Question 1 of 5
The client ate 45 g of carbohydrate (carb) with the dinner meal. The client is to receive 2 units of aspart insulin subcutaneously for each carb choice (CHO) eaten (1 carb choice = 15 g). Which syringe shows the correct amount of insulin that the nurse should administer?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The client should receive 6 units of insulin. Eating 45 g of carbohydrates equals 3 CHOs. If the client is to receive 2 units of insulin for each CHO, the total amount of aspart insulin is 3 CHO times 2 units per CHO = 6 units.
