South America is a subcontinent or the southern part of America's point of view. The continent is located entirely within the Western Hemisphere and mostly in the southern hemisphere. It is bordered to the west by the Pacific Ocean and north and east by the Atlantic Ocean. Central America and the Caribbean are located in the northeast. South America was named in 1507 by cartographers Martin Waldseemüller and Mathias Ringmann after Amerigo Vespucci, who was the first European to suggest that America was not the East Indies, but a New World unknown to Europeans. South America has an area of 17840000 km2, representing 3.5% of the Earth's surface. In 2005, its population was estimated at more than 371 million inhabitants. The citizens of its inhabitants is South American (e) s. South America is ranked fourth in area (after Asia, Africa and North America) and fifth in population (after Asia, Africa, Europe, and the North America). South America has a vast linguistic diversity: there are around 600 languages belonging to 118 families of languages. For example, the 32 languages of Bolivia are 15 different families, including 6 isolates. The 68 languages of Colombia belong to 13 different families, including 10 isolates. However, the contrast is marked between "major" languages (andenne and Guarani) and small Amazonian languages.

Bolivia, Peru, the best way to travel as backpackers remain in Asia. You can organize many tours organized on the spot, if you wish, or so you can fend for yourself for some more sightseeing.
Chili and Argentina, backpacking is also a good means of transportation. That said, these two countries are opposed to the discovery of large spaces and spectacular scenery, rather than contact with the population. It is therefore very interesting to rent a vehicle or vehicles at various locations across the country. We rented a car for three days (rather short) around lakes Argentines in San Martin, a 4x4 to get through the Carretera Austral, or a week's rental near Salta Jujuy (The ideal, given how others have struggled for backpackers bus and htotel).
We believe that the time saved thanks to the car compensates well the extra money to spend on site. For us, one day car rental can visit as much as in two days of backpacking (depending on location of course). Considering the price of hotel, meals, bus transportation, rental is profitable! In addition, the vehicle allows you to access more easily to campsites, cheaper than if you were to take a hotel in town. It wins all the way!
In places where trekking lends itself perfectly, camping, camp is also a very good way to appreciate the beauty of the great national parks like Torres del Paine or Los Coolers (Fitz Roy, Perito Moreno).

Major U.S. tourist destinations Mexico and Canada treated more than 50% of U.S. tourism to the international level, such proportions that these two destinations lie comfortably in the top ten at world. Here's the breakdown of visits by the issuer to both destinations border. Mexico - With its proximity, the ease of entry, the length of the border and the little expensive travel services (approximately 50% of daily expenditure per tourist day compared to other international destinations), is the main destination for U.S.. Mexico international arrivals recorded as visitors staying in the country for one night or more, while referred to as "visitors for a day" to those whose stay does not exceed 24 hours. According to information from the Ministry of Tourism (SECTUR) in 1990, Mexico received 16.3 million arrivals of 44.6 million Americans worldwide, while in 1998 this figure amounted to 18.3 million arrivals of 56.2 million Americans who visited all the destinations worldwide. However, in 1999 U.S. arrivals to this country declined to 17.7 million, although global have reached 58.3 million, rising again to 18.5 million at the end of 2000. Although the government of Mexico requires that U.S. citizens present photo ID and proof of citizenship to enter the country, passports are not required and visitors can stay up to 180 days without a visa requirement. In 1999, survey found that the states of Texas, Florida, Illinois and New York were the main source markets with a share of the packaged product from 16% in the total market. A Despite the growth of the Hispanic American population, traffic segment VFR (visiting family and friends) fell by 10% during 1999 itself, however, it is expected that by 2050 one in four Americans is of Hispanic origin, which can cause significant growth of this market by that date. Most for tourism visitors make their trips in the season from November to March, looking for the kindness of the Mexican sun and beaches, accentuated in this period stages Christmas, New Year and Easter. As current data should be noted that from the events of September 11, official statements of Mexico's tourism sector reported reductions of up to 30% in arrivals from the U.S. Canada - As in the case of Mexico, in 1990 some 12.2 million U.S. visited Canada, while this figure amounted to 15.1 million in 1999, remaining same magnitude at the end of 2000. Throughout the 90's a favorable rate Canadian dollar exchange rate compared to U.S. made Canada a destination of called value for money, or more value from tourist spending by visitor. This is a prized destination for over 50 years of age traveling without her children older. New York, Michingan and Washington are the main source markets. The large length of the border, as in the case of Mexico, allows the exchange from various points of both countries, which joined the agreement as "Open Skies" (elimination of air access restrictions) and the increase in more than 100 new flights that are distributed in a variety of routes. This meant that in the period 1994-1997 led to an increase two million visitors and that this rate is maintained at the rate of growth of 300 000 tourists annually. After the events of 11-S traffic is reduced to 50% seriously affecting the Canadian tourism industry. Although it is expected that this situation stable throughout 2002, is the reminder that Canada's borders have been used in the past by terrorists to infiltrate U.S. territory, and therefore which this country has strengthened border control and tripled the number of agents located in the 5 000-mile border between the two countries. Howsoever Canada is virtually a domestic destination for U.S. residents, their travel patterns are very similar to of tourism itself. This meant, in the year indicated a major weight on leisure travel (7.6 million), a balance between trips to visit family / friends (2.3 million) those for business (2.1 million) and to a lesser extent for other purposes.

The number of people traveling abroad has increased in recent years. Vaccination is a way to prevent rare diseases or non-existent in our area and can be obtained by traveling to certain countries. Many of these vaccines and preventive medications are administered in sufficient time before departure, to be effective. The prevention recommendations vary depending on your destination.
Does it come out on the road?
Is not the same go south of France to the heart of Africa. See our section ' Travel Medicine 'to take appropriate precautions.
Travel must be planned in advance, so that we can tell the doctor what will be our destination, type of trip (if it is organized or individual), where we stay (and that risks will be different if it is a five star hotel or a remote village), length of stay and other personal factors that may predispose to disease (age, certain pathological abnormalities).
In NetDoctor will know what shots are required before leaving on vacation. Furthermore, in NetDoctor find information about side effects, duration of protection and other relevant information for each vaccine. Obviously, in the case of pregnant women must take into account other rules. Mandatory vaccinations (such as the yellow fever ) are required to enter the country. Should be reflected in an international vaccination card signed and stamped, that we wear during the trip. They should also be administered in a vaccination recognized.
Common Drugs
It goes without saying that we should take our medicine sufficient standard for the entire trip. We must not forget to bring your doctor's instructions and the names of medicines. You have to read the side effects and factors that may favor their appearance. It is important, for example, know the possible side effects triggered by sun exposure. The most essential medicines should be at hand, especially the insulin in the case of diabetics. Should be distributed in different baggage go astray if any bag or suitcase.
The kit
Unfortunately, we can never be sure no accidents or other mishaps. Therefore always good to have on hand a remedy to relieve minor problems such as headaches, diarrhea or symptoms of insect bites. It should be a complete list of everything that we carry in the kit during the holidays.
When traveling to certain places, will be added to the kit needed medication against malaria . In some countries there may be unpleasant for the wearing in the kit with needles and certain drugs (eg, tranquilizers and sleeping pills) that require a certificate from the ministry officials. It is therefore advisable to ask the physician a written report in English, French and Spanish, which justifies the medicine we need and has been prescribed by a physician.
Sunscreens
The wonderful feeling of the sun's rays back to life in the pale winter skin may be dangerous without adequate protective measures. In Spain, we enjoy an enviable sun, so we all know, to a greater or lesser extent, annoying, even painful as that may be his burns. However, while hot, is not the same as the Balearic sunshine to the tropical sun, which can cause serious burns quickly. It is so difficult to enjoy the sun in a healthy and safe. NetDoctor provides essential guidelines for enjoying the sun in peace.
Diseases
Contracting the diseases that travelers are not usually serious. But can become complicated when we are away from a medical center or understand the language of the country. When planning a long vacation, there is usually no trouble getting a doctor to prescribe the drugs needed for emergency treatment of common conditions, eg sore throat , headaches, colds , constipation and traveler's diarrhea .
When there is a trip never to forget other dangers such as AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases . It is important to take necessary preventive measures (condom use). Be sure to read the articles on AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases more common: chlamydia , genital warts , gonorrhea .
The list of things to bring
Travel insurance and proof of insurance
Driving license
Money
Passport. Are children included in the passport? Check the expiry date and the need for appropriate visas.
Carry copy of passport, driving license, etc., In a place other than the original.

What are dental abscesses?
Are pockets of purulent material (pus), which are formed in the vicinity of a tooth becomes infected. They are accompanied by pain and severe inflammation of the area, appearing when more severe fever.

