11. A patient is scheduled to take 5 units of Humulin R and 10 units of NPH. What is the proper way of mixing these insulins?*

The nurse has administered five units of regular insulin and ten units of NPH insulin. After administering both prescribed insulins, the nurse should assess the client for hypoglycemiaA. thirty minutes after administration.B. two to four hours after administration.C. four to six hours after administration.D. ten to twelve hours after administration.

The nurse administers a combination of regular insulin and NPH insulin subcutaneously to a client at 0800. At which time should the nurse initially assess the client for hypoglycemia based on the peaks of the medications?A. 0830B. 1000C. 1200D. 1400

On June 2, 2007, a nurse in Wales accidentally injected an 85-year-old patient with a lethal amount of insulin during a home visit. While the syringes used to inject insulin are typically marked with insulin units instead of the usual milliliters, this nurse found herself without an insulin syringe on hand. So she retrieved a common syringe from her car and proceeded to do the transformation from milliliters to insulin units in her head. If 1 milliliter equals 100 insulin units, how many milliliters should the patient have been given if she had been prescribed 36 units?Group of answer choices1 milliliter = 100 units so 0.01 milliliter = 1 unit. It follows that 0.36 milliliters = 36 units. So she should have injected the patient with 0.36 milliliters.1 milliliter = 100 units so 0.1 milliliter = 1 unit. It follows that 0.36 milliliters = 36 units. So she should have injected the patient with 0.36 milliliters.1 milliliter = 100 units so 0.01 milliliter = 10 units. It follows that 36 milliliters = 36 units. So she should have injected the patient with 36 milliliters.1 milliliter = 100 units so 0.01 milliliter = 1 unit. It follows that 0.36 milliliters = 3.6 units. So she should have injected the patient with 3.6 milliliters.

Doctor prescribes 20 units of NPH insulin IVP for a patient with DKA you question this order because?NPH should not be given IV for DKANPH will cause you to experience problems with hyperglycemia.NPH insulin causes development of long-term damage to the eyes and kidneys.All of the above
