Question 1 of 5

A client is receiving Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) while admitted in the inpatient setting. Which of the following conditions can occur if the nurse abruptly stops TPN?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Hypoglycemia. Abruptly stopping TPN can lead to a sudden drop in blood glucose levels since the body is no longer receiving the necessary nutrients and energy from the TPN. This can result in hypoglycemia, causing symptoms such as weakness, sweating, confusion, and even seizures.

A: Diarrhea is unlikely to occur as a direct result of abruptly stopping TPN.
C: Hypovolemia is not a direct consequence of stopping TPN suddenly.
D: Erythema at the site is a localized reaction that would not occur systemically due to stopping TPN.

In summary, the abrupt cessation of TPN can result in hypoglycemia due to the sudden deprivation of essential nutrients and energy, making option B the correct choice.
