot Hemorrhage

Aneurysm

EYES Thickened,narrowedor tornbloodvessels in the eyesmay result invision loss.

How is Blood Pressure Measured? Bloodpressure ismeasuredwith a simple testusing abloodpressure cuff.The cuff iswrapped around yourupper arm and inflated enough to stop thebloodflow inyour artery fora few seconds.When the cuff is releasedordeflated, thefirst soundheardbyyourhealth careprovider through the stethoscope is the whooshing soundofyourheartpushingblood intoyour arteries.This is called the “systolic”bloodpressure. The “diastolic”bloodpressure iswhen thisnoisedisappears, indicating theheart is relaxed. The systolicbloodpressurenumber is always statedfirst followedby thediastolicnumber. For example,yourbloodpressuremaybe read as “117over 76”,orwritten “117/76”.

Damagedbloodvessels in the retinaof the eye

Two numbers are used to describe blood pressure:

BLOODVESSELS Highbloodpressure candamage the innerwallsof arteries causing them to thicken andharden,a condition called arteriosclerosis .Cholesterol andother substances (plaque) in theblood can collecton thedamagedwallsof the arteries;a condition called atherosclerosis ;andmayblockbloodflow causingproblems suchas chest pain (angina),heartattack,heart failure,kidney failure, stroke,blocked arteries inyour legsorarms (peripheralarterialdisease), eyedamage, and aneurysms.

Diastolic (bottom number) The second number is lower than the systolic pressure and measures blood pressure when the heart relaxes between beats.This is called “diastolic bloodpressure.”Anormal healthy number is around 76. Your blood pressure normally changes throughout the day. It rises when you are active, and lowerswhenyou are resting. Systolic (top number) The top number called “systolic blood pressure” measures bloodpressurewhen the heartpumps blood forward through the arteries to the restofyourbody.This force createspressureon thearteries.Bloodpressure ishighest when theheartbeats,pumping theblood.Anormalhealthynumber is around 117. mmHg is ameasurementofpressure

LeftVentricularHypertrophy (LVH) –Highbloodpressure forces theheart to workharder topumpblood to the restof thebody.This causes theheart’s leftpumping chamber (the leftventricle) to thickenor stiffen limiting theventricle’s ability topump blood, increasing the riskofheartattack,heart failure and sudden cardiacdeath. Heart failure –Over time, the strainon theheart fromhighbloodpressure can cause theheart toweaken andwork less efficiently, eventually failing tomeet thebody’sdemand forblood.

Whathappens inType 2Diabetes Much of the foodyou eat isbrokendown intoglucose.Glucose is the form of sugar in theblood and is themain source of energy for thebody. Glucoseneeds thehelp of ahormone called insulin to enter thebody cells.Normally thepancreas releases the right amount of insulinneeded to transferglucose fromyourblood toyour cells. InType 2diabetes,problems occurwhen the insulin that isproduced in thepancreasdoesn’twork correctly,not enough insulin ismade or thebody’s cells resist insulin. UNDERSTANDING TYPE 2 DIABETES

UNDERSTANDING TYPE 1 DIABETES

What is Diabetes? UNDERSTANDING DIABETES Types of Diabetes

What IsType 2Diabetes? Type 2 diabetes or T2DM, once known as non-insulin- dependent or adult-onset diabetes, is a progressive metabolic disorder that affects how your body uses sugar (glucose) from food. Glucose is an important source of energy for the cells of your body and organs. If you have diabetes, itmeans you have toomuch glucose (sugar) in yourblood,which can lead to serioushealthproblems. T2DM isacomplexdiseasewithmultiple factors linked to its cause and development, but ismainly characterized by a reduction in insulin secretion from the pancreas alongwith the body’s inability to use insulin properly (a condition called insulin resistance) tokeepbloodglucose (bloodsugar) levels normal. Insulin is the hormone that is needed to transportglucose (sugar) from the foodyoueat toyour cells. Type 2 diabetes is the most common and increasingly widespread form ofdiabetes, and it is believed that genetic and environmental factors play a role in its development. Being overweight is strongly linked to the development of T2DM, but not everyone with T2DM is overweight. It is most often associated with older age, but is a growing problem among U.S. children and adolescents. Type 2 diabetes in youth can have a devastating effect on one’s kidneys andheart at ayoung age. Symptoms (Manypatientsmayhaveno symptoms) • Increased thirst • Initialweightgain followedbyweight loss •Fatigue •Frequenturination •Dry skin •Blurredvision •Tingling inhands and feet •Erectiledysfunction,vaginaldryness RiskFactors High riskpatientswithout symptoms shouldbe screened every 3yearsbeginning at age 45.Patientswith symptoms shouldbe screened as soon aspossible. T2DM risk factors include: •High-risk ethnicity:AfricanAmerican,Latino, NativeAmerican,AsianAmerican,Pacific Islander •Womenwhohadgestationaldiabetes (highblood sugar duringpregnancy), orwhohavehad ababyweighing 9pounds ormore atbirth •History ofprediabetes,prediabetes isblood sugar levels higher thannormal,butnotyethigh enough tobe diagnosed asdiabetes •History ofhighbloodpressure (hypertension) and/or •Obesity or overweight •Lack ofphysical activity •Parent or siblingwithT2DM

What is Type 1 Diabetes?

