Diabetes Mellitus & Endocrine Emergencies

What it covers

• What insulin does, and the disease you get without it
• Type 1 and type 2 at the bedside — C-peptide, the honeymoon phase, and who gets which crisis
• Every insulin with its onset, peak and duration, and the timing rules that stop 2 a.m. lows
• Drawing up, mixing clear-before-cloudy, sites and rotation, storage
• Dawn phenomenon vs Somogyi — the 3 a.m. check that tells them apart
• The tablets and the newer injectables, each with its one exam trap
• Sick days, exercise rules, and the feet
• Hypoglycemia treated in minutes, DKA and HHS treated in the right ORDER — fluids, potassium, insulin
• Every endocrine emergency on one page
• The Philippine layer: the numbers, the law, and the family briefing