Why are dental abscesses?
They are usually caused by decay of the tooth-destroying or infection of the pulp cavity of a tooth (pulpitis). The germs of the oral cavity and multiply accumulate in the cavities or within the affected tooth, spreading throughout the nearby area. At this time the area will appear swollen and sore, and if treated properly, there will be a serious infection.
The body attempts to defend against this infection fighting germs , resulting in the formation of pockets of pus.
What I can do to prevent dental abscesses?
Knowing that dental abscesses are mainly due to caries and pulpitis, the best way to prevent it:

Keep your teeth and gums, to get attempt to limit the consumption of sweet foods and liquids at meal times (avoid sticky sweets, because they stick to the tooth).
Always brush your teeth after meals, using a fluoride toothpaste.
Use dental floss to clean the spaces between the teeth or interdental brushes instead (always according to the recommendations of your dentist.)
If a tooth has decay or pain, we must seek the advice of the dentist to treat, and prevent dental abscesses.
Go to your dentist regularly for check-ups and, if necessary, treat any problems so early.
People with diseases that weaken their defenses ( AIDS ) or those in general that the infection can become more serious ( diabetes ) should pay particular attention to their teeth to prevent major infections originating in this area.
What I can do if I have a dental abscess?
The first thing is to go to a dentist, who will try to drain the pus accumulated potent antibiotic treatment guidelines and then assess the potential to save the piece that caused the infection. If any of the following symptoms, the infection can be serious and should consult with a maxillofacial surgeon:
High fever
Pus through the skin of the face
Great swelling of the face, being more serious when it affects the neck
Inflammation of the tongue or under it
Difficulty or inability to open mouth
Difficulty or inability to swallow
Shortness of breath.
How are dental abscesses?
Sometimes tooth abscesses are broken, leaving the pus into the mouth or skin, if not the dentist or oral surgeon must make an incision (cut) to remove the pus.
Then, if the size of the abscess require it to place a drainage tube (usually rubber or sheet) that serves to facilitate the discharge of pus that forms to the complete cure of the infection.
You need a potent antibiotic, usually oral (in severe cases, intravenous)
Never should we start our own antibiotic treatment, should always be supervised by a specialist who knows the most suited to our needs according to the type of infection.
No antibiotic treatment should be stopped despite improvement of symptoms, because germs can become resistant to this drug, being ineffective at other times when we need to use it for other infections.
By rinsing with warm water and salt (a heaping teaspoon per cup) about 15-20 times a day for about a minute.
Maintaining good oral hygiene by brushing after meals with fluoride toothpaste.
Take painkillers or anti-inflammatory as directed by the specialist, and not according to our needs, because to be effective pain relievers should be taken at regular intervals without waiting for the pain begins.
If the tooth is causing the abscess can be treated by the dentist performed a root canal (filled with the pulp cavity of the tooth), if foci of infection persist in the vicinity of the tooth (mandible, maxilla, maxillary sinus, etc.) Will the surgeon who performed a surgical scrub.
If, however, the tooth can not be treated as being too damaged, should be removed as soon as possible because that is the source of infection. This tooth extraction can be performed once the patient is taking antibiotics.
What can happen if I try a dental abscess?
Dental abscesses are infections that are located in the vicinity of teeth in poor condition, but sometimes more often than we think, can be extended.
May spread to the cheek, maxillary sinus (which may cause sinusitis ), nasal passages, under the tongue and neck among others.
A tooth infection can be transformed, to spread, serious illness that threatens our lives. Therefore, we must take care of our teeth our dentist regularly going to avoid getting into these situations.

What is type 1 diabetes?
Diabetes type 1 or IDDM (insulin dependent diabetes mellitus or insulin-dependent) is a chronic disease of the pancreas which destroys insulin-producing cells. All body cells require insulin (a hormone that is released in response to the increase in the amount of glucose, a sugar in the blood) for glucose to enter body cells, especially in the liver. If the amount of insulin the pancreas is insufficient, glucose accumulates in the blood. When the amount of glucose exceeds a certain limit are eliminated by the kidney and also appears in the urine (this is called glucosuria).
The aim of insulin therapy is to control the amount of glucose (sugar) levels so that their levels are as close to normal.

Type 1 diabetes can occur at any age but usually begins in childhood and adolescence. All patients with type 1 diabetes need to inject insulin to prevent complications caused by the lack of this hormone.
What are the symptoms of type 1 diabetes?
Extreme thirst and hunger continues
Increased urination
Fatigue
Weight loss (although usually increased appetite)
Pruritus (itching), especially in the genital area
Recurrent infections of the skin, vagina and cystitis
If any other member of your family have diabetes and you have any of the above symptoms continuously, it is important to see your doctor to check for diabetes. Immediate relatives (siblings or children) of patients with type I diabetes are between 5% and 10% chance of developing it.
What is the treatment of type 1 diabetes?
Diabetes is treated:
Insulin injections
Staying physically active and exercising regularly
Maintaining a stable weight
Wearing a proper diet to control the amounts of carbohydrates, fat and protein you eat
The aim of insulin therapy is to control the amount of glucose (sugar) levels so that their levels are as close to normal. Insulin doses must be tailored to the needs of each patient. The process begins with the first injection of insulin and must be accompanied by a diet to include quantities and correct types of food as well as an exercise program.

