Exam 2: Diagnosing Diabetes & Diabetes Management

Which patient's results do not indicate a diagnosis of diabetes?

How many minutes of aerobic exercise should an individual engage in per week?

In the long run, [blank_start]hyper[blank_end]glycemia can lead to retinopathy, nephropathy, and peripheral neuropathy.

In the case of hypoglycemia, a patient should take [blank_start]15[blank_end] grams of carbohydrates and then wait [blank_start]15[blank_end] minutes.

Select the symptoms related to a rapid drop in hypoglycemia, rather than a slow drop.

A hemoglobin A1C reading of 7% is equivalent to [blank_start]154[blank_end] mg/dL.

Diabetics should aim for the following readings: • Pre-prandial plasma glucose: [blank_start]70[blank_end]-[blank_start]130[blank_end] mg/dL • Post-prandial plasma glucose: <[blank_start]180[blank_end] mg/dL • Bedtime plasma glucose: [blank_start]100[blank_end]-[blank_start]140[blank_end] mg/dL • Hemoglobin A1c:< [blank_start]7[blank_end]%

You should check an oral glucose tolerance test after [blank_start]2[blank_end] hours.
