Question Number 115
A client with type II diabetes arrives at the clinic with a blood glucose of 50 mg/dL. The nurse provides the client with 6 ounces of orange juice. In 15 minutes the client's capillary glucose is 74 mg/dL. What action should the nurse take?A) Obtain a specimen for serum glucose level. B) Administer insulin per sliding scale. C) Provide cheese and bread to eat. D) Collect a glycosylated hemoglobin specimen.
Correct Answer(s): C* Once blood glucose is greater than 70 mg/dl, the client should eat a regularly scheduled meal or a snack to prevent hypoglycemia from recurring (C). Blood glucose has just been checked and a serum level is not indicated at this time (A). The blood glucose does not indicate a need for insulin (B) which may further exacerbate a hypoglycemic response. A glycosylated hemoglobin (hemoglobin A1C) level is not indicated at this time (D).