Learn to measure glucose in blood and check it regularly. The apparatus to measure blood glucose is very important to you, letting you know that has glucose in the blood and adjust insulin doses.
Try to stick to the diet for diabetics as thoroughly as possible.
Learn how to inject insulin. You will need the rest of his life.
Always carry glucose or sugar by hand for the treatment of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Sometimes, when hypoglycemia is severe, you may need an injection of glucagon (a hormone with the opposite effect to insulin).
See your doctor regularly to adjust the insulin dose and schedule revisions to the eyes, kidneys and feet and watch for any sign of long-term complications of diabetes. It is also important to periodically check the figures for blood pressure , cholesterol , triglycerides and creatinine.
Call your doctor if it gets really sick, especially if you have high fever or acetone in the urine or if you are diagnosed with other illnesses.
Take a "record of blood glucose" to record glucose levels, which can then help your doctor to adjust the treatment to their own characteristics.
Physical Activity
Exercise is highly recommended. However, be aware that you may need to adjust insulin doses based on the exercise you have done or plan to do. If you get the same dose of insulin and exercise much glucose can get too and hypoglycaemia.
Eat a healthy diet
A healthy and balanced diet that is low in animal fats and high in carbohydrates (like pasta, rice, potatoes or vegetables) is very important. Try eating the same amount of carbohydrates every day. You should also try to make three large meals and two to three snacks a day.

Prevention of diabetic retinopathy
Involvement of the retina of the eye in patients with diabetes mellitus (diabetic retinopathy) is the most common cause of new cases of blindness among adults 20 to 75 years of age. For the first twenty years of the disease, almost all Type 1 diabetic patients and more than 60% of patients with type 2 diabetes develop this serious complication. In the diabetic group in which the disease appears earlier ( type 1 ), 85% of cases of blindness has been attributed to diabetic retinopathy. In diabetes type 2 (in which diabetes appears later, after 40 years), one third of cases of legal blindness (even with some level of vision, someone unable to work) has been attributed to diabetic retinopathy.

What is diabetic retinopathy?
Diabetic retinopathy is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by the appearance of small dilations in the tiny microscopic blood vessels that supply the retina or innermost membrane of the eye, hemorrhages, exudates, abnormal veins and growth of new blood vessels in the membrane and the posterior surface of the vitreous that fills the eye.
Vision loss that occurs in this complication is the result of several mechanisms of action.
Risk Factors
The main risk factors include age, duration of diabetes mellitus and degree of control, high blood pressure and excess cholesterol in the blood.
The duration of diabetes is probably the most powerful predictor for the development and progression of retinopathy. The degree of control of blood sugar has been implicated in numerous scientific studies as one of the main factors, some studies that used an intensive treatment of diabetes with insulin showed a significant reduction in the risk of retinopathy.
The protective effect of good blood sugar control has also been confirmed in patients with type 2 diabetes. A major study conducted in the UK 6 years ago showed that improved blood sugar control reduced the risk of developing retinopathy and nephropathy (kidney involvement), and possibly neuropathy (nerve involvement) . The overall complication rate of small blood vessels was reduced 25% in patients receiving intensive treatment versus those who received conventional treatment.
This important study also showed that tight control of blood pressure in these patients reduced progression of diabetic retinopathy and the risk of deterioration of visual acuity and reduce deaths related to diabetes and stroke.
Measures to prevent diabetic retinopathy
Interventions that have shown benefit in preventing diabetic retinopathy are:
Good control of diabetes
comprehensive control of hypertension
quit
laser photocoagulation in patients with early-stage lesions.
Laser photocoagulation has proved effective to significantly reduce severe vision loss and slow the progression of retinopathy. It is a technique that involves the destruction of new blood vessels formed in the retina or vitreous hemorrhage by administration of multiple shots of a laser beam. Unfortunately, despite its effectiveness, this technique does not return the hearing loss.
It is very important to consider that diabetic retinopathy occurs with little or no visual or ophthalmic symptoms until vision loss occurs. Since this treatment is to prevent such loss and retinopathy may be asymptomatic, it is essential to identify and treat these patients early, early in the disease. To achieve this goal, diabetic patients should be routinely evaluated to detect the disease at a stage that can be treated.
In this connection it is interesting to follow these recommendations:
Patients with type 1 diabetes should be examined by an ophthalmologist between 3 and 5 years after being diagnosed with the disease.
Patients with type 2 diabetes should be evaluated by an ophthalmologist as soon as possible after diagnosis.
All diabetic patients should be examined annually by an ophthalmologist with expertise in the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy. If cases of progressive retinopathy, checks should be made more frequently.
Because pregnancy is a factor that may accelerate the progression of diabetic retinopathy, diabetic women who become pregnant should be examined by an ophthalmologist in the first trimester of pregnancy and periodically during treatment.
It should begin treatment with laser photocoagulation in diabetic patients type 2 diabetic retinopathy lesions in early stages to prevent the progression of complications and blindness.

