Experiment Results
Predict Question:
Predict Question: To measure the amount of plasma glucose in a patient sample
Your answer : a. the glucose concentration of the sample will be measured and the optical density will be extrapolated from
the glucose standard curve.
Stop & Think Questions:
Why does the color in the tubes vary?
You correctly answered: c. The tubes contain different amounts of glucose.

3. Describe the diagnosis for patient 3, who was also pregnant at the time of this assay.
Your answer:
-La paciente 3 tiene 132 mg/decilitro, esta embarazada , la sensibilidad de la insulina en los tejidos es normal o se
encuentra aumentada y, debido al consumo de glucosa por la placenta y al crecimiento fetal, la madre se encuentra
predispuesta a la hipoglucemia del ayuno, como las muestras se toman en ayuno deberia existir un valor normal e incluso
inferioral valor normal 110 mg/decilitro, podria se que la paciente 3 tenga diabetes gestacional.
4. Which patient(s) had normal glucose reading(s)?
Your answer:
el paciente 1 tiene un nivel de 105 mg / dl inferior a 110 mg / dl considerandose entonces normal ,el resto supera los 110
mg / dl .
5. What are some lifestyle choices these patients with normal plasma glucose readings might recommend to the borderline
impaired patients?
Your answer:
evitar el consumo excesivo de carbohidratos (contienen glucosa) para que la insulina tenga mayor eficiencia ,o desarrolle
resistencia a la insulina
