Oral carbohydrates: The client is not currently hypoglycemic; in fact, the blood glucose is elevated at 279 mg/dL. Oral carbohydrates are typically given to treat low blood glucose, not high glucose. Administering carbohydrates here would worsen hyperglycemia. Insulin lispro: The client’s blood glucose is significantly elevated and requires correction. Insulin lispro is a rapid-acting insulin designed to lower high blood glucose quickly, making it the correct medication to administer while monitoring closely for improvement. Insulin glargine: Although the client is prescribed insulin glargine once daily, she has already received her dose earlier this morning before surgery. Giving another dose now would risk insulin stacking and dangerous hypoglycemia later, so it is not safe to administer at this point. A bolus of IV fluids: The client is showing signs of early dehydration — thirst and low urine output — likely due to hyperglycemia-induced osmotic diuresis. Administering a bolus of IV fluids will help restore circulating volume, prevent further dehydration, and support tissue perfusion.