Overview of insulin treatment
People with type 1 diabetes require insulin injections to survive. Without insulin, the body can not use glucose (sugar), it rises in the blood and the cells begin to burn fat for energy. A few days later, developed a condition called diabetic ketoacidosis , which can be fatal if not treated properly.
The type of insulin used varies with the number of injections that the patient receives daily.

On the other hand, too much insulin lowers blood glucose ( blood sugar ), causing a condition known as hypoglycemia . Hypoglycemia is characterized by symptoms such as paleness, tremors, chills, sweating, palpitations, hunger, anxiety and blurred vision. In some cases, the patient may become unconscious (hypoglycaemic coma) or develop seizures.
Approximately 25% of patients with type 2 diabetes also need to inject insulin. In this case, treatment is not necessary to live, but it can improve patient comfort. The longer a person suffering from Type 2 diabetes, the greater the likelihood of needing insulin.
Insulin
There are basically four types of insulin:
Rapid-acting insulin (regular insulin or short-acting): their activity lasts 4 to 6 hours.
Intermediate-acting insulin (NPH) activity takes between 10 and 14 hours.
Long-acting insulin (lente insulin): their activity as long as 24 hours.
Biphasic insulins (regular insulin mixtures and insulin intermediate in different proportions, eg 30/70, 50/50, etc.).
Forms of insulin
The type of insulin used varies with the number of injections that the patient receives daily.
Once a day, slow-acting insulin in the morning, before breakfast.
Twice a day, intermediate (NPH) or biphasic, before breakfast and dinner.
Four times a day short-acting insulin before breakfast, lunch and dinner, and insulin intermediate-acting or slow acting, before going to bed.
Insulin pump: insulin is given continuously through a needle inserted under the skin. Additional doses are also given for meals.
Treatment with one or two daily injections are used primarily in patients with type 2 diabetes and occasionally in children. The treatment with four daily injections are used mainly in patients with type 1 or young people with type 2 diabetes. The infusion pump therapy is used very rarely and mostly in younger patients.
Most diabetics administer insulin with disposable pens or vials which are inserted into refillable injection pens. Needles can be 8, 12 or 16 mm long, the most used are those of 8 mm.

Insulin injection
The body quickly absorbs the insulin when injected subcutaneously (under the skin) injections are usually given in the upper arm, thigh, buttocks or abdomen, changing with each dose the injection site .
Insulin should be pricked in the abdomen by rotating the injection site, ie, no pricking twice in the same place. If for any reason can not punctured in the abdomen, you can do in the arms or thighs, but in these places the absorption and insulin action is irregular.
To prick, take a small fold of skin between your fingers clean and disinfect it with alcohol, insert needle at an angle of 45 degrees, and inject the right amount of insulin. Then remove the needle slowly and release the skin fold.
Recent research on inhaled insulin (thus removing the sting), with promising results, but are not yet available.
What can make the patient diabetic?
Learn to mix right from the start, taking manual carefully nurse.
Learn to recognize the warning signs of hypoglycemia and how to treat, taking sugar to raise your blood glucose level (should take about 10 grams of sugar, or glucose tablets).
Measure your blood sugar every day, to know how your body reacts to eating, exercise and changes in insulin doses. It is the only way to get used to control blood glucose.
Pay attention to your doctor to teach you how to adjust insulin doses to their needs. Over time, you yourself know enough about your illness and the reactions of his body to do it himself.
Good advice
Dose should be increased short-acting insulin when the patient:
Eat more than usual.
Exercise less than usual.
Conversely, use less short-acting insulin when the patient:
Eat less.
Get more exercise.
No adjustments must be made within the limits of long-acting insulin by alterations in a single measure of blood sugar (for example, if sugar is high only once), because a change in dose of this type does not alter insulin levels glucose in the body immediately, but exerts its effect on glycemia in the longer term.
People with type 1 diabetes require insulin injections to survive. Without insulin, the body can not use glucose (sugar), it rises in the blood and the cells begin to burn fat for energy. A few days later, developed a condition called diabetic ketoacidosis , which can be fatal if not treated properly.
The type of insulin used varies with the number of injections that the patient receives daily.

