CARBOHYDRATES
1. Following overnight fasting, hypoglycemia in adults is defined as a glucose of: - âœâ€Ã¢Å“â€<45
mg/dL (<2.5 mmol/L)
2. The following results are from a 21 year-old patient with a back injury who appears otherwise
healthy:
Whole Blood Glucose: 77 mg/dL (4.2 mmol/L)
Serum Glucose: 88 mg/dL (4.8 mmol/L)
CSF Glucose: 56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L
The best interpretation of these results is that: - âœâ€Ã¢Å“â€All values are consistent with a normal
healthy individual
3. The preparation of a patient for standard glucose tolerance testing should include: - âœâ€Ã¢Å“â€A high
carbohydrate diet for 3 days
4. If a fasting glucose was 90 mg/dL, which of the following 2-hour postprandial glucose results
would most closely represent normal glucose metabolism? - âœâ€Ã¢Å“â€100 mg/dL (5.5 mmol/L)
