Sugar module Post Test B changed
Periodically, we will need to change test questions. This change does not affect the post-test answer key. Please discard any previously printed Sugar module Post Test B and use this updated one. In addition, going forward, we will add a date in the footer of any test that is updated. In this case, you will see the following: 7th Edition Curriculum. Jul.01.25
Sugar Module
Post Test B – question 3.
Rationale: Item b was changed from a Heart rate of 175 beats per minute at rest (which, at rest, may be a neurogenic response to hypoglycemia and we wanted to avoid confusion by having two correct answers) to 160 beats per minute at rest (which is the upper limit of normal). The correct answer, a, is mild hypothermia, which is listed as a sign of hypoglycemia in Sugar Module on page 42, Table 1.4. Signs of hypoglycemia.
