insulin
Instructed patient about the importance of injecting insulin
not exactly in the same place each time, but move around in the same area so the insulin
reaches the blood with the same speed with each shot.
Instructed patient about factors that can affect BS such as foods, exercises, illness, stress, quantity of insulin
, and when and where insulin
is administered.
Instructed patient on insulin
. It is widely used to decrease blood glucose levels by replacing insulin
not produced by the pancreas.
Patient was instructed on how to remove bubble from the syringe. Draw up the insulin
slowly and steadily. When bubbles are forming in the syringe means that the drawing has been done too fast, so push the insulin
back into the bottle and re-draw. Patient was told to do this many times as needed until the bubbles are gone.
Caregiver was instructed on injecting at the proper depth is an important part of good injection technique. Insulin
be injected in the subcutaneous fat, which is the layer of fat just below the skin. If injected too deep, the insulin
could go into muscle, where it's absorbed faster but might not last so long.
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. Whether the decreased insulin
activity is due to a amount of insulin
, the results are the same
Patient was instructed on Hyperglycemia. High blood sugar develops when there is too little insulin
or when the body fails to respond properly to the insulin
in the blood. High blood sugar emergencies often develop because of some underlying condition that may not be obvious, such as a heart attack, infection, or surgery.
Patient was instructed on hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia may result from a variety of causes that include: Too much insulin
. Tumors in the pancreas (insulin
omas), certain disorders of the pancreas, or some autoimmune diseases can cause too much insulin
to be produced. These conditions are rare.
Patient was instructed on diabetes. Disease is cause by a lack of insulin
, a hormone made in the pancreas that is essential for converting energy from food. Insulin
is necessary for the body to process nutrients (carbohydrates, fats and proteins), and its absence cause high sugar levels in the blood.
Patient was instructed on diabetes. There are 2 types of diabetes. Type I diabetes, the pancreas stops making insulin
altogether. Type II diabetes, the body still makes some insulin
but it doesn't make enough, or the body can't use it properly.
