A patient is brought to the hospital unconscious and is a known diabetic patient. The medic was unable to get a bedside glucose

reading. Upon analysis, the laboratorian got a glucose reading of 800++ mg/dL. The ++ means the concentration is higher than the analyzer can read. As a laboratorian, explain how you would do a 1/2 dilution and what the patients actual result is if the analyzer reports a 459 mg/dL sugar following the dilution.
