Interactive diabetes case 6: Poorly managed diabetes in a 64-year-old patient treated with insulin – B3

ANSWER — 

Incorrect.

Variability of blood glucose values before supper is reduced but persists. Pre-supper glucose values vary from 39 to 237 mg/dL (2.2 to 13.2 mmol/L). Also, the patient experiences an increase in the frequency of insulin reactions at this time of day. The glycated hemoglobin (A1C) value falls to 8.6 percent but remains elevated.

Return to the previous choice to try again. (See "Interactive diabetes case 6: Poorly managed diabetes in a 64-year-old patient treated with insulin – A4".)
