مريض سكري يمارس الرياضة بعد الظهر ويأخذ إنسولين. أي نصيحة تقلل خطر الهبوط؟

A diabetic client on insulin exercises in the afternoon. Which advice reduces hypoglycaemia risk?

1. Check glucose before exercise and have a starchy snack if low
2. Exercise on an empty stomach to burn more sugar
3. Inject insulin into the thigh just before running
4. Stop checking glucose on training days

Answer: A) Check glucose before exercise and have a starchy snack if low. Exercise increases insulin sensitivity and may cause hypoglycaemia even hours later. Check before and after, carry fast sugar and possibly reduce doses; injecting into an exercising limb speeds absorption.
