Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a school-age child who has type 1 diabetes mellitus and his parents about illness management. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Test the urine for ketones. This instruction is important for a child with type 1 diabetes to monitor for diabetic ketoacidosis (DK
A). Ketones in urine indicate the body is using fat for energy due to lack of insulin, potentially leading to DKA.
Choice B is incorrect because insulin should not be withheld without medical advice.
Choice C is incorrect as blood glucose levels over 350 mg/dL should prompt immediate action, not just notification.
Choice D is incorrect as fluid intake is important in managing diabetes and preventing dehydration.
