Type I Diabetes Mellitus
Management In the Athletic
Population
Kelly Bachus, Danielle Violette, Patrick Violette,
Kim Anderson, Matt Whitesell
Purpose
•
•
Type I Diabetes is typically diagnosed before the age of 30, and
would be the most common type among high school and
intercollegiate athletes that VSM provides coverage for
We wanted to research the most up to date standard of care for
Type I diabetic athletes to create an evidence based Diabetic Care
Plan for all of VSM to utilize
Research Methods
•
•
•
30 literature review articles used to find the most current
information about Type I Diabetes Mellitus and how it affects
athletes’ participation
Used guideline for our Diabetic Care Plan from Jimenez, et al in
the ‘National Athletic Trainers’ Association Position Statement:
Management of the Athlete With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus’ article
from the Journal of Athletic Training
Consulted with Dr. Alex Diamond and Dr. Kristina Wilson in
Vanderbilt Sports Medicine, and Dr. Bill Russell and Dr. Amy
Potter in Vanderbilt Endocrinology
Pre Participation Examination and Clearance
•
•
History Questionnaire must include:
– Do you have frequent urination?
– Do you have excessive thirst?
– Do you have frequent hunger?
– Have you had any unexplained weight loss?
– Do you have unexplained fatigue?
– Do you have blurred vision?
– Do you have a family history of diabetes? What type?
– Do you have diabetes?
***If they answer yes, consult with team physician and refer to
endocrinologist
Pre Participation Examination and Clearance
•
Existing Diabetes Type I Diagnosed Athletes must submit medical
records documenting:
– HbA1c testing (desired <7% for adolescent, <6% for adult)
– Yearly dilated eye exam
– Yearly kidney function exam
– Yearly neurological exam
– If they have been diabetic for >15 years, a graded exercise
stress test should be performed
– Type (s) and delivery method of daily insulin:
• Insulin to carbohydrate ratio at meals
• Sliding scale (correction factor) for high glucose
• Pump basal rate(s) or long acting injected insulin
Pre Participation Examination and Clearance
•
During Pre-participation Exam evaluate and discuss:
– Diabetes self care skills
– General physical exam
– Educate athlete on effect of their sport on their diabetes
– Make sure they have a medical alert tag
– Athletes need to establish a relationship with a local
endocrinologist
– Complete a diabetes information sheet to keep in their chart
and travel folder (see below)
– Educate on proper foot care and foot wear for their sport
• Inspect feet daily for blisters, abrasions, lacerations
• Cut toe nails straight across
• No walking barefoot
• Avoid poor fitting shoes
– Be aware of training limitations
Blood Glucose Monitoring and Insulin Therapy
•
•
Pre exercise blood glucose should be 110-250 mg/dl
– Check 2-3 times before exercise at 30 min intervals
– Decrease the insulin bolus dose up to 50% at the pre exercise
meal
During exercise >1 hour blood glucose should be checked every 30
min
– ≥250 mg/dl with ketones present—no activity allowed
– ≥300 mg/dl no activity allowed
Blood Glucose Monitoring and Insulin Therapy
•
Post exercise
– Shortly after exercise, they should eat a snack or meal
– If they tend to experience late onset hypoglycemia, measure
blood glucose 2-4 hours post exercise and again before going
to bed
– Check once during the night if they experience nighttime
hypoglycemia
– If nighttime hypoglycemia reoccurs decrease the evening meal
insulin bolus by 50%
Blood Glucose Monitoring and Insulin Therapy
•
Insulin pump Use in Athletes
– Decrease basal rate 20-50% 1-2 hours before exercise
– Decrease bolus dose up to 50% at meal prior to exercise
– Decrease bolus dose up to 50% one hour prior to activity
– Disconnect the pump prior to exercise for no longer than one
hour and monitor blood glucose frequently
– Pump can be worn during non-contact sports. It is
recommended you secure and pad the pump to decrease
jostling during impact activities
– Re-connect the pump immediately after competition
