Question 1 of 5

The nurse completes teaching insulin administration to the parent of the toddler newly diagnosed with type 1 DM. The nurse concludes that the teaching was successful when the parent makes which statement?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: A: NPH (Humulin N) insulin can be given in the morning, but there is better glucose control if given at night. NPH peaks in 4 to 14 hours, so there is no need to make sure food is given immediately after administration. B: Insulin injections should always be rotated to prevent subcutaneous tissue damage from giving the injections in the same location. C: Lispro (Humalog) is rapid-acting insulin that peaks in 30 to 90 minutes and may last as long as 5 hours in the blood. This statement is correct, indicating teaching is effective. D: Detemir (Levemir) is long-acting and lispro (Humalog) is rapid-acting insulin. An insulin pen uses prefilled, multiple-use insulin cartridges; adding other types of insulins should not be attempted.
