Knowing how to recognize hypoglycemia, and knowing what to do about it to get their glucose level back up is super important. This is one of those conditions that you will see on a regular basis.
Hypoglycemia is when the blood sugar level drops below 70 mg/dL. The normal range for blood glucose is between 70-100. A low blood sugar level is very serious and you, as the nurse, must act quickly to fix it. I mean, think about it, What is the main fuel source for your brain? Glucose. Your brain needs glucose, or sugar, for energy. If the brain goes too long without enough glucose, it can cause seizures, coma, permanent brain damage, and even death.