Complications

Diabetesmellitus type1or type1diabetes (T1DM),onceknownas insulin-dependentor juvenilediabetes isachronic metabolic disorder that prevents the body frommaking energy from food.Most people develop T1DMwhen they are children oryoung adults,but it can occur at any age. People with T1DM cannot produce the hormone insulin, because their immune system (the body’s system for fighting infection)attacksordestroys the insulin-producingbetacells in thepancreas.Without thebetacells, thebody can no longerproduce the insulin needed to help sugar (glucose) enter the cell to beused for energy and the sugar (glucose)buildsup in theblood.Highblood sugar levels can lead tomany long-termhealthproblems. Although theexact causeof type1diabetes isnotknown, it is thought that thedestructionof thepancreaticbeta cells by the immune system is triggered ingenetically susceptible individuals after exposure to a series ofviral illnesses.

Type 1DiabetesMellitus (T1DM) Peoplewith T1DM do not produce insulin because their immune system (the body’s system for fighting infection)attacksanddestroys the insulin-producingbetacells in thepancreas, leaving littleorno insulin.Without insulin, sugarbuildsup in theblood instead ofbeing transferred to the cells. The cause of T1DM is not known but it is thought to be a combination of genetic and environmental factors (exposure to certain viruses).T1DM accounts for about 5% ofdiagnoseddiabetes in theUnited States. It can appear at any age, butdevelopsmost often in children andyoung adults. Type 2DiabetesMellitus (T2DM) iswhen thepancreasdoesnotproduce enough insulin, or the body cannotuse insulin properly (a condition called insulin resistance).T2DM is themost common formofdiabetesandgeneticsand environmental triggers mayplayapart in itsdevelopment.The following factorsplayan important role in causing highblood sugarand insulin resistance in individualsgeneticallyprone to type 2diabetes: • Beta cells in thepancreas slowly stopproducing insulin. • Alpha cells in thepancreasproduce toomuchofahormone calledglucagon that stimulates the liver tomake sugarwhich thebody can’tuse and it’s released into theblood. • The liver fails to store sugar as an energy source. • Thekidney overproducesglucose and INCREASES absorption ofglucose into theblood. • Low insulin levels cause the fat cells tobreakdown and release “free fatty acids” (FFAs).FFAs cause the liver tomakemore sugar, destroy the insulinproducingbeta cells in thepancreas andblock themuscles fromusingglucose for energy. • Muscle cells areunable to absorb anduseglucose for energy.Unusedglucose stays in theblood, increasing sugar levels. • Eating releaseshormones that tell thepancreas toproduce/release insulin,prevent the liver frommaking sugar, slow thepassage of food thru the stomach and send the brain amessage to “feel full”. In T2DM, these hormones are impaired resulting inweight gain and reduced insulin levels. • As onegainsweight, appetite is increased causingmoreweightgain and adding to insulin resistance.

Diabetesmellitusordiabetes isagroupofdiseases thataffect thebody’s cellsability to convertanduse sugar (glucose) from food for energy. The result is toomuch sugar (glucose) in the blood.Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) candamageorgans suchas the eyes,kidneys,nerves,heartandbloodvessels, increasing riskof stroke andheart attacks. Patients with hypertension, high cholesterol, heart disease, a family history of diabetes, those who are overweight orHispanic orAfricanAmerican should be screened for diabetes beginning at age 45. Early diagnosis can slow theprogression of thedisease and lessen the risk of long term complications. Blood tests areused todiagnosediabetes.Alldiabetesblood tests involvedrawingblood and sending it to a lab for analysis.Yourhealth careprovidermayperform the following to test fordiabetes: •A1C blood test shows the average blood glucose levels over the past 3months, and is reported as a percentage, the higher the percentage, the higher your blood glucose levels have been.AnA1C test of greater than 6.5% is considered abnormal. •Fastingplasmaglucose test measuresbloodglucoseafter fasting forat least8hours.Fastingglucose levels above 126mg/dLare considered abnormal. • 2-HourOralGlucose test measuresbloodglucose levelsbefore and 2hours afterdrinking a special sweet liquid. 2-hourpostmealglucose levelsgreater than 200mg/dLare considered abnormal.

Hypoglycemia iswhenblood sugar fallsbelow70mg/dl.This is also known as an insulin reaction. Low blood sugar can be caused by eating too little, not eating often enough, by too much physical activity without eating, or toomuch insulin. Hypoglycemia candevelopquickly inpeoplewithdiabetes. Symptoms include: Hypoglycemia (low-blood sugar)

ThePancreas and Type 1Diabetes When you eat, your pancreas automatically makes the right amount of insulin to help glucose enter the cells. The cells in the pancreas that produce insulin are called beta cells. In type 1 diabetes, the body’s immune system sees the beta cells as a “potentialdanger“ anddestroys them.

ManagingType 2Diabetes People with T2DM can prevent or delay problems by keeping the levelofglucose (sugar) in thebloodas close to normal as possible (85-130 mg/dL), keeping blood pressure and cholesterol under control and by getting regular medical care. Although diabetes is a common disease, every individual needs personalized care. T2DM may be treated with a variety of different medications determinedby blood sugar levels and symptoms.Patients may be prescribed medicine to control cholesterol and blood pressure. Your diabetes healthcare provider will help you to maintain the correct balance between medications,blood sugarmonitoring,diet, and exercise.

High levelsofbloodglucosecandamage the glomeruli (the filtering units of the kidney),which can reduce thekidney’s ability to remove waste and retain importantnutrients such asprotein.
