Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus. The nurse should recognize that the client needs a referral for diabetic education when the client does which of the following?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because listing sweating, shaking, and palpitations as symptoms of hyperglycemia indicates a misunderstanding of the condition. These symptoms are actually indicative of hypoglycemia. This shows a need for diabetic education to differentiate between hypo- and hyperglycemia symptoms.

Choice A is incorrect because drawing up regular insulin before NPH is a correct technique.

Choice B is incorrect as corns on the feet are unrelated to diabetes education.

Choice C is incorrect as treating hypoglycemia with 15g of carbohydrates is a correct response.

Therefore, the client needs a referral for diabetic education to correct their understanding of hyperglycemia symptoms.
