Chirónsalud in one once morest Diabetes.
The combination of technology and expertise.
5.1 million adults in Spain suffer from diabetes. With a diabetes prevalence of 14.8%, Spain has the second highest rate in Europe. With this in mind, Quirónsalud has created a specialized team to treat diabetes cases with world-class professionals and state-of-the-art technology. Dr. José Alejandro Medina, specialist in internal medicine at Quirónsalud Tenerife, explains that diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by increased glucose (sugar) in the blood. Insufficient insulin production or inefficient use of the insulin produced leads to problems in blood sugar levels and other related complications. An illness with consequences.
Diabetes is a leading cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, strokes and limb amputations in Spain. “Poorly controlled diabetes significantly increases the risk of these complications and premature mortality,” said Dr. Medina. In addition, the risk of cardiovascular disease increases, especially if control is poor. The disease also increases the risk of dementia, depression, bone diseases such as osteoporosis, and skin, mouth and dental problems.
Quirónsalud Tenerife sees diabetes not just as an isolated disease, but as part of a complex clinical picture with various symptoms that requires comprehensive care by first-class professionals and the most modern diagnostic and treatment technologies. Inheritance of diabetes and preventive measures Type 1 diabetes is an insulin-dependent autoimmune disease that mainly occurs in children and adolescents. The cause is insufficient insulin production, which requires daily insulin administration. In contrast, type 2 diabetes, the non-insulin-dependent form, is the most common. 90% of cases occur in adulthood and result from ineffective use of insulin by the body. Type 2 diabetes can be inherited, although environmental factors also play a role. People with a family history of the disease are at higher risk of developing the disease. Regular checks, blood sugar analyzes and specialist care are crucial to maintaining the health of diabetics and preventing complications in various organs.
Diabetes and Obesity The close connection between obesity and diabetes is called “diabesidad”. Obesity causes blood sugar to rise and forces the pancreas to secrete more insulin to lower blood sugar levels. As a result, insulin can no longer regulate glucose, leading to hyperglycemia and diabetes. Quirónsalud Tenerife has positioned itself as a pioneer in diabetes care by not only understanding the disease but treating it as part of a complex health condition. Continuous monitoring and prevention through regular health checks, blood sugar measurements and specialist care are crucial to intensify the fight once morest diabetes and its effects.
