QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE
SOLUTIONS
endocrine |system |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-composed |of |glands |that |secrete |different |types |of |
hormone |that |affect |almost |every |cell, |organ |and |function |of |your |body. |It |is |essential |in |
regulating |growth |and |development, |metabolism, |as |well |as |reproductive |processes |and |
mood.
The |pancreas |is |a |gland |in |the |_________ |system? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Endocrine |System
The |pancreas |secretes |which |two |hormones? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Insulin |, |Glucagon
What |is |the |purpose |of |Insulin? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-To |carry |glucose |from |the |blood |
stream |into |the |cells |for |use |of |energy |and |fuel
Normal |fasting |or |ac |blood |sugar |range? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-70-110
ketoacidosis |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-excessive |production |of |ketones, |making |the |blood |acid
diabetes |mellitus |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-insulin |is |not |secreted |adequately |or |tissues |are |
resistant |to |its |effects
Seven |signs |of |Diabetes |Mellitus |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-unusual |thirst, |frequent |urination, |
extreme |hunger, |blurred |vision, |unusual |weight |lost, |extreme |fatigue, |irritability
, what |are |the |two |most |common |diabetes |mellitus |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-type |1 |& |type |2
What |is |type |1 |diabetes? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-insulin |dependent, |diagnosed |in |childhood |
or |early |adulthood
What |is |type |2 |diabetes |mellitus? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-poor |life |style |choices, |excessive |
body |fat, |produces |insulin |but |body |doesnt |use |it |effectively |known |as |insulin |resistance
How |does |aging |affect |the |body |as |related |to |diabetes |and |the |pancreas? |- |CORRECT |
ANSWER✔✔-Cells |become |more |resistant |to |the |effects |of |insulin, |more |difficulty |
metabolizing |glucose, |The |cells |in |the |pancreas |that |produce |insulin |becomes |less |sensitive |
with |age |and |don't |produce |insulin |quickly |enough |to |respond |to |high |blood |sugar.
What |are |the |three |P's |of |hyperglycemia? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-polyuria |- |frequent |
urination, |polydipsia- |frequent |thirst, |polyphagia-frequent |hunger
8 |signs |of |hyperglycemia |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-unusual |thirst, |frequent |urination, |extreme |
hunger, |unusual |weight |lost, |blurred |vision, |fruity |odor |to |breath, |fatique, |irritability
what |can |occur |if |blood |sugar |remains |to |low |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-lead |to |seizures, |coma, |
death
what |are |10 |signs |of |hypoglycemia |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-anxious, |sweating,cold |clammy, |
confused,fast |heart |rate,dizziness,nausea,weakness,headache,blurred |vision
By |recognizing |S/S |of |Hyper |and |Hypo |Glycemia |what |can |be |the |outcome |for |the |patient |or |
resident |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-can |save |persons |life, |failure |to |recognize |patients |S/S |can |
result |in |death
