2. Allergic responses to recombinant human insulin administration
3. Both
4. Neither
Adverse effect associated with insulin administration for treating type 1 and type 2 diabetes inlcudes lipohypertrophy.
1. True
2. False
Concerning diabetic ketoacidosis or significant hyperglycemia accompanied by a hyperosmolar status:
1. Appropriate intervention is IV insulin.
2. Patients with diabetic ketoacidosis exhibit declines in blood glucose levels at a rate of about 50% per hour.
3. Both
4. Neither
Hyperkalemia is typically associated with diabetic ketoacidosis.
1. True
2. False
In diabetic ketoacidosis bloodglucose concentrations as well as acidosis must be corrected; however, acidosis is typically corrected more slowly.
1. True
2. Paul's

1. True
2. Falls
Side effect/side effects associated with insulin administration.
1. Weight gain
2. Hypoglycemia
3. Both
4. Neither
Injected insulin enters the systemic circulation immediately; by contrast, endogenous insulin does not since it is secreted into the portal venous system.
1. True
2. False
An expected benefit of proactive, intensive insulin treatment that results in improved hyperglycemic control is a decrease in microvascular pathologies associated with diabetes mellitus.
1. True
2. False
Management of type 2 diabetes should involve treatment of associated medical issues such as:
1. Hypertension
2. Obesity
