A nurse is assessing a client for risk factors for osteoporosis. which finding would be a concern?
trasher [3.6K]
  • The client report that she doesn't exercise much at all.
  • The client reports that she smokes a few cigarettes a day.
  • The client report that she is taking phenytoin to treat a seizure disorder.
  • The client reports that she takes a daily low dose of prednisone to treat a chronic respiratory condition.

The hip, backbone (spine), and wrist are the most often affected bones due to osteoporosis, which weakens bones to the point that they shatter easily. The term "silent illness" refers to osteoporosis since it might go unnoticed until a bone breaks.

Your bones, however, had been deteriorating for a long time. Sedentary behavior, cigarette smoking, excessive alcohol use, chronic disease, and long-term anticonvulsant and furosemide usage are risk factors for osteoporosis. A diet lacking in calcium is another risk factor linked to osteoporosis.
