Abstract

The purpose of the study was to bringout a conceptual framework in response to growing problem of diabetes in school children. Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases of childhood, and monitoring trends in diabetes diagnoses is a difficult but important challenge. Unlike many other childhood diseases, there is no national reporting system to track diabetes, and early studies that were conducted on youth did not represent the diverse population that exists in the India today. In type 1 diabetes,the pancreas stopsmaking insulin.With type 1 diabetes,you need to get insulin from a shot or apump.Type 1 used to be called “insulindependent”or “juvenile diabetes.” In type 2 diabetes,the pancreas stillmakes some insulin but the cells can’t use it very well.Type 2 used to be called“adult onset diabetes”but now more kids are getting type 2. The key to taking care of diabetes is to keep your blood glucose as close to normal as possible.The best way is to eat healthy foods,get exerciseevery day,stay at a healthy weight,take your medicine,and check your blood glucose to see how you aredoing.Kids with type 2 diabetes may need to take insulin or pills to help thebody’s supply of insulin work better.