On the other hand, too much insulin lowers blood glucose ( blood sugar ), causing a condition known as hypoglycemia . Hypoglycemia is characterized by symptoms such as paleness, tremors, chills, sweating, palpitations, hunger, anxiety and blurred vision. In some cases, the patient may become unconscious (hypoglycaemic coma) or develop seizures.
Approximately 25% of patients with type 2 diabetes also need to inject insulin. In this case, treatment is not necessary to live, but it can improve patient comfort. The longer a person suffering from Type 2 diabetes, the greater the likelihood of needing insulin.
Insulin
There are basically four types of insulin:
Rapid-acting insulin (regular insulin or short-acting): their activity lasts 4 to 6 hours.
Intermediate-acting insulin (NPH) activity takes between 10 and 14 hours.
Long-acting insulin (lente insulin): their activity as long as 24 hours.
Biphasic insulins (regular insulin mixtures and insulin intermediate in different proportions, eg 30/70, 50/50, etc.).
Forms of insulin
The type of insulin used varies with the number of injections that the patient receives daily.
Once a day, slow-acting insulin in the morning, before breakfast.
Twice a day, intermediate (NPH) or biphasic, before breakfast and dinner.
Four times a day short-acting insulin before breakfast, lunch and dinner, and insulin intermediate-acting or slow acting, before going to bed.
Insulin pump: insulin is given continuously through a needle inserted under the skin. Additional doses are also given for meals.
Treatment with one or two daily injections are used primarily in patients with type 2 diabetes and occasionally in children. The treatment with four daily injections are used mainly in patients with type 1 or young people with type 2 diabetes. The infusion pump therapy is used very rarely and mostly in younger patients.
Most diabetics administer insulin with disposable pens or vials which are inserted into refillable injection pens. Needles can be 8, 12 or 16 mm long, the most used are those of 8 mm.

Insulin injection
The body quickly absorbs the insulin when injected subcutaneously (under the skin) injections are usually given in the upper arm, thigh, buttocks or abdomen, changing with each dose the injection site .
Insulin should be pricked in the abdomen by rotating the injection site, ie, no pricking twice in the same place. If for any reason can not punctured in the abdomen, you can do in the arms or thighs, but in these places the absorption and insulin action is irregular.
To prick, take a small fold of skin between your fingers clean and disinfect it with alcohol, insert needle at an angle of 45 degrees, and inject the right amount of insulin. Then remove the needle slowly and release the skin fold.
Recent research on inhaled insulin (thus removing the sting), with promising results, but are not yet available.
What can make the patient diabetic?
Learn to mix right from the start, taking manual carefully nurse.
Learn to recognize the warning signs of hypoglycemia and how to treat, taking sugar to raise your blood glucose level (should take about 10 grams of sugar, or glucose tablets).
Measure your blood sugar every day, to know how your body reacts to eating, exercise and changes in insulin doses. It is the only way to get used to control blood glucose.
Pay attention to your doctor to teach you how to adjust insulin doses to their needs. Over time, you yourself know enough about your illness and the reactions of his body to do it himself.

