Surveys estimate that 25\u201340% of those living in the regions affected by hurricanes Katrina and Rita lived with at least one chronic disease. Chronic illness accounted for 33% of visits, peaking 10 days after hurricane landfall. The international nephrology community has responded to dialysis needs by forming a well-organized and effective organization called the Renal Disaster Relief Task Force (RDRTF). The response to the needs of diabetic and cardiac patients has been less vigorous.<\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>Patients must be familiar with emergency diet and renal fluid restriction plans, possible modification of dialysis schedules and methods, and rescue treatments such as the administration of kayexalate. Facilities may consider investing in water-independent extracorporeal dialysis techniques as a rescue treatment. In addition to patient databases and medical alert identification, diabetics should maintain an emergency medical kit. Diabetic patients must be taught and practice the carbohydrate counting technique. In addition to improved planning, responding agencies and organizations must bring adequate supplies and medications to care for diabetic, cardiac, and renal patients during relief efforts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1049023X00005835_sec05\" sec-type=\"conclusion\">\n                    <jats:title>\n                      <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold>\n                    <\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>By recognizing and addressing impediments to the care of chronic disease exacerbations after natural disasters, the quality, delivery, and effectiveness of the care provided to diabetic patients during relief efforts can be improved.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1049023x00005835","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,17]],"date-time":"2015-09-17T03:24:28Z","timestamp":1442460268000},"page":"185-194","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":121,"title":["Chronic Diseases and Natural Hazards: Impact of Disasters on Diabetic, Renal, and Cardiac Patients"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Andrew C.","family":"Miller","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bonnie","family":"Arquilla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1049023X00005835_ref044","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0895-7061(96)00328-7"},{"key":"S1049023X00005835_ref028","unstructured":"28.
