USE THIS CASE FOR THE NEXT 3 QUESTIONS KE is a 25-year-old female who has had type 1 diabetes for 12 years. Her current diabetes regimen includes insulin degludec 16 units daily and insulin aspart 1:15 with meals plus 1 per 55 over 150 mg/dL. How many units of insulin aspart should KE administer to correct for a blood glucose reading of 230 mg/dL? KE is about to eat a meal that has 94 grams of carbs in it and her pre-prandial glucose is currently 345 mg/dL (goal = 150 mg/dL). How much insulin aspart should she administer for this meal?

How many grams of carbohydrates will 1 unit of insulin aspart cover for KE? What impact (in mg/dL) will 1 unit of insulin aspart have on lowering KE's blood glucose level? How many units of insulin aspart should KE administer to cover a meal that consists of 82 grams of carbohydrates?
USE THIS CASE FOR THE NEXT 3 QUESTIONS FH is a 23-year-old male who has had type 1 diabetes for 6 years. He is currently taking Novolin N 20 units BID and Humulin R 1:8 plus 1 per 25 over 120 mg/dL. How many grams of carbohydrates will 1 unit of insulin regular cover for FH? What impact (in mg/dL) will 1 unit of regular insulin have on lowering FH's blood glucose level?

Jesse comes to the medical office for pre-lunch check blood glucose of 210 MG/DL. lunch = 59 g, ISF = 1: 60 target of 120 mg/dL I:C =1:30. how much insulin should you administer using carb coverage and correction dose using ISF?
A 58-year women is unconscious and was taken to the nearest emergency room from her work place. Her blood glucose: 50 mg/dL. Her son explains that she was taking a new medication prescribed 3 week ago (once a day during breakfast) prescribed for her Type 2 diabetes. If this is a drug that commonly can cause hypoglycemia give your opinion to which class of drugs it may belong.
A laboratory result Shows a glucose level 10.1mg/dl ( reference range 3 - 6.2mg/dl) BP of 140/100 mmHg ( Reference 120/80 mmHg) Serum insulin 0.3 ( 0.7-3.5) BMI is 34kg/m sq Other findings seen was porous bone, muscle weakness and stretch marks, high appetite hyperpigmentation of the skin.

Insulin Lispro subcutaneously for a patient weight 80 kg for 1 month of treatment. Daily dose of insulin is 1 Unit/kg and 60% in short acting, given 4 times per day; ampoules in form of personal injectors (300 Units/3ml). (I would like to figure out the number of personal injector needed for 1 month.) My answer: Daily dose (DD) for a 80 kg patient = 80 x 1 Unit = 80 U 60% is short acting, so DD = 60% of 80 U = (0.6 × 80) U = 48 U Given 4 times per day, so for a single dose = 48 U/4 = 12 U For 1 month (30 days), 30 x 48U = 1440 U Rp. Insulin lispro in ampoules personal injectors 300 Units/3 ml No. ??? (my teacher write is 10 but I don't understand why) Sig. Inject subcutaneously 12 Unit (0.12 ml) before each meal, 4 times a day for 1 month.

Her blood glucose was high, as well as her urine glucose, urine ketones, and serum ketones. Her serum bicarbonate was < 12 mEq/L. Her respiration was exaggerated, and her breath had an acetone odor. Her blood pressure was 90/60 and his pulse weak and rapid (120). 4. What is the acid-base status of this individual? 5. What are the causes of the dyspnea, hypotension, and tachycardia? 6. What type of treatment does this person need?
Answer the question.. A patient requires 40 units of NPH insulin and 10 units ofregular insulin daily subcutaneously. What is the correctsequence when mixing insulins?a. Inject air into the regular insulin vial and withdraw 10units; then, using the same syringe, inject air into the NPHvial and withdraw 40 units of NPH insulin.b. Inject air into the NPH insulin vial, being careful not toallow the solution to touch the needle; next, inject air into the regular insulin vial and withdraw 10 units; then, with-draw 40 units of NPH insulin. c. Inject air into the regular insulin vial, being careful not toallow the solution to touch the needle; next, inject air into the NPH insulin vial and withdraw 40 units; then, with-draw 10 units of regular insulin. d.
