I would have given the insulin, 3u can cause a drop in BG but the patient has a history of taking higher doses at home. A big factor to consider is if there is any IVF infusing & if there is Dextrose in it?? That alone is a source of nutrition. Though it is a good critical thinking measure to hold insulin for short-term NPO, with a BG level greater than 300 I would want to intervene and get that level down. A doctor must be contacted if your going against his/her orders!!! Cover your butt at all times and document the outcome it's a pain, but that's what were paid to do..... GOOD LUCK!!!

Thank You Guys for all that replied I appreciate it dearly.....how exciting and nerve wrecking at the same time What a relief!!! For the records I'm officially an LPN the biggest challenge is going to be searching for a job while finishing my last RN course For 08 Graduation

I just took my NCLEXPN exam 10/17/07 When I was sent a copy of my ATT (authorization to test) there was another attachment that mentioned I can get quick results for about $8.00 on the Pearson Vue website 2 Days after the exam. I checked today and it said passing status. Has anyone checked this way before and get a letter from their state board saying otherwise????

Hey I really appreciate your words of advice thats what I originally planned to do just study and practice questions. This industry definately profits from our fears even Nursing schools lol Thanx again!

I was wondering if anyone has taken an NCLEXPN live lecture review I dont want to be stuck spending 400 bucks on a class if not needed I'm just really stressed about this whole NCLEXPN thing I was preparing for NCLEXRN but failed my last final by 3 points :uhoh21:
