A nurse is cаring fоr а client аdmitted with DKA.  The previоus blоod glucose reading was 347 mg/dL and the insulin infusion is currently at 8 units/hr.  The new hourly blood glucose reading of 331 mg/dL was just obtained.  Using the protocol listed below, what is the new insulin infusion dose? Initiate Infusion Algorithm Initiate drip with Algorithm 1 Move to HIGHER number algorithm: IF BG > 200 mg/dL & BG has not fallen by at least 60 mg/dL within the previous hour. IF BG remains out of target range (100-150 mg/dL) & has not moved toward goal for two consecutive hours, move up to the next algorithm. IF in Algorithm 4, titrate the infusion up by 1 unit per hour & notify the MD Move to LOWER number algorithm: IF BG < 100 mg/dL x 2 consecutive readings UNLESS already at Algorithm 1.   Glucose Level Algorithm 1 Algorithm 2 Algorithm 3 Algorithm 4 < 60 Hypoglycemia Hypoglycemia Hypoglycemia Hypoglycemia < 70 0 0 0 0 70-109 0.2 units/hr 0.5 units/hr 1 units/hr 1.5 units/hr 110-119 0.5 units/hr 1 units/hr 2 units/hr 3 units/hr 120-149 1 units/hr 1.5 units/hr 3 units/hr 5 units/hr 150-179 1.5 units/hr 2 units/hr 4 units/hr 7 units/hr 180-209 2 units/hr 3 units/hr 5 units/hr 9 units/hr 210-239 2 units/hr 4 units/hr 6 units/hr 12 units/hr 240-269 3 units/hr 5 units/hr 8 units/hr 16 units/hr 270-299 3 units/hr 6 units/hr 10 units/hr 20 units/hr 300-329 4 units/hr 7 units/hr 12 units/hr 24 units/hr 330-359 4 units/hr 8 units/hr 14 units/hr 28 units/hr > 360 6 units/hr 12 units/hr 16 units/hr 28 units/hr