Diabetic ketoacidosis is an acute complication of diabetes that can endanger life and usually seen in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 (insulin-dependent diabetes). It is characterized by the presence of unacceptably high blood glucose (hyperglycaemia), ketones in the urine and certain acids in the blood. Ketone bodies are elements of metabolism that the body uses when you need to make energy for escape routes. This sometimes occurs with diabetes, this disease because glucose does not reach where you have to reach the liver, primarily, so it can be transformed into energy, hence the accumulation of glucose in the blood.
Patients with diabetic ketoacidosis require, in most cases, hospital care for treatment with fluids and intravenous insulin. If we also detected the presence of infection, antibiotic treatment is also needed. Diabetic ketoacidosis can often be avoided through proper treatment of type 1 diabetes.
What is the cause of diabetic ketoacidosis?
Ketoacidosis is always due to a fault, absolute or relative, of the action of insulin. In people with known diabetes, the cause of decompensation of diabetes is often the omission of the dose of insulin . Infections of any kind can also lead to diabetic ketoacidosis.
The main function of insulin is to reduce concentrations of blood glucose , but also reduces the metabolism of body fat, that is, makes it "burn" less fat. If you lack insulin in the body, raising the concentration of glucose in the blood and, if the amount of insulin is reduced significantly, the body begins to burn fat in an uncontrolled way. Excess blood glucose is accompanied by an appearance of glucose in the urine. Also elevated in the blood and urine ketones, acidic substances that produce a reduction in blood pH (metabolic acidosis). The body tries to compensate for acidosis by more frequent and deeper breaths with which remove excess acid. At the same time, removing large amounts of glucose in urine is associated with a significant removal of water and mineral salts, so that the patient is at high risk of dehydration.
What are the symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis?
Since diabetic ketoacidosis is usually associated with unacceptably high blood glucose, the symptoms are the same as those of diabetes:
Increased thirst
Increased urination
Fatigue
Confusion
Possible unconsciousness.
May also occur symptoms of ketoacidosis, such as:

Rapid deep breathing
Acetone smelling breath
Nausea, vomiting and stomach pain.
Diabetic ketoacidosis is often triggered by another disorder, usually by an infectious disease. Can arise in a period of few hours, or they develop over several days.
Self-help methods
Above all, the most important thing is to avoid the occurrence of diabetic ketoacidosis. This can be achieved by strictly controlling blood glucose levels. If glycemic control is carried out regularly, you will notice any abnormal elevation.
It is particularly important to measure blood glucose levels when a person with diabetes is not well.
If glucose levels are too high, then they must also measure ketones in the urine. To do this, there are test strips according to the color mark the introduction into urine, give us an idea of the amount of ketones present. Remember that the test strips to measure urine ketones expire quickly, so they will not be reliable if they are expired. If you detect ketones in the urine and glucose levels in the blood are too high, you should consult with a physician indicating the most appropriate treatment for each patient.
Diabetic ketoacidosis is often triggered by an infection, usually the urinary tract or respiratory tract .
A frequent combination is that of a stomach infection (gastritis) and ketoacidosis. Usually causes nausea, vomiting and loss of appetite, suggesting that the patient needs less insulin. However, during a serious illness, especially in case of infections with fever, almost always need more insulin. In fact, the administration of a lower dose of insulin when you need more because of an infection can quickly trigger diabetic ketoacidosis.
It is therefore critical that people with diabetes to determine their blood glucose levels if they are sorry for any reason or have any other disease. If blood glucose is high, management should be an extra dose of insulin and continuing tight control of blood glucose values.

How do you know if a status of diabetic ketoacidosis?
The diagnosis of diabetic ketoacidosis is made:
Measuring glucose in blood (glycaemia). Generally the figures are double the normal, but may be even higher.
Measuring glucose in the urine (glucosuria). Keep in mind, however, that the measurement of glucose in urine is less accurate than measuring glucose in the blood.
Extracting a blood sample from an artery to measure blood pH, ie, the "acidity" of the body.
At the same time the doctor will look for signs of infection.
How is diabetic ketoacidosis and what medications are used?
Generally for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis, the patient should be admitted to hospital. In some patients need admission to an intensive care unit. Treatment consists of:
Intravenous fluids. At first they used saline and dextrose later.
Insulin administered as an intravenous infusion.
Potassium supplements added to the infusion.
Antibiotics if an infection is found.

Exercise
Some diabetic patients believe that exercise will prevent having high levels of blood glucose and ketones in the urine. But really, in a state of diabetic ketoacidosis exercise can worsen the situation. Diabetic ketoacidosis is due to reduced insulin levels and should be treated with insulin.
What is the prognosis?
If ketoacidosis is diagnosed early and treatment begins early, the patient usually recovers completely within a few days. If not treated promptly ketoacidosis may endanger life.

