"I am lucky my shoes fit so nice and tight because they give me firm support." "When I am allowed up out of bed, I should check the bath water with my toes." "I should look at the condition of my feet every day."

"I should look at the condition of my feet every day." Daily inspection is important to verify the integrity of their feet. Patients with diabetic neuropathy should not walk barefoot or wear tight fitting shoes. They may also have loss of temperature sensation so they should not expose their extremities to hot water (thermometer is best).

Which of the following would you expect to see with a magnesium level of 3.0 mEq/L? A.Decreased pulse and decreased BP B.Confusion C.Increased pulse and increased BP D.Vertigo

A Rationale: Confusion, increased pulse and BP, and vertigo are all manifestations of hypomagnesemia(Mg <1.5 mEq/L). Since the magnesium level is greater than 2.5 mEq/L it is hypermagnesemia (decreased pulse and BP is a manifestation of hypermagnesemia)

A patient has a K+ level of 6.0 mEq/L, which interventions would RN most likely initiate? Select all that apply. A.Give Sodium polystyrene sulfonate (kayexalate) B.Administer loop or thiazide diuretics C.Withhold K+ from diet and IV sources D.Provide continuous ECG monitoring E.Administration of IV insulin

A (may be given rectally), B (if not contraindicated, would give NSaline if they're also dehydrated), C, D, E (but must give glucose) When the K+ elevation is mild and the kidneys are functioning, it may be sufficient to withhold K+ from diet and IV sources and increase renal K+ elimination by administering fluids and loop diuretics. Patients with severe hyperkalemia or symptomatic should receive medications that will force K+ into the cells. IV calcium gluconate prevents harmful dysrhythmias associated with hyperkalemia

A nurse will assess the patient with which signs and symptoms of hypernatremia first? A.Altered sensorium and mental status, confusion B.Blood pressure of 130/85 mmHg C.Urine output of 30 mL/hr D.2+ pitting edema E.Thirst

Do not switch brands b/c response to different drug brands can vary. ** normally taken in the AM before eating

The nurse is caring for a client who has been in good health up to the present and is admitted with cellulitis of the hand. The client's serum potassium level was 4.5 mEq/L yesterday. Today the level is 7 mEq/L. Which of the following is the next appropriate nursing action? A.Call the physician and report results B.Question the results and redraw the specimen C.Encourage the client to increase the intake of bananas D.Initiate seizure precautions

A - bc pt otherwise in good health When the serum potassium goes from 4.5 mEq/L to 7.0 mEq/L with no risk factors for hyperkalemia, false high results should be suspected because of hemolysis of the specimen. The physician would likely question results as well. Bananas are a food high in potassium. Seizures are not a clinical manifestation of hyperkalemia.

Which patient with type 1 diabetes mellitus would be at the highest risk for developing hypoglycemic unawareness (a form of neuropathy that causes the individual not to feel symptoms of hypoglycemia) ? A 16-year-old patient who is on the school track team A 73-year-old patient who takes propranolol (Inderal) for hypertension A 45-year-old patient with diabetic retinopathy A 24-year-old patient with a hemoglobin A1C of 8.9%

A 73-year-old patient who takes propranolol (Inderal) for hypertension Hypoglycemic unawareness is a condition in which a person does not experience the warning signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia until the person becomes incoherent and combative or lose consciousness. Hypoglycemic awareness is related to autonomic neuropathy of diabetes that interferes with the secretion of counterregulatory hormones that produce these symptoms. Elderly patients and patients who use beta-adrenergic blockers (e.g., propranolol) are at risk for hypoglycemic unawareness. Autonomic neuropathy is damage to nerves that control your internal organs. Autonomic neuropathy can lead to problems with your heart rate and blood pressure, digestive system, bladder, sex organs, sweat glands, eyes ability to sense hypoglycemia,- called hypoglycemia unawareness