– Check blood 30 minutes after reconnecting the pump to ensure
proper function
Blood Glucose Monitoring and Insulin Therapy
•
Strategies to optimize Insulin Therapy
– Know the athlete’s type of insulin used (both fast and long
acting)
– Know their dosages during the day
– Know their corrections for high blood sugar (carb ratio, should
be established between the athlete and their
endocrinologist/nutritionist)
– Know adjustment strategies for planned activities
– Rotate injection sites for most effective insulin absorption
– If having trouble with insulin therapy document blood sugar
and insulin dosages for a week to have more information to
relay to the endocrinologist/nutritionist
Emergency Situations: Hypoglycemia
– Signs and Symptoms
• Early: hunger, irritability, drowsiness or confusion, rapid
heart rate, sweating, dizziness, or loss of color, typically
develops when the blood glucose is below 70 mg/dl
• Late: brain neuronal glucose deprivation occurs and
causes blurred vision, fatigue, difficulty thinking,
decreased motor control, aggressive behavior, seizures,
convulsions, and loss of consciousness
– Prevention
• Frequent blood glucose monitoring
• Carb intake adjustment pre-exercise or fast acting carb
supplement during exercise
• Insulin dose adjustments
• Avoid exercising during peak of insulin
• Prevent dehydration
Emergency Situations: Hypoglycemia
•
Treatment
– Check if they are alert and able to eat or drink without assistance
– Administer 15 g of fast acting carbs (4 Dex4 tabs, 15 gm sports gel, 4 oz
juice or soda)
– Repeat glucose check every 15 min until blood glucose returns to normal
range
– Once glucose is up, give complex carbohydrate snack (bagel, sandwich)
– If athlete is unconscious keep athlete on their side (hypoglycemia and
glucagon can often cause nausea)
– Call 911
– Inject 1 mg glucagon in the upper thigh muscle (see instructions below)
– Check glucose after 15 min
– If still unconscious give a second glucagon dose if available
– If consciousness is regained and athlete is able to swallow, provide food
– Monitor closely for 2 hours, checking their glucose every 15-20 min
Emergency Situations: Hyperglycemia
– Signs and symptoms
• Nausea, dehydration, decreased cognitive performance, decreased
visual reaction time, sluggishness, fatigue
• Ketosis: Also may have rapid breathing, fruity odor to breath,
unusual fatigue, sleepiness, inattentiveness, loss of appetite,
increased thirst, and frequent urination
– Prevention
• Frequent blood glucose monitoring
• Pre-exercise insulin dosage adjustments
• Frequent blood glucose testing
– Treatment
• Administration of small bolus of rapid acting insulin
• When blood glucose is ≥250 mg/dl, test urine or blood for
ketones; if ketones are moderate or high, exercise is
contraindicated
• When blood glucose is ≥300 mg/dl no activity is allowed
Sick Day Plan (VUMC Division of Pediatric Endocrinology)
•
•
•
•
•
Check blood glucose (BG) every 4 hours around the clock until
they are well
Give BG correction (sliding scale) every 4 hours even if your child
is not eating. Use novolog, humalog or apidra
Test every urine for ketones or test blood ketones every 4 hours
Offer fluids every 15 minutes while awake. If BG under 200, offer
liquids with carbs. If BG over 200, offer sugar-free fluids.
Call 615-322-7842 for any ONE of these reasons:
– Persistent vomiting (more than 3 times) with moderate to large
urine ketones (or blood ketones greater than 1.5 mmol/l)
– Altered behavior
– Persistent rapid breathing
Sick Day Plan (VUMC Division of Pediatric Endocrinology)
•
•
•
•
When you call, be prepared to provide:
– The past 48 hours of blood sugars
– Ketone levels
– Any other symptoms your child may be experiencing
For pump users:
– If blood sugar over 240 and moderate or large ketones, give a
correction for elevated blood sugar with a syringe and change
site
– Always continue the basal rate
For shot takers:
– Always give the basal insulin (lantus, NPH, or levemir)
Follow these critical steps to keep your child’s diabetes in control
when they don’t feel well!
