641. Oximetry measures arterial blood gases.
642. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) management → smoke cessation, prophylaxis or prevention (vaccination), bronchodilator therapy, regular exercise, and follow up.
643. Glycogenolysis → breakdown of glycogen → glucose.
Gluconeogenesis → synthesis of glucose in liver from proteins → amino acids → triglycerides → fatty acids.
644. Type I (IDDM) → DKA (acetone, fruity odor)
Type II (NIDDM) → hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS)
Hyperglycemia → glucosuria → weight loss
Osmotic diuresis → polyuria → polydipsia → fluid loss → dehydration → blurred vision.
645. Hypovolemia → weak pulse → reflex tachycardia.
