0:00.0 | All right, welcome. My name is Divine. This is episode 593 of the Divine Intervention Podcast. In today's podcast, we're going to be continuing the series on the step one free, 120. It's going to be series 10. We're going to be doing questions 91 to 100. All right. Let's get on with question 91. A four-year-old girl with type 1 diabetes is brought to the ED by her father. |
0:26.1 | Because of a four-hour history of four-hour episode of restlessness, sweating, and confusion that occurred during the night. |
0:30.4 | Yesterday, he allowed her to eat cupcakes and cotton candy at a county fair. |
0:36.4 | At her bedtime that evening, he increased her dose of sub-Q, intermediate acting and long-acting insulin. |
0:39.2 | Her symptoms began six hours later, then resolved spontaneously. After being informed this morning of this nighttime episode, the mother insisted |
0:44.3 | the father bring the patient to the hospital. On arrival, the patient is alert. Her vital |
0:49.5 | signs are within normal limits. Examination shows no abnormalities. Her finger stick blood glucose is 72. |

1:32.3 | were preceded by had that just really bumping a dose of insulin that was not maybe not the wisest thing |
1:36.6 | to do so it has to be a hypoglycemia answer again because that that just gave too much insulin so the |
1:41.7 | answer is going to be option d again this person literally the labs do not show hyperglycemia, right? |
1:48.1 | And then option E says hypoglycemia caused by excessive renal glucose loss. |
1:52.8 | Well, do we see glucose in her urine? |
1:54.7 | No. |
1:55.6 | Hypoglycemia caused by increased glucose on secretion. |
