Nursing 100 word positive response due tonight at 10pm must have three refernces

Type 2 Diabetes MellitusDiabetes mellitus (DM) is a common chronic disease that brings burden on health care systems worldwide and the ninth major cause of death (Marie et al., 2018, Zheng et al., 2018). DMis a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by abnormally high blood glucose levels as a result of either insulin deficiency or cellular resistance to the actionof insulin (Arcangelo et al., 2016). Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most prevalent form of DM accounting to 90% to 95% of the DM cases. In T2DM, there is insulin resistance andinappropriate insulin secretion. Family history of DM, obesity (205 over desired body weight), Race/ethnicity (African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, Asian Americans,Pacific Islanders have increased risk), age older than 45 years-old, previously identified as having impaired fasting glucose, hypertension, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levelgreater than 35 mg/dl or triglyceride level greater than 250 mg/dl, history of gestational DM, and sedentary lifestyle are the major risk factors for T2DM (Rosenthal & Burchum, 2018).Drug for T2DMThe Association for the Study of Diabetes (ADA) and the European Association for the study of Diabetes recommended a four-step approach in managing hyperglycemia forT2DM. Metformin is the first drug of choice for T2DM after diagnosis (Rosenthal & Burchum, 2018). Biguanides (metformin) are oral antidiabetic drugs. However, are not consideredhypoglycemic agents because their primary pharmacologic action does not increase insulin secretion (Arcangelo et al., 2016). Metformin is started immediately along with lifestyle and dietchanges. Metformin when used as monotherapy does not caused hypoglycemia and do not promote hyperinsulinemia or weight gain. Metformin reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL) andraised HDL. Common side effects are lactic acidosis, gastrointestinal reactions (nausea, upset stomach and diarrhea). Patients’ needs to take metformin before meals in the morning andevening. The dosage is started low (500 or 850 mg daily or twice daily for the IR tablets) and can be increased weekly as needed to the maximum (2,550 mg per day). Metformin should becarefully titrated in elderly and contraindicated in children, alcoholics, presence of kidney and hepatic dysfunction (Rosenthal & Burchum, 2018).Short-term impact of uncontrolled DMMaintaining a healthy body weight by engaging in regular physical activity, consuming a healthy diet and medication adherence is important for reducing the risks of chronicuncontrolled DM (hospitalizations due to diabetic ketoacidosis and coma) ( Zheng et al., 2018).Long-term impact of uncontrolled DMInsulin dysfunction affects many body systems causing hypertension, coronary heart disease, and other complications like neuropathies, retinmopathies, amputation that may affect sociallife and quality of life ( Zheng et al., 2018). Advanced practice registered nurses have a vital role in focusing on preventative healthcare maintenance to promote quality of life and preventuncontrolled DM impacts.ReferencesArcangelo, V.
