I was also confused on what assessments to quickly do at first]]> 2021-10-11 15:08:37 UTC https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807959124 awummee https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807960496 Education on blood sugar and signs and symptoms to look for hypoglycemic shock . 
Oxygen therapy 
Administering 50mL of dextrose 50% in water IV
Flushing IV after administration
Assessing IV site
A couple of things went right for me for this simulation: I was able to complete basic provider’s orders including placing an ECG monitor and non-rebreather mask, obtaining VS, a BMP and blood glucose levels, and providing patient education.

Next time, I will remember to administer the oral proteins and carbohydrates as ordered. I assumed that because the patient's blood glucose levels were normal from the medication that we may not need to give the patient food, but I realized later it would have been better to give the patient food to prevent him from experiencing hypoglycemia again.]]> 2021-10-11 15:09:27 UTC https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807961899 awummee https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807962237 Unstable blood glucose levels, hypoglycemic episode; lack of education on blood glucose checking, activity level and ways to prevent hypoglycemia]]> 2021-10-11 15:09:34 UTC https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807962237 awummee https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807964169 I'm glad I checked the patient's blood sugar levels before and after administering glucose medication, so we could make sure the medication was working.
I raised the head of the patient's bed to place him in a high fowler's position while giving his carbohydrates and protein 
I would have educated the patient on the importance of having an energy and glucose filled snack before exercising ]]> 2021-10-11 15:10:08 UTC https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807964169 awummee https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807964639 Once dextrose was administered, the patients 02 sat went up from 72 to 99
Patient was A&O x 4 where previously he was confused 
Normal rate and rhythm where before he was expereicning tachycardia 
RR went down form 19 to 13

Patient became alert and responsive after interventions, oxygen sat 71 % to 98%]]> 2021-10-11 15:10:17 UTC https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807964639 awummee https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807967215 Patient is now  stable
Glucose is now 157
HR is 98
RR is 13
patient is A&O x 4
patient is able to communicate 
Patient is able to understand education about hypoglycaemia S/S, prevention and when to seek medical help]]> 2021-10-11 15:11:05 UTC https://padlet.com/awummee/ptl2kavx7ppthwes/wish/1807967215