Hydrostatic Pressure Blood pressure Edema Oncotic Pressure =

Hydrostatic Pressure: The force based on weight of water molecules pressing against the confining walls of a space, it forces water outward from a confined space through a membrane. •Blood Pressure: blood pressure is an example of hydrostatic filtering force. Whole blood moves from the heart to the capillaries where filtration can occur to exchange water, nutrients, and waste products i.e . dialysis (when kidneys fail = we need machine to assist with exchange) •Edema: forms with changes in hydrostatic pressure differences between the blood and the interstitial fluid •Blood backs up into the venous and capillary systems, the capillary hydrostatic pressure rises until it is higher than the pressure in the interstitial space. Excess filtration from the capillaries into the interstitial tissue space then forms visible edema or pitting edema Oncotic pressure = osmotic pressure caused by plasma colloids (proteins→ albumin often used to help with fluid balance to offload stress off heart; to help REABSORB WATER INTO BLOOD ) plasma proteins attract water, pulling fluid from the tissue into the vasculature

S/S for Hypernatremia changes seen in ___3___

Signs and symptoms for hypernatremia Changes are seen in: nerve, skeletal muscle, and cardiac function. Nervous system changes: short attention span, agitated, confused; with fluid overload may become lethargic, stuporous, or comatose. Skeletal muscle changes: muscle twitching, and irregular muscle contractions; worsening muscles and nerves are less responsive to stimuli. Cardiovascular changes: decreased contractility, increased heart rate, increased blood pressure.

S/S for hyponatremia are caused by ______ specific areas affected = ____4____

Signs and symptoms for hyponatremia are caused by its effects on cell transmission and excitability The cells specific affected are: cerebral, neuromuscular, intestinal smooth muscle, and cardiovascular functions. Cerebral changes: behavior changes - level of consciousness, cognition, acute confusion or increasing confusion. Very low sodium levels lead to seizures, coma, and death. Neuromuscular changes: general muscle weakness, diminished deep tendon reflexes. GI changes: increased motility, nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal cramping; hyperactive bowel sounds. Cardiovascular changes: rapid, weak, thready pulse, peripheral pulses diminished, decreased blood pressure, orthostatic hypotension.

A patient presents to the ER with complaints of tiredness and heart palpitations. While completing a patient history, the nurse notes the patient is taking a medication, spironolactone, for congestive heart failure. What signs and symptoms would the nurse prepare for? Select all that apply. A.Flattened T waves B.Rhabdomyolysis C.Cardiac arrest D.Paresthesias

Spironolactone is a potassium-sparing diuretic. Hyperkalemia is possible, especially if the patient is eating potassium-rich foods. NOT A. - sign of HYPOkalemia > would see peaked T waves in hyperkalemia NOT B. - can be caused by hypokalemia. Rhabdo is acute breakdown of muscle. As a result of cell lysis, electrolytes such as potassium and phosphate and myoglobin & creatine kinase (CK) are leaked from ruptured muscle tissue cells into the plasma of circulating blood. It is rarely caused by hyperkalemia, but it can cause hyperkalemia. C. - severe HYPERkalemia can cause dysrhythmia and cardiac arrest. Also, HF patient so their heart is already weakened so cardiac arrest is more likely. D. - severe hyperkalemia can cause paresthesias and ascending paralysis. HF makes it more likely a patient will suffer from hyperkalemia Salt substitutes often contain potassium chloride

The primary purpose for sulfonylureas, such as long-acting glyburide (Micronase), is to: Induce hypoglycemia by decreasing insulin sensitivity. Improve insulin sensitivity and decrease hyperglycemia. Stimulate the beta cells of the pancreas to secrete insulin. Decrease insulin sensitivity by enhancing glucose uptake.

Stimulate the beta cells of the pancreas to secrete insulin. Sulfonylureas are "secreters" and they cause the pancreas to increase secretion of insulin. Watch for hypoglycemia. Do not take if meal is skipped. glipizide/ glyburide / glimepiride

Sulfonylureas: 2 exps mech S/E

Sulfonylureas: Glipizide (Glucotrol) Glyburide (Diabeta) Stimulates release of insulin from pancreatic islets; decreases glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis; enhances cellular sensitivity to insulin S/e: Weight gain, hypoglycemia
