C. Regular
D. Lantus
A patient is admitted with a blood glucose a - significant drop and will keep dropping
level of 900 mg/dl. IV fluids and insulin are
administered. Two hours after treatment is
initiated, the blood glucose level is 400
mg/dl. Which complication is the patient
most at risk for developing?
A. Hypoglycemia
B. Pulmonary embolus
C. Renal shutdown
D. Pulmonary edema
What are important nursing considerations - implement fall preventions!!
when their pt. is receiving a heparin drip? - careful when shaving; use electric razor if possible
What are things to avoid? - avoid IM injections (can cause hematomas when pt. is
heparinized)
