Acute and Chronic Care Management

Acute & Chronic Care Management — Accura Health
Chronic Condition

Diabetes Management

Diabetes is a chronic metabolic condition caused by insufficient insulin production or resistance. Without management, it can damage nerves, kidneys, eyes, and blood vessels. Type 1 is autoimmune; Type 2 is linked to genetics and lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are common symptoms?
Increased thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, and blurry vision.
How often should I check blood sugar?
Based on your treatment plan and insulin use.
Can prediabetes be reversed?
Lifestyle changes can effectively prevent progression.
Management Approach
  • A1c and glucose monitoring
  • Nutrition and activity plans
  • Oral and insulin therapy
  • Kidney, nerve, eye screening

Chronic Condition

Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)

Hypertension is persistent elevation of pressure against artery walls. Often silent, it increases risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, and vision loss. Primary hypertension has no single cause; secondary results from kidney or endocrine disorders.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes high blood pressure?
Genetics, diet, stress, inactivity, and underlying conditions.
Is hypertension curable?
It is typically managed long-term, not cured.
Do borderline levels need medication?
Depends on cardiovascular risk and progression.
Management Approach
  • Blood pressure monitoring
  • Dietary and sodium changes
  • Medication optimization
  • Kidney, heart, eye screening

Chronic Condition

Asthma

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway condition causing wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Airways overreact to allergens, irritants, cold air, or infections. During flare-ups, muscles tighten and mucus restricts airflow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What triggers asthma?
Allergens, pollution, cold air, exercise, and illness.
How often should I use a rescue inhaler?
Only during symptoms; frequent use signals poor control.
Can asthma resolve over time?
Symptoms may improve but long-term management continues.
Management Approach
  • Pulmonary function testing
  • Inhaler technique training
  • Controller and rescue plans
  • Flare-up action protocols

Chronic Condition

Heart Disease

Heart disease encompasses coronary artery disease, heart failure, arrhythmias, and structural abnormalities. Coronary artery disease occurs when plaque restricts blood flow to the heart. Risk factors include hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol, and smoking.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are early signs?
Chest discomfort, fatigue, shortness of breath, and swelling.
Should I be screened without symptoms?
Yes, especially with diabetes or hypertension risk.
Can lifestyle changes reverse it?
They improve heart function; medication often remains needed.
Management Approach
  • Cholesterol and cardiac tests
  • EKG and diagnostic testing
  • Blood pressure, lipid meds
  • Lifestyle and weight plans

Chronic Condition

High Cholesterol (Hyperlipidemia)

High cholesterol occurs when LDL, triglycerides, or total lipid levels exceed healthy limits. Elevated LDL promotes plaque buildup inside arteries, increasing heart attack and stroke risk. Factors include genetics, diet, metabolic conditions, and inactivity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is high cholesterol genetic?
Yes, hereditary lipid disorders are quite common.
Do I need medication if I eat well?
Many patients require both lifestyle changes and medication.
How often should levels be checked?
Every six to twelve months depending on risk.
Management Approach
  • Lipid panel monitoring
  • Nutrition and exercise plans
  • Statin and non-statin meds
  • Cardiovascular risk planning

Preventive Care

Eye Exams

Routine eye exams detect vision problems, retinal disease, and complications from conditions like diabetes and hypertension. Diabetes can cause retinopathy and macular edema; hypertension may lead to retinal damage. Annual exams catch problems early.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get an eye exam?
Annually, or sooner with diabetes or vision symptoms.
Why is it important for diabetics?
It detects early retinal damage before vision changes.
Can blood pressure affect vision?
Yes, through hypertensive retinopathy and optic changes.
Management Approach
  • Vision and retinal screening
  • Diabetic eye coordination
  • Ophthalmology specialist care
  • Visual symptom monitoring
