В данной статье представлены результаты маркетингового исследования фармацевтического рынка Республики Казахстан по изделиям медицинского назначения, в том числе глюкометрам и тест-полосам. Результаты исследования представлены в виде диаграммы и списка. Также приведены цены на глюкометры и тест-полоски, зарегистрированные в Казахстане и популярные по запросу. В связи с тем, что в настоящее время в нашей стране растет число людей, страдающих сахарным диабетом, проверка уровня сахара в крови является обязательной, но не всем больным доступны зарубежные глюкометры и тест-полоски для них, поэтому стране необходимо уделять больше внимания отечественному производству This article presents the results of a marketing study of the pharmaceutical market of the Republic of Kazakhstan on medical products, including glucose meters and test strips. The results of the study are presented in the form of a diagram and a list. Prices for blood glucose meters and test strips registered in Kazakhstan and popular on request are also shown. Due to the fact that currently the number of people suffering from diabetes is growing in our country, checking the blood sugar level is mandatory, but not all patients have access to foreign blood glucose meters and test strips for them, so the country needs to pay more attention to domestic production.

Background: Diabetes increases the risk of macrovascular complications and is often associated with angina in patient. Currently nicorandil, a potassium channel opener is being frequently used for the prevention and long-term treatment of angina pectoris. Glibenclamide exerts its antidiabetic action by closing the ATP sensitive potassium channels. Simultaneous use of nicorandil may antagonizes this action and may worsens the existing diabetes. To evaluate the pharmacodynamic interaction present study has been taken to study the effect of Nicorandil, a potassium channel opener on blood glucose level of alloxan induced diabetic rats and its pharmacodynamics interaction with Glibenclamide.Methods: Albino rats, weighing 150-200gm of male sex were used for the study. Diabetes was induced by injecting alloxan monohydrate 2% solution intra peritoneally in a dose of 150mg/kg body weight. Animal with Fasting Blood Sugar level between 250-300g/dl was selected for study and they were divided into 4 groups of 5 animals each. Group I- serving as control received 0.5ml normal saline orally for 28 days. Group II was given glibenclamide (0.5mg/kg body wt) for 28 days. Group III was treated orally with nicorandil (0.3mg/kg body wt) for 28 days. Group IV was given glibenclamide (0.5mg/kg) and nicorandil (0.3mg/kg) for 28 days. Fasting Blood Sugar level was recorded in all rats on 1st,3rd,7th,14th,21st and 28th day of the treatments.Results: results showed that glibenclamide significantly reduce blood sugar level (p <0.05) Wherase nicorandil showed rise in blood glucose level (p <0.05) While the combination (glibenclamide + nicorandil) showed rise in blood glucose (p <0.05) overall.Conclusions: Nicorandil worsen the existing diabetes and to be avoided or replaced with alternative drug in case of diabetes being treated with sulfonyl urease group of drugs.

ABSTRACTIntroduction: The examination of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) can be done by reviewing their complaints and through a capillary blood glucose level test to determine the value of their Random Blood Glucose Level. QRMA (Quantum Resonance Magnetic Analyzer) is claimed to be able to check the patient’s bodily condition (including blood glucose) with an accuracy of 85%. The purpose of this study was to verify the validity of the QRMA tool and its accuracy by comparing the results of the anamnesis and the examination conducted using the capillary blood glucose test method.Methods: The research method used was a cross-sectional design. The total sample consisted of 44 respondents in the working area of the Community Health Centers in Yogyakarta with the risk factor being blood sugar level instability. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The main variable in this study was the value of the blood sugar level measured based on the coefficient value of the QRMA tool and the value of Random Blood Glucose obtained through the capillary blood glucose test.Results: The blood glucose value was not correlated significantly with the coefficient value of QRMA. The value of blood glucose when examined alongside the result of the respondent's anamnesis showed there to be a significant difference. The value of the QRMA coefficient when examined against the results from the history of the respondents showed no significant difference. Linear regression showed that the variables of height, body weight, and IMT had a correlation with the QRMA coefficient value.Conclusion: The QRMA tool was not able to provide a picture of the actual condition of the blood glucose level of the respondents when compared with the results of the anamnesis and the blood glucose value from the capillary blood glucose test. Non-invasive health measurement devices such as QRMA are not used by nurses as a standard for determining the health status of DM patients.

Prevalence of diabetes mellitus in Riau have reached 10,4 %, it’s higher than national pravelence. Hence, it’s needmore attention from physician. The important thing in managing DM is how to restrain controlled blood sugar level.The best parameter to evaluate controlled blood sugar level is level of HbA1c. Fasting blood glucose is one ofimportant component which determine HbA1c especially HbA1c more than 8,5%. There are some pharmacologyagent to decrease HbA1c level, and insulin is the most effective agent. Why physician needs insulin?It was caused by impairment of betha cell pancreas was directly propotional with DM progressiveness. Comprehensionand capability for using basal insulin are important to physician, not only for internist but also for general practinioner.As we know that general practinioner have a competency to manage DM without complication. Guidance for usingsimple and practical basal insulin is expected will facilitate physician to manage blood sugar level of DM patient.

Background: Patients without a history of diabetes often develop hyperglycemia during an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Our aim was to evaluate the impact of admission hyperglycemia on in hospital outcome of non-diabetic patients admitted for acute coronary syndromes. Methods: The retrospective study was conducted in National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases among the patients with acute myocardial infarction without history of diabetes. 50 patients with ST elevation MI (STEMI) with complications, 50 patients with STEMI without complications, 50 patients with non-ST elevation MI (NSTEMI) with complications and 50 patients without complications were included in the study. Every patient got the treatment as per protocol of the institute. On admission blood glucose of the patients was recorded. Level of blood glucose was correlated with the frequency of complications. Results : Average on admission blood sugar level was higher in patients who developed complications with STEMI (11.4 vs 8.78 mmol/L). On admission blood sugar level was also significantly higher in patients with NSTEMI with complications (10.6 vs 8.6 mmol/L). The frequency of individual complications had no significant relation with the blood sugar level. Conclusion : Higher level of admission blood glucose is related to poor in hospital outcome in both STEMI & NSTEMI even in nondiabetic patients. It may be used as a predictor of poor outcome of patients with myocardial infarction. Keywords: STEMI; NSTEMI; Blood glucose. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cardio.v3i2.9183 Cardiovasc.

Blood sugar level is actually the estimation of the total glucose sugar content in the one’s blood. Insulin and Glucagon are the two key hormones responsible for maintaining homeostasis which sustain blood glucose level. Hypoglycemia and Hyperglycemia are the two conditions associated with blood sugar level. In case of hypoglycemia, blood glucose level falls below the normal level of glucose in the blood while hyperglycemia is the condition of elevated blood glucose level than the normal range. Different tests are available to test the blood glucose level of an individual. The central objective of this project was to assess the inter-connection between one’s being suriphobic and their blood sugar level at fasting. Phobia is a word associated with the condition of extreme fear from a series of specified events. Suriphobia or mice fear is the term used for those individuals who extremely fear from mice, rats, rodents etc. This study was a questionnaire based project to assess the fact that if there is any inter-connection between people’s being suriphobic and their blood glucose level at fasting. For this purpose blood sugar level of the sample population was calculated using Glucometer. Statistical Analysis point towards the significant results if this study as the calculated p-value was exact of the standard p¬-value which is p ≤ 0.05. Therefore, the fact that there is a significant relation between individual’s being Suriphobe and their Blood Glucose Level at fasting is proved.

