A) "Limit fluid intake during mealtime":

Limiting fluid intake during meals is not a standard practice for managing type 1 diabetes. Proper hydration is important for overall health, and fluids should be consumed as needed.

B) "Notify the provider if blood glucose levels are over 350 milligrams/deciliter":

Blood glucose levels over 350 mg/dL can indicate hyperglycemia, which requires prompt attention. High blood glucose levels can lead to complications if not addressed promptly. Contacting the healthcare provider is an appropriate step. However, consistentBlood Glucose Levels Above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L) or presence of symptoms likefrequent urination, thirst, blurry vision, or fatigue) are concerning. The clientshould have contacted the health care provider by this point.

C) "Test the urine for ketones":

Testing urine for ketones is an important instruction. Ketones are produced when the body breaks down fat for energy, often in the absence of sufficient insulin. High ketone levels can indicate diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a serious complication. Regular ketone testing, especially during illness or high blood glucose levels, helps monitor for DKA.

D) "Withhold insulin dose if feeling nauseous":

This instruction is not accurate. Nausea could be a sign of various conditions, including illness. Insulin should not be withheld without consulting a healthcare provider. Managing insulin doses appropriately is crucial to maintaining blood glucose control

A) A story book about a child who has diabetes:

While a story book about a child with diabetes can be informative and reassuring, it might not directly address the child's distress after an insulin injection. The child needs an interactive play activity that mimics the experience to help them cope with the distress.

B) A period of play in the playroom:

Playing in a general playroom might be enjoyable, but it may not directly address the child's specific distress related to the insulin injection. To address the distress, a play activity directly related to the injection experience is more appropriate.

C) A needleless syringe and a doll.

Explanation:

Using a needleless syringe and a doll allows the child to engage in therapeutic play that simulates the experience of receiving an insulin injection. This type of play, known as medical play or therapeutic medical play, allows children to gain a sense of control and understanding over medical procedures in a non-threatening and imaginative way. By allowing the child to "give" the doll an injection using the needleless syringe, the child can process their feelings and fears related to their own injections, helping to reduce anxiety and distress.

D) A video game:

Playing a video game can be engaging and distracting, but it doesn't directly help the child process their feelings or fears about the insulin injection. Therapeutic play involving a needleless syringe and a doll provides a more hands-on and interactive way for the child to work through their emotions.
