HHNKC is also known as diabetic hyperglycemic hyperosmolar coma (HHOC), hyperosmolar nonketotic coma (HONK), hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) or hyperosmolar hyperglycemic nonketotic syndrome (HHNS). In HHNKC, blood sugar levels rise, and your body tries to get rid of the excess sugar by passing it into your urine.
Pressures sores result from the death (necrosis) of tissues due to local deprivation of blood supply, and thus of oxygen (ischemic necrosis). This is why tissue compression is the first clinical sign of pressure sores; it blocks the small blood vessels supplying tissues.
High blood pressure is a common condition in which the long-term force of the blood against your artery walls is high enough that it may eventually cause health problems, such as heart disease.lood pressure is determined both by the amount of blood your heart pumps and the amount of resistance to blood flow in your arteries. The more blood your heart pumps and the narrower your arteries, the higher your blood pressure.
