What occurs when blood glucose concentration decreases too much?
When the level of glucose in blood decreases too much insulin shock or hypoglycemia can occur. Symptoms that can develop include cold and pale skin, sweating, fainting, heart palpitations, and mental cloudiness.
What is the medical term meaning blood condition of less than normal sugar?
hypoglycemia. hypo means low , glyc means sugar and emia means in the blood.
How do you differentiates between hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia?
In simple terms, hypoglycemia is the condition caused by a low level of blood glucose, whereas hyperglycemia is the condition caused by a high level of blood glucose.
How is hypoglycemia diagnosed?
A common test to diagnose hypoglycemia is the extended oral glucose tolerance test.
When a diabetic does not have enough glucose in their blood it develops a condition called?
i think its hypoglycemia means low amount of blood sugar so you have to have sugar often becky 12
Why does the fluid in a dialysis machine have the same concentration of salt as the blood?
because if the concentrations are different ,important or much needed substances may pass out of the blood into the tube if the concentration of that substance is low in the patients blood, so conditions of the patient can become even worst.
A decrease in blood glucose that causes the inhibition of insulin is an example of?
Hypoglycemia
What can glucose tests detect?
increased blood glucose (hyperglycemia), decreased blood glucose (hypoglycemia), increased glucose in the urine (glycosuria), and decreased glucose in CSF, serous, and synovial fluid glucose.
What are symptoms of hypoglycemia, and how low is too low?
Very often, hypoglycemia symptoms occur when blood glucose levels fall below 70 mg/dl. But, many people have blood glucose readings below this level and feel no symptoms. This is called hypoglycemia unawareness.
Is there the same concentration of glucose when blood goes into the muscle and when it comes out?
Muscle requires glucose, and so there is not the same concentration of glucose in blood entering and exiting a muscle. The exiting blood will be lower in glucose.
How does hypoglycemia lead to hyponatremia?
when you have high levels of glucose in the blood (hyperglycaemia) this will draw water out of cells due to the increase in osmolarity. With increased water in to the extracellular fluid it will decrease the concentration of sodium (hyponatraemia)
Normally when the concentration of glucose in the blood falls below a certain level stored glucose reenters the blood until the original concentration of blood glucose is part of the process known as?
homeostasis
