4 Diagnosis of Diabetes Test Options A1C 6.5 % Laboratory Value for Diagnosis Fasting Plasma lucose Casual Plasma lucose 2-hour OTT (75g glucose) 126 mg/dl 200 mg/dl and symptoms (polyuria, polydipsia, weight loss) 200 mg/dl Must be confirmed on subsequent day unless unequivocal symptoms of hyperglycemia No gold standard but A1C has less variability with stress or illness, and convenience of not requiring fasting ADA Clinical Practice Recommendations 2013 Suppl.1; ADA, EASD, IDF International Expert Committee Report on A1C for Diagnosis of Diabetes.. Diagnosis: Understanding the A1C RBC Hgb Red Blood Cell Hemoglobin lucose Normal A1C High A1C A1C and Blood lucose oal with diabetes A1C no diabetes Obtained every 3-6 months after diagnosis 4

5 Priorities of Care for Adults with Diabetes Diagnosis Self Management Knowledge and Skills lucose Monitoring Living and Coping Food Plan & Nutrition Risk Reduction Physical Activity Problem Solving Medication lucose Lipid Disorders Hypertension Complications Other Essentials of Care International Diabetes Center, Park Nicollet Clinic Diabetes Treatment Options Nutrition Therapy for Diabetes Many confusing messages Count carbohydrates Eat whole grains Don t eat sugar Lose weight Eat low carb or no carb Must eat snacks Cut back on fat Avoid white carbs Eat fish regularly Add cinnamon 5

6 oals of Nutrition Therapy for Diabetes Promote healthful eating patterns emphasizing variety appropriate portion sizes improve overall health (BP, lipids, glycemic control, weight) To address individual nutrition needs To maintain the pleasure of eating by providing positive messages about food choices while limiting food choices only when indicated by scientific evidence Provide practical tools for day-to-day meal planning Evert et al.
