Change of shift report on endocrine unit, the nurse would see which patient first.
00:05
Out of all the options, the one that the nurse would tend to first is going to be insulin pump occlusion.
00:46
This is most urgent.
00:53
An insulin pump indicated inclusion means that there is a blockage in the delivery of insulin.
01:00
This could result in inadequate insulin delivery potentially due to hyperglycemia or other serious complications.
01:28
So from here, especially when the patient with type 1 diabetes received a necessary insulin, is very important because type 1 patient do not produce insulin, and insulin is essential to lower the blood glucose after eating.
01:47
So this lack of insulin could be a very severe case cause severe hyperglycemia, which could be a life -threatening condition sometimes.
02:02
And as we just mentioned, type 1 patient do not produce insulin at all.
02:18
Without the insulin, their blood glucose level can become dangerously high.
02:45
As i mentioned, a dangerously high glucose level can be life -threatening.
02:57
So this is actually considered as an emergency...
