high blood pressure
Diseases Process
Instructed patient on how when blood
presses against a vessel wall with too much force, muscles in the wall lose their stretch. This causes the wall to thicken, which narrows the vessel passage and reduces blood
flow.
Instructed patient on diagnosis of ASHD/CAD, which occurs when there is a narrowing of the blood
vessels supplying the heart muscle, restricting blood
flow.
Instructed on Anemia. Pernicious anemia is a disease where large, immature circulate in the blood
, and do not function as blood
cells; it is a disease caused by impaired uptake of vitamin B-12 due to the lack of intrinsic factor in the gastric mucosa.
Patient was instructed on stress. In people with diabetes stress can alter blood
glucose levels. To prevent stress form getting the best of the blood
sugar get the stress under control by eating a healthy diet, getting adequate sleep, taking part in regular activity and learning relaxation techniques.
Patient was instructed on the importance to have a good blood
sugar control to avoid future diabetes complications. A great diabetes management plan includes
Patient was instructed on Insulin. Insulin is a hormone released from the pancreas. A hormone is a chemical messenger secreted by a gland that then travels in the blood
to act on other parts of the body. Insulin is the primary substance responsible for maintaining appropriate blood
sugar levels. Insulin allows sugar to be transported into cells so that they can produce energy or store the glucose until it is needed.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. The symptom of being frequently urinating is because the excess blood
sugar spills into the urine, meaning that as the blood
filters
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. When the blood
sugar level rises abovemg/dL, the kidneys will eliminate some of the extra sugar through the urine. Along with sugar, the kidneys release large amounts of fluid, which causes increased urination. If the blood
sugar level continues to rise and patient hasn
People with long-standing diabetes develop a condition known as hypoglycemia unawareness or hypoglycemia without warning, in which they no longer develop the usual symptoms that herald the onset of hypoglycemia. This condition can be reversed by maintaining high
er blood
sugar levels for a short period of time (about two weeks) and scrupulously avoiding low blood
sugar.
Patient was instructed on hypoglycemia. The body uses hormones to keep the blood
sugar in a normal range. But a long-term health problem that needs treatment can cause blood
sugar to drop too low. It could be caused by: Medicines, Drinking too much alcohol, Diseases that affect the pancreas, liver, kidneys, adrenal glands, or other organs, Metabolism problems that run in families.
