Question 1 of 5
A healthcare professional is educating clients in an outpatient facility about the use of Insulin to treat type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. For which of the following types of insulin should the professional inform the clients to expect a peak effect 1 to 5 hr after administration?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Regular insulin, also known as short-acting insulin, typically exhibits a peak effect around 1 to 5 hours following administration. This rapid onset and peak effect make it suitable for managing postprandial glucose levels. In contrast, Insulin glargine is a long-acting insulin with no pronounced peak effect, NPH insulin has an intermediate duration of action, and Insulin lispro is a rapid-acting insulin that peaks within 30 minutes to 2.5 hours after administration.
Question 2 of 5
A healthcare provider is caring for several clients who came to the clinic for a seasonal influenza immunization. The provider should identify that which of the following clients is a candidate to receive the vaccine via nasal spray rather than an injection?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. A 17-year-old can receive the influenza vaccine via nasal spray (LAIV) even if they have a hypersensitivity to penicillin, as this is not a contraindication for the influenza immunization. Therefore, in this scenario, the 17-year-old with a hypersensitivity to penicillin is a candidate for the nasal spray vaccine.
