Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
The nurse should teach the parents how to use a glucagon or glucose emergency kit when the child is in a hypoglycemic condition. The nurse should instruct the parents to avoid chocolate bars to relieve the condition, because the high fat content prevents the quick release of glucose. Glucose should be placed between the lower lip and front teeth if the child is unconscious. The nurse may instruct the parents to carry and give simple carbohydrate snacks, such as peanut butter crackers or five to six pieces of hard candy.
