Homework Answers
The normal blood glucose level for an individual is about 72 to 140 mg/DL. If the blood glucose level increases in an individual then he is supposedly affected by the hyperglycaemia or diabetes mellitus.
The range of blood glucose level of Mr. Janero is way too high than the normal and because of which the symptoms such as nausea, vomitting as well as the confusion in the patient is being seen. The patient who is having blood glucose level more than 500 mg/DL has a high risk of life threatening conditions. The effect of very high glucose level in the blood stream is nerve damage as well as hypertension and decreased blood flow to the heart as well as brain causing the patient to have confusion and stroke.
