Diagnosis

Recommended Treatment Program

Patient 1

100-150mg/dL

200-250mg/dL

He has Excessively High Glucose Levels in the blood and borderline high glucose levels in the urine. Given his age and lifestyle he likely has type 2 diabetes

Eat a more balanced diet with less sugar and junk food. Begin doing some light walking or swimming exercise.

Patient 2

200-250mg/dL

200-250mg/dL

She has excessively high glucose levels in the urine and blood. Given her age and her excessive need for water and frequent urination, she likely has type 2 diabetes.

???

Patient 3

0 (zero) mg/dL

100-150mg/dL

He has normal glucose levels in the urine, but borderline high blood glucose levels in the blood.

???

Patient 4

0 (zero) mg/dL

Less than 70mg/dL

He has normal glucose levels in the urine, but low glucose levels in the blood.

Swallowing- Case Study

Sarah Miller is a 48 yo female who admitted to the ED with right hemiparesis, dysarthria and a reflexive cough while taking small sips of water. MRI of the brain confirmed an MCA distribution stroke. A bedside swallow evaluation was ordered which revealed the following: R facial droop with moderately dysarthric speech. Tongue deviates to the right on protrusion. Lips strength is moderately impaired. Palpation of larynx/hyoid during a dry swallow revealed mildly reduced laryngeal elevation/excursion. Vocal quality is soft and breathy. Unable to complete diakochokinetic rate due to poor approximation and coordination of movements.


1.   Name 3 cranial nerves you think could be damaged and explain why?

2.   What indications (ie symptoms) do you subjectively consider based on the patient?s presentation (prior to initiating the exam) just based off of what you see, hear and have read about the medical history?


3.   What does the inability to complete the diadochokinetic rate tell you about the patient?s speech/swallow deficits?
