➢ Hypoglycemia Troubleshooting POSSIBLE CAUSE SUGGESTED RESPONSE Consult with your healthcare professional to make Increased physical adjustments for increased physical activity. You may activity choose to use or modify temporary basal rates or decrease meal boluses prior to activity. Consult with your healthcare professional to adjust basal Eating less rates or meal boluses to more accurately reflect your current intake.
8.2 Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) ➢ What is hyperglycemia (high blood sugar)? Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) can occur due to any interruption in the delivery of insulin. It is important to know that if there is no insulin delivery you may experience an increase in your blood sugar which, if undetected or untreated, may cause DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis).
