What is Diabetes?
•Diabetes mellitus is a condition that occurs when the body can't use glucose (a type of sugar) normally. Glucose is the main source of energy for the body's cells. The levels of glucose in the blood are controlled by a hormone called insulin, which is made by the pancreas. Insulin helps glucose enter the cells.
•In diabetes, the pancreas does not make enough insulin (type 1 diabetes) or the body can't respond normally to the insulin that is made (type 2 diabetes). This causes glucose levels in the blood to rise, leading to symptoms such as increased urination, extreme thirst, and unexplained weight loss to mention a few.

Diabetes Association Diabetes and Outreach Pilot Outreach
Pilot ProgramDiabetes is a Global Problem:•IDF estimates 366.2 million people worldwide have diabetes. •Projected to increase to 551.8 million by 2030 or 9.9% of adults, which equates to approximately three more people with diabetes every 10 seconds. •The number of people with diabetes is increasing in every country and disproportionately affects the socially disadvantaged.•In 2004, an estimated 3.4 million people died from consequences of high blood sugar.•More than 80% of diabetes deaths occur in low and middle income countries.•Health systems in many of these developing countries are not equipped to meet the rising demand.

Diabetes is a Global Problem Cont.:
•Diabetes has become one of the major causes of premature illness and death in many countries and a leading cause of blindness, amputation and kidney failure.•IDF estimates that half of people with diabetes are undiagnosed.•WHO projects that diabetes deaths will increase by two thirds between 2008 and 2030. •4.8 million people died and more than $471 B USA spent on healthcare for diabetes in 2012.•Healthy diet, regular physical activity, maintaining a normal body weight, avoiding tobacco use and excess use of alcohol can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes

Education is essential:
“Access to essential education for everyone is the key to prevention and control of diabetes. In order to reduce the impact of diabetes, basic knowledge on the prevention and optimal management of diabetes must reach those with diabetes, those at risk from the disease, our healthcare provides and policy makers.”
Dr. Samlee Plianbangchang-Regional Director SEARO, November 14, 2012

In the WHO South East Asia Region, there are an estimated 81 million living with diabetes.
•Prevalence of diabetes varies between 6% to 16% among adults across countries in the Region.
•What is of concern in the Region, is that an estimated 33% to 50% of diabetes goes undiagnosed.
•Delays in diagnosis result in patients developing complications and poor outcomes, resulting in premature mortality.

Diabetes in Myanmar Cont.
Minister of Health, November 14, 2010, notes:
•Growing problem of diabetes and emphasized the need to raise public awareness of the disease. •Estimates that 6% of people in Myanmar between the ages of 25 and 70 have diabetes. •14% of urban dwellers (due to food and life style) and 7% of the rural population have the disease. •Important to raise awareness about the symptoms so that people who develop the disease know they should go to the hospital.

•Diabetes mellitus is a condition that occurs when the body can't use glucose (a type of sugar) normally. Glucose is the main source of energy for the body's cells. The levels of glucose in the blood are controlled by a hormone called insulin, which is made by the pancreas. Insulin helps glucose enter the cells.

• What Happens When We Eat?
26
After eating, most food is turned into blood glucose, the body’s
main source of energy.
![Page 27: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
In people without diabetes, glucose stays in a healthy range because
Normal Blood Glucose Control
Insulin is released at the right times and in the right amounts Insulin helps
glucose enter cells
![Page 28: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
In diabetes, blood glucose builds up for several possible reasons…
High Blood Glucose (Hyperglycemia)
Too little insulin is made
Liver releases too much glucose
Cells can’t use insulin well
![Page 29: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Symptoms of Hyperglycemia
•Increased thirst•Increased urination•Blurry vision•Feeling tired•Slow healing of cuts or wounds•More frequent infections•Weight loss•Nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain
![Page 30: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Hyperglycemia Can Cause Serious Long-Term Problems
•Blindness•Diabetic Retinopathy•Kidney disease•Nerve damage•Heart attack•Stroke•Poor circulation in legs
Amputation
Chronic complications of diabetes
![Page 31: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Two Main Types of Diabetes
Pancreas makes too little or no insulin
Type 1 diabetes
Type 2 diabetes
•Cells do not use insulin well (insulin resistance)•Ability for pancreas to make insulin decreases over time
![Page 32: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Type 1 Diabetes
•1 in 10 people with diabetes have type 1•Most people are under age 20 when diagnosed•Body can no longer make insulin•Insulin is always needed for treatment
![Page 33: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Symptoms of Type 1 Diabetes
•Weight loss•Loss of energy•Increased thirst•Frequent urination•Diabetic ketoacidosis (emergency condition of nausea, vomiting, dehydration, could lead to coma)
Symptoms usually start suddenly
![Page 34: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Managing Type 1 Diabetes
•Blood glucose monitoring•Education•Healthy food choices•Physical activity•Insulin
![Page 35: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Type 2 Diabetes
•9 in 10 people with diabetes have type 2•Most people are over age 40 when diagnosed, but type 2 is becoming more common younger adults, children and teens•Type 2 is more likely in people who:
•Are overweight•Are non-Caucasian•Have a family history of type 2
![Page 36: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes
•Usually subtle or no symptoms in early stages:
•Increased thirst•Increased urination•Feeling tired•Blurred vision•More frequent infections
•Symptoms may be mistaken for other situations or problems•1 in 4 with type 2 aren’t aware they have it
![Page 37: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Treatment for Type 2 Diabetes May Change Over a Lifetime
Always Includes:•Education•Healthy eating•Blood glucose monitoring•Physical Activity
May Include:
•Oral Medications•Insulin

Risk Factors for Type 2 Diabetes
•Overweight and obesity•Sedentary lifestyle•Family history of diabetes•History of gestational diabetes•Getting older•Ethnic/racial background:
•African American•Hispanic/Latino•Native American•Asian American
![Page 39: Diabetes and How it Is Affecting Regional and Global Health with a Focus on Myanmar](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813ced550346895da698d2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Burden of Diabetes
•The leading cause of:•new blindness among adults•kidney failure •non-traumatic lower-limb amputations
•Increases the risk of heart attack and stroke by 2-4 fold•Mortality rates 2-4 times greater than non-diabetic people of the same age
