Inzulinoterapie v léčbě diabetesmellitus 2. typu
Léčba by vždy měla vést k dosažení optimální kompenzace diabetu. Názory na léčbu inzulinemu pacientů s diabetes mellitus 2. typu nejsou vždy jednotné. Zatímco inzulinoterapie u diabetesmellitus 1. typu je nezpochybnitelná, u diabetu 2. typu je spojena s řadou možných problémůa z toho vyplývajících chyb. U těchto pacientů je vždy nutno pečlivě zvažovat celkový zdravotnístav pacienta a indikaci léčby inzulinem, to by však nemělo znamenat oddalování či nezahájeníléčby u indikovaných pacientů.Mnoho nemocných je k léčbě inzulinemindikováno i po krátkémtrvání diabetu pro selhání perorálních antidiabetik, pozdní komplikace či jiné důvody. Nelzezapomenout ani na nutnost selfmonitoringu a komplexní edukace těchto pacientů. Článekpodává jednoduchý přehled o indikacích a způsobech léčby inzulinemdiabetes mellitus 2. typu.

Overview
Treatment should always lead to optimal compensation of diabetes. Views regarding insulintreatment of patients with type 2 diabetes are not always uniform. While insulin therapy intype 1 diabetes is beyond doubt, in type 2 diabetes it is associated with a number of possibleproblems and errors ensuing from them. In these patients it is always necessary to considercarefully the general health status of patients and indication of insulin treatment but thisshould not imply postponement or abondonement of treatment in indicated patients. Somepatients are indicated for insulin treatment even after brief persistence of diabetes on accountof failure of oral antidiabetics, late complications or other reasons.We must not forget the needof self-monitoring and comprehensive education of these patients. The paper gives a briefaccount of indications and ways of insulin treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Key words:
