F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on review of facility policy, clinical records, and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to notify physicians of increased and decreased Capillary Blood Glucose (CBG) levels and failed to assess residents for hyperglycemia (high blood glucose) and hypoglycemia (low blood glucose), for four of 12 residents reviewed (Residents R13, R89, R147, and R198). Residents Affected - Some Findings include: The Centers for Disease Control defines diabetes as: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic (long-lasting) health condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. Most of the food you eat is broken down into sugar (also called glucose) and released into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals your pancreas to release insulin. Insulin acts like a key to let the blood sugar into your body's cells for use as energy. If you have diabetes, your body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use the insulin it makes as well as it should. When there isn't enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious health problems, such as heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease. Hypoglycemia is a condition that occurs when blood glucose is lower than normal, usually below 70 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl). If left untreated, hypoglycemia may lead to weakness, confusion, unconsciousness, arrhythmias and even death. People with Diabetes Mellitus may be prescribed injectable insulin to assist in maintaining acceptable levels of CBG's. Hyperglycemia, or high blood glucose, occurs when there is too much sugar in the blood. This happens when your body has too little insulin. Hyperglycemia is blood glucose greater than 125 mg/dL while fasting (not eating for at least eight hours, or a blood glucose greater than 180 mg/dL one to two hours after eating. If you have hyperglycemia and it ' s untreated for long periods of time, you can damage your nerves, blood vessels, tissues and organs. Damage to blood vessels can increase your risk of heart attack and stroke, and nerve damage may also lead to eye damage, kidney damage and non-healing wounds. Review of the facility policy General Guidelines reviewed 3/27/24, indicated the nurse must verify all practitioner orders to ensure all required information/directions are included. Staff must monitor the resident ' s status and condition and respond to significant changes promptly. Staff must document all care and services provided to the resident. Review of the facility policy Notification of Change in Resident Condition and Treatment Changes reviewed 3/27/24, indicated to assess the resident ' s condition, document findings and notifications in the nurses' notes. Review of the facility policy Emergency Care Guidelines: Hypoglycemic Protocol reviewed 3/27/24, indicated blood glucose monitor (BGM) reading less than 70 and symptomatic or less than 60 regardless of symptoms indicated to hold all diabetic medications and insulin until reviewed by physician, administer four ounces of soda or juice followed by four ounces of milk, recheck BGM in 15 minutes, treat according to protocol, and notify physician. Review of the Contour next EZ Blood Glucose Monitoring System User Guide 2020 edition, indicated a HI reading is a test result above 600 mg/dl.
