Question 1 of 5
A client visits a health care facility reporting loss of appetite following a prolonged illness. How should the nurse document the client's condition?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Anorexia. Anorexia specifically refers to the loss of appetite, which is the primary concern in this scenario. It is important for the nurse to document this term accurately to convey the client's condition clearly.
B: Emaciation refers to extreme weight loss and physical wasting, not directly related to loss of appetite.
C: Cachexia is a syndrome involving weight loss, muscle atrophy, fatigue, weakness, and loss of appetite, but it is more severe and specific than just loss of appetite.
D: Nausea is a sensation of wanting to vomit and is not related to appetite loss in this case.
Choosing A: Anorexia is the most appropriate and specific term to document the client's condition accurately.