What is the hemoglobin A1C test?
It is a simple laboratory test that indicates the average amount of sugar that has been in his blood during the last 3 months.
Why should I submit to a test of hemoglobin A1C?
Because it is the best test for your doctor know if your blood sugar is controlled plasma. This test indicates if the plasma glucose is near normal or too high.
What is the appropriate level of hemoglobin A1C?
The normal value for people with diabetes is less than 7 percent. In general, their treatment needs to be modified if the test result is over 8 percent.
How often do I need this test?
Ask your doctor or health care professional that you get tested at least twice a year. Ask about the A1C test and what the outcome of the application.
What is the prick test fingertip?
The prick test fingertip used to determine plasma sugar at that particular time using a blood glucose meter.
It is a simple test you can be done using a glucose meter to monitor changes in plasma sugar. The prick test fingertip tells what level of sugar in the blood at the time of the test.
Why should I have this test?
The determination of glucose using a plasma glucose meter helps you see how food, exercise and diabetes medicine affect your blood sugar level.
The readings obtained from these tests will help control your diabetes daily or even hourly. Keep a record of test results and review with your doctor or healthcare professional.
What is the appropriate figure for this test?
The figures are ideal for most people with diabetes que.usan plasma glucose meter are:
Before meals: 80 to 120 mg / dl
At bedtime: 100 to 140 mg / dl
His figures of sugar may be different from these ideal levels. Ask your doctor what numbers are best for you.
How often should I have this test?
The prick test fingertip is usually done before meals and at bedtime. Ask your doctor about how often you should test your blood sugar. You need both tests to fully assess blood sugar control.
Check your blood sugar
Talk to your doctor about your sugar levels for the case of the hemoglobin A1C test and prick your fingertip.
Eat right foods, exercise and take medications prescribed to control your blood sugar.

What is cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a waxy substance your body uses to protect nerves, make cell tissues and produce certain hormones. The liver makes all the cholesterol your body needs. Cholesterol can also come directly from the food you eat, for example eggs, meat and dairy products. Too much cholesterol can have a negative impact on their health.
Back
Why a high cholesterol level unhealthy?
Although some cholesterol is necessary for good health, too much cholesterol in your blood can increase your risk of having a heart attack or stroke (embolism).
The excess cholesterol in your blood can be stored in your arteries, ie the blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to the rest of your body. The accumulation of cholesterol in your arteries is known as plaque. This will cause your arteries to narrow and harden which is known as arteriosclerosis. Large deposits of cholesterol can completely block an artery. Cholesterol plaques also may crack causing the formation of a blood clot that blocks blood flow.
If an artery that supplies blood to the muscles of your heart is blocked it can cause a heart attack (myocardial infarction). If an artery that supplies blood to your brain becomes blocked, a stroke can occur also called stroke.

Recognition of liabilities and assets
Robert Kiyosaki explains in almost each of his book, what they mean either concept. Particularly interesting means to learn to distinguish the two things is his game "Money Flows 101", which revolves around the topic.
In brief: liability is anything that earns money from our pockets and the assets is all that money there pockets.
In other words your home is a liability because it makes each month to pay bills, taxes and so on. This is a different formulation of the general adoption, but it is important to understand the difference. Only when we are fully aware of what is a liability and what is an asset, we can see real assets and invest there.
I've always loved examples: Buying a computer is a liability (just property), which makes you pay bill online, but at least entertain you. If you do sell and server hosting service, the computer becomes an asset that every month introduced money in your account. Or if you use your computer to learn, to participate in a webinar-and participate in groups for business or looking for information, then it becomes an asset as opposed to liability if you just watch movies and play games.
Mystery of God is that they learn to turn liabilities into assets, realizing the difference. Spend their money in buying and developing assets, given that everything can be both passive and active.
Reading the financial data and reports
There is no way to identify whether an investment opportunity is an asset or liability, if you can not determine whether scoring or earning money from your pocket.
Financial report includes "Statement of income and expenditure, which in itself means nothing if it does not have to balance assets and liabilities. The only way to find out whether an investment is profitable or unprofitable.
Learning to read financial reports in one day! You do not need to be a god himself accounting and I can generate a report with all bills, so I can read it. Similarly, I can not straighten his car and, although I am a good driver. Things are very simple. If you pay all the costs and left money on turnover, profit then I say It is an asset. It may be a great asset or a small asset, but something enter into my pocket.
There is separation and one (1) hour to read and with the law. What company is registered, VAT registration, corporate income taxes. That's it!
Important skill that we learn to realize the opportunities
Finding funds
Money is always there! Banks make money. Investors or business angels make money. Friends and relatives give money. Partners, suppliers and customers can also credited the business.
Again, the secret is to convince them that this is an asset, using the statement of income and expenditure and balance sheet.

Purely statistical, recognize when opportunity and bring it in the form of financial data (more precisely, do a good business plan), finding the money was for week two. So we need to seek funds bnaki known, other investors and suppliers.
Absorption and implementation of the idea (project or investment)
This is somewhat creative process. An important condition to have learned everything possible in terms of investment. This process is inevitable even when writing a business plan and demand money. So in all we have homework and you should look for and find people. This skill comes with practice. However, there are agencies that can help in the selection.
