About This Board

Sharpen recall on diabetes types, glucose thresholds, complications, insulin action and storage, and oral agents—concise, test-ready facts from Chapter 34. This is a Middle School Science review game in a Jeopardy-style format: a teacher puts the board on one screen, teams pick clues by point value, and the class answers out loud — no student devices or accounts needed. Categories: Diabetes Basics & Classification, Glucose Levels & Complications, Insulin Therapy & Handling, Oral Antidiabetic Drug Classes, Nursing Care & Glycemic Events.

Board content

Diabetes Basics & Classification

$100 — A group of diseases marked by hyperglycemia and metabolic abnormalities.
Diabetes mellitus
$200 — Autoimmune beta-cell destruction with no pancreatic insulin secretion and early onset.
Type 1 diabetes
$300 — The 90–95% form characterized by insulin resistance and decreased beta-cell activity.
Type 2 diabetes
$400 — Abnormal glucose tolerance during pregnancy that must be reclassified after delivery.
Gestational diabetes mellitus
$500 — These three classic symptoms often mark the onset of type 1 diabetes.
Polydipsia, polyphagia, polyuria

Glucose Levels & Complications

$100 — Fasting plasma glucose under 100 mg/dL indicates this status.
Normal fasting glucose
$200 — An FPG of 100–125 mg/dL is termed this.
Impaired fasting glucose
$300 — A 2-hour FPG of 140–199 mg/dL signals this condition.
Impaired glucose tolerance
$400 — A microvascular eye complication in diabetes that can cause blindness.
Retinopathy
$500 — A macrovascular complication listed alongside stroke and myocardial infarction.
Peripheral vascular disease

Insulin Therapy & Handling

$100 — This hormone transports glucose through the cell membrane.
Insulin
$200 — Approximate onset time for rapid-acting insulin.
10 minutes
$300 — The peak profile characteristic of long-acting insulin.
No peak
$400 — Opened insulin at room temperature should be discarded after this many days.
30 days
$500 — Before administering insulin, nurses confirm this about the patient’s movement plans.
Anticipated activity level

Oral Antidiabetic Drug Classes

$100 — This biguanide decreases hepatic glucose production and increases insulin sensitivity.
Metformin
$200 — These agents stimulate insulin release and may cross-react in sulfonamide-allergic patients.
Sulfonylureas
$300 — Repaglinide and nateglinide belong to this class.
Meglitinides
$400 — These inhibitors block enzymes like pancreatic alpha amylase to slow carbohydrate digestion.
Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors
$500 — These agents block SGLT2 to reduce glucose reabsorption and can cause GU infections.
SGLT2 inhibitors

Nursing Care & Glycemic Events

$100 — Patients should check this before each meal and at bedtime.
Blood glucose
$200 — A simple carry-along remedy taught for sudden hypoglycemia.
Hard candy
$300 — Sweating, tremors, nervousness, and cold clammy skin point to this state.
Hypoglycemia
$400 — Headache, abdominal pain, rapid shallow respirations, and acetone breath suggest this.
Hyperglycemia
$500 — Metformin should be held around procedures using these IV agents due to renal risk.
