DM type II: insulin

Medical Ward and nightshifts in residency.
As an MD, medical residency on South America, we still do more than 30 hours long wards with nightshifts were you can’t sleep more than 3-4 hours (even on your luckiest day) and usually more than one time a week on your first couple of years. As we all know we are talking of something that can’t be offset as it is sleeping, but at least I want to ask for all the things I can do to try to make up for some of it. Also If you can talk a little bit of the consequences of this chronic sleep deprivation for practitioners and most important for patients.
