An MA is reviewing a patient's medical history prior to the patient's appointment. Which of the following lab results indicates the need to schedule an extension of the current visit?

  1. White blood cell count within normal range

  2. Fasting blood sugar 168 mg/dL

  3. Urine pH level

  4. Platelet count

The correct answer is: Fasting blood sugar 168 mg/dL

A high fasting blood sugar level of 168 mg/dL indicates potential diabetes or insulin resistance, which may require further testing or follow-up appointments with a healthcare provider. A white blood cell count within normal range (A) and urine pH level (C) may not necessarily require an extended visit. A platelet count (D) also does not specify the need for an extended visit. Therefore, the best answer is B.
