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.

Which findings would support a diagnosis of emphysema rather than chronic bronchitis?

melomori [17]

The damage of the alveoli will support the diagnosis of emphysema rather than chronic bronchitis.

Emphysema causes damage to the alveoli of the lungs. This reduces the surface area of the lungs. As a result less oxygen is supplied to the body. The damage can't be undone hence emphysema is a chronic illness. The first symptom is shortness of breath that can reach up to the level where it can happen to the person even at rest.

Chronic bronchitis is the inflammation of the bronchi. These people are more prone to lung infections. The symptom of the disease is wet cough due to production of excessive mucus.

Neuroleptic malignant syndrome

Antipsychotic medication can cause the neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), a potentially fatal idiosyncratic reaction that is marked by fever, altered mental state, muscular stiffness, and autonomic dysfunction.

It has been linked to almost every neuroleptic, including more recent atypical antipsychotics, as well as a number of other drugs that influence central dopaminergic neurotransmission.

NMS is a rare condition, but it should still be taken into account when making a differential diagnosis for individuals who have fever and mental status changes since it has to be caught early to avoid serious morbidity and mortality.

The offending agent must be stopped right away, supporting measures must be put in place, and in more serious situations, pharmaceutical treatments may be necessary.
