Explanation:

HHNS is a clinical complication of diabetes usually type ii. where the blood sugar levels is exceedingly  high. This  condition is not mark with high concentration of ketone bodies  of the blood.

Due to rapid rise in blood glucose in HHNS mostly in type 2 diabetes, Excess glucose is excreted in the urine, and water follows by osmosis, leading to excess urine production (polyuria). With  loss of body fluids(dehydration set in) and need to take more fluid(polydipsia follows) . Because the body cells lack glucose, due to  the failure of insulin receptors which enable insulin to  facilitate glucose   entry  into cells, hunger sets  in and  excessive urge to eat (polyphagia) occurs.

Therefore, Jomari  need to be conscious of dehydration. By taking enough fluid to stabilize the body fluid balance, and  avoid  intake of too much sugar which will cause polyuria, polydipsia and polypahgia.

Jomari also need to be on the watch if the rate of micturition(urine passage)  is higher than normal or if thirst and hunger rates are excessively high so that  needed medical intervention could be provided.

the bullets go in this order.
