Answer:

The nurse should stand behind the client and palpate the cricothyroid area.

Explanation:

The client presents symptoms of hyperthyroidism, an autoimmune disease where the thyroid gland produces an excess of its hormone causing palpitations, bulging eyes, an increase in temperature, trembling hands, nervousness, panic attacks, insomnia, and weight loss.

When the thyroid gland overproduces the thyroid hormone, it increases its size. A nurse can check the size by palping the cricothyroid area, which is where the thyroid gland is.