Objective. In order to explore the application effect of blood glucose management mode of multi-team cooperation in perioperative period of general surgery patients. Methods. The perioperative blood glucose control of 94 patients undergoing surgical treatment in general surgery from January 2016 to March 2019 was reviewed by Non-synchronous. According to the perioperative blood glucose management model of multi-team cooperation, the patients were divided into intervention group and control group. From January 2016 to January 2018, 64 patients who did not implemented the multi-team blood glucose management model were the control group and from February 2018 to March 2019, 30 patients who implemented the multi-team blood glucose management model were the intervention group, compared with two group about the differences in perioperative blood glucose. Results. It is no statistically significant about two group in highest and lowest blood sugar levels under fasting stats; during the fluid diet the blood sugar level of the intervention group was lower than control group(P<0.05),and when the patients was in the semi-fluid or food-feeding period, the highest and lowest blood sugar level is that the intervention group was lower than control group(P<0.05). The time of the blood sugar reaching the standard, the coincidence of complications rate and average hospitalization days in the intervention group were particularly lower than control group(P<0.05). Conclusion. If we adopt multi-team blood glucose management model can better control the perioperative blood glucose of patients undergoing general sugar.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder in which there is increased blood sugar level, glycosuria, dyslipidemia and sometimes ketonemia occurs. Increased blood sugar level leads to characteristic symptoms such as polydipsia, polyurea, blurring of vision, polyphagia and weight loss.Methods: Healthy male Wister rats weighing between 150-250 gm were taken. Total 2 groups A and B were prepared and each group contains 6 animals. Group A was administered voglibose as 0.6 mg/70 kg body weight. Group B was administered vildagliptin as 100 mg/70 kg body weight. Diabetes was induced in group A and B by administration of 120 mg/kg body weight of nicotinamide and 60 mg/kg body weight of streptozocin intraperitoneally. Streptozocin was administered after 15-20 minutes of administration of nicotinamide. After 72 hours of streptozotocin injection, fasting blood glucose level was determined and induction of diabetes was confirmed. The fasting blood samples were collected from all the groups on further days 7, 14, 21 and 28 day to determine the glucose level by glucometer. Results: The decline in fasting blood sugar level by voglibose was 36.4% on day 7, 40.2% on day 14, 43.94% on day 21 and 46.4% on day 28. The reduction in Fasting blood sugar level by vildagliptin was 49% on day 7, 52.25% on day 14 and 54% on day 21 and 28. Thus in group B rats, decline was maximal on day 7 and little fall was recorded on subsequent days. It suggests good efficacy as vildagliptin normalized the blood glucose level effectively.  Conclusions: Vildagliptin was found significantly more effective in lowering fasting blood glucose level than voglibose.

atients with cardiovascular diseases need systematic monitoring of the main parameters of the cardiovascular system on an outpatient basis using special medical devices. The aim of the study is to conduct an assortment analysis of medical devices intended for use at home by patients with cardiovascular diseases. Materials and methods: The objects of the study were clinical recommendations for the treatment of diseases of the cardiovascular system (12); State Register of Medical Devices of the Russian Federation; Internet sites of pharmacy chains of the Republic of Tatarstan (5), sites of Internet pharmacies (1); data of the reference service “003” State Unitary Enterprise “Medical equipment and pharmacy of Tatarstan”. The work uses the methods of content analysis, logical, structural, graphic analysis. Price segmentation was carried out using the Sturgess grouping method. Results. An analysis of clinical guidelines for the prevention and treatment of diseases of the cardiovascular system was carried out to identify the main control parameters required on an outpatient basis. The groups of medical devices used by patients on their own have been determined: tonometers, pulse oximeters and diagnostic tests. The analysis of the State Register of Medical Products and Pharmacy Assortment of the Republic of Tatarstan was carried out in order to identify the availability of medical products to the population. Price segmentation of the studied groups of medical devices was carried out in order to determine consumer opportunities; the indicators of the completeness of the assortment were calculated. A wide range of tonometer models is presented in pharmacies of the Republic of Tatarstan. More than 60% of mechanical and automatic blood pressure monitors are in the low segment; the indicator of the completeness of the assortment Kp = 0.83, which allows satisfying the needs of patients. 50% of the assortment group “pulse oximeters” sold from pharmacies belongs to the low price segment; assortment completeness indicator Kp = 0.29. Diagnostic tests implemented in the Republic of Tatarstan are represented by express tests for the determination of ketones in blood and urine; assortment completeness indicator Kp = 0.31. The price segmentation of test systems is largely determined by the need to use additional instruments (analyzers). 75% of the total number of express tests presented on the pharmaceutical market of the Republic of Tatarstan belong to the middle price segment. Conclusions. As of March 2021, 950 medical devices used in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases were registered on the domestic market. At the same time, 22.6% can be used at home and are sold to the population by pharmacy organizations. For self-monitoring of indicators of the cardiovascular system on an outpatient basis, tonometers, test systems and heart rate monitors are used. Their share of the total number of registered medical devices used in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases is 17%. The price segmentation of the studied groups of medical devices indicates the availability of their purchase by customers with high and medium paying capacity. The prospects for expanding the range of medical products for independent use by patients with cardiovascular diseases in the regional pharmaceutical market have been identified.
