Conditions

Diabetes clinics are specialized healthcare facilities that provide comprehensive care to patients with diabetes. The conditions that are dealt with by the diabetes clinic may include:

  • Type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disorder that results in the destruction of insulin-producing cells in the pancreas.
  • Type 2 diabetes, a condition in which the body becomes resistant to the effects of insulin or does not produce enough insulin.
  • Gestational diabetes, which occurs during pregnancy and can increase the risk of complications for both the mother and the baby.
  • Prediabetes, a condition in which blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes.
  • Diabetic retinopathy, a complication of diabetes that affects the eyes and can lead to blindness.
  • Diabetic neuropathy, a complication of diabetes that affects the nerves and can cause numbness, tingling, and pain in the hands and feet.
  • Diabetic nephropathy, a complication of diabetes that affects the kidneys and can lead to kidney failure.
  • Diabetic foot ulcers, which are open sores that can develop on the feet due to poor circulation and nerve damage.
  • Hypoglycemia, a condition in which blood glucose levels are too low and can lead to confusion, seizures, and loss of consciousness.
  • Insulin resistance, which can lead to type 2 diabetes and is associated with obesity, physical inactivity, and poor diet.

Symptoms

The symptoms of diabetes can vary depending on the type and severity of the disease. Some common symptoms of diabetes include:

Frequent urination: High blood sugar levels can cause the body to produce more urine, leading to frequent urination.

Excessive thirst: Increased urination can lead to dehydration, which can cause excessive thirst.

Fatigue: High blood sugar levels can cause fatigue, as the body is not able to use glucose effectively for energy.

Hunger: Despite eating, people with diabetes may feel hungry due to their cells not getting enough glucose.

Blurred vision: High blood sugar levels can cause the lens of the eye to swell, leading to blurred vision.

Slow-healing wounds: High blood sugar levels can affect the immune system, making it harder for wounds to heal.

Numbness or tingling in the feet: High blood sugar levels can damage nerves, leading to numbness or tingling in the feet.

Yeast infections: High blood sugar levels can cause the growth of yeast and bacteria, leading to infections such as thrush and jock itch. 

It’s important to note that some people with diabetes may not experience symptoms or may only experience them at a later stage. Therefore, it is important to get regular checkups at SRV Hospitals.

Advance Treatments with SRV Hospitals

Type 1 Diabetes
People with type 1 diabetes need to take insulin injections daily as part of their treatment plan to survive.

Type 2 Diabetes
People with type 2 diabetes have difficulty producing and using insulin effectively and treatment usually includes lifestyle changes, oral medication, and sometimes insulin therapy.

Gestational Diabetes
Gestational diabetes develops during pregnancy and usually goes away after childbirth, but it increases the mother’s risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life. Sometimes diabetes diagnosed during pregnancy is actually pre-existing type 2 diabetes.

  2. Insulin pumps: These small, wearable devices deliver insulin to the body on a continuous basis, eliminating the need for multiple daily injections.
  3. Electronic medical records (EMRs): These digital records allow healthcare providers to quickly access and update patient information, improving communication and collaboration between providers and improving overall patient care.
  4. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning: These technologies are increasingly being used to analyze large amounts of patient data to identify trends and patterns, which can help healthcare providers make more informed decisions about diabetes management and treatment.
