    A patient with Type 1 DM will need insulin due to absolute insulin deficiency.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    A patient with Type 1 DM, also known as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, will need insulin due to absolute insulin deficiency. In Type 1 DM, the body's immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, leading to a complete lack of insulin production. Without insulin, glucose cannot enter the cells to be used as energy, resulting in high blood sugar levels. Therefore, patients with Type 1 DM require external insulin administration to regulate their blood sugar levels and prevent complications.

This implies that both options B and C are correct. Option A is not correct because it only includes the first statement about reducing HGA1C but does not mention anything about reducing BP and lipids.

    Metformin can cause lactic acidosis and should be used with caution with patients with heart failure and renal impairment

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Metformin, a commonly prescribed medication for diabetes, has been associated with the risk of lactic acidosis, a potentially life-threatening condition. Lactic acidosis occurs when there is an accumulation of lactic acid in the body. Patients with heart failure and renal impairment are already at a higher risk of developing lactic acidosis, and the use of metformin in these patients can further increase that risk. Therefore, it is important to exercise caution when prescribing metformin to patients with heart failure and renal impairment.

    • Discontinue diabetes medication

    • Test blood glucose less often than every 2 to 4 hours

    • Try to eat foods from their meal plan and drink plenty of fluids

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Try to eat foods from their meal plan and drink plenty of fluids
    Explanation
    During sick days, it is important for diabetes patients to try to eat foods from their meal plan and drink plenty of fluids. This is because maintaining a balanced diet and staying hydrated can help regulate blood sugar levels and prevent complications. Discontinuing diabetes medication is not recommended as it can lead to uncontrolled blood sugar levels. Testing blood glucose less often than every 2 to 4 hours is also not advisable as it is important to monitor and adjust medication or insulin doses accordingly. Therefore, the correct answer is to try to eat foods from their meal plan and drink plenty of fluids.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Insulin resistance is actually associated with a higher body mass index (BMI) rather than a lower one. Individuals with a BMI of 25 kg/m2 or higher are more likely to experience insulin resistance. This means that their body cells are less responsive to the effects of insulin, leading to higher levels of glucose in the blood. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    A one percent reduction in HgA1-C, which is a measure of long-term blood sugar control, has been found to have significant positive effects on various health outcomes. It is associated with a 14% decrease in all-cause mortality, indicating a reduction in overall death rates. Additionally, it leads to a 43% decrease in amputations, highlighting the prevention of severe complications. Moreover, there is a 24% decrease in renal failure, indicating a reduced risk of kidney damage.
