Complications of type2 diabetes. This video is in relation to complications of type2 diabetes. According to the world health organisation (WHO) figures, diabetes is predicted is the 7th leading reason behind death by 2030. At this time, diabetes ranks as the 8th leading killer in the world. Heart disease. The world health organisation research also concludes that cardiovascular disease is the cause of between 50% to 80% of deaths within the diabetic community. Therefore, based on 2004 figures of 374 million deaths by WHO is:- 1. 187 million deaths are recorded because of diabetes based on 50% death rate. 2. 299.2 million deaths due to heart disease on the higher percentage of 80% Stroke can be known as the brain attack. It occurs because the availability of blood to the main brain gets cut off resulting in loss of memory along with loss of other bodily processes like walking and talking. The risk of a stroke for someone with diabetes is 2 or 3 times higher and more likely. Kidney disease may affect anyone’s life across the ages. The communities very likely to develop kidney disease were sighted as African, American, Hispanic & American Indians. For the most part, there is high incidence of diabetes and high blood pressure amongst these groups. But, as the diabetes is on the increase across the world. The whole world is equally at risk of kidney disease/failure. Figures available suggest 44% of the people on dialysis are due to diabetes. Blindness. Diabetic retinopathy when the blood vessels in the retina are damaged causing loss of vision or blindness. 40% to 45% of the American diabetic population have some level of retinopathy requiring regular monitoring or treatment even. Laser treatment can help repair the burst blood vessels in the retina and restore back and reverse several of the damage. But laser treatment is very expensive and by virtue of that it is not available to everyone. With reference to blindness, people with diabetes are Ten to twenty times very likely to go blind than those without the condition. Amputations because of diabetes is most common. The 2010 data for UK below makes for a startling reading:- 1. 100 people every week lose a lower limb, toe or foot. 2. 1 in 20 diabetics develop foot ulcer. And, 1 in 10 ulcers lead to amputation. 3. Diabetics are 15 times prone to have a limb or toe amputated than those without diabetes. 4. 70% death rate within 5yrs post amputation. Finally, these figures can be a snapshot of the true devastation caused by diabetes. What is needed to counter-act the onslaught of this condition and its consequences is more education, more awareness and more care. What should you do? Well, get help, keep yourself well-informed, make yourself more aware, find out and stick to a tried and tested program.
