Question 1
pts
The nurse practitioner student is reviewing the lab results from an annual exam. The
CMP fasting glucose was 128 mg/dL. The patient does complain of polyphagia. What is
the nurse practitioner student's next action?
repeat fasting glucose in 3 months
Repeat fasting glucose in 1 week.
Prescribe Metformin 500 mg once a day.
Correct!
Order a HGA1C today.
Rationale: A fasting plasma glucose > 126 mg/dL requires further testing. In the
absence of unequivocal hyperglycemia, result should be confirmed by repeat testing. A
HgbA1C is the correct answer because the repeat testing should be completed without
delay. Retesting in a week or a year is a delay. Metformin should not be initiated until
the diagnosis is confirmed. Dunphy p.925
