Question 1 of 5
A nurse collecting data on a client who has vitamin A deficiency. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect? A. Impaired vision B. Swollen tongue C. Constipation D. Bleeding gums Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A, impaired vision. Vitamin A deficiency can lead to night blindness and eventually total blindness due to the role of vitamin A in maintaining healthy vision. Swollen tongue (
B), constipation (
C), and bleeding gums (
D) are not typically associated with vitamin A deficiency. Swollen tongue is more commonly linked to vitamin B12 deficiency, constipation is not a typical symptom of vitamin A deficiency, and bleeding gums may be a sign of vitamin C deficiency.
Therefore, impaired vision is the most relevant finding that the nurse should expect when assessing a client with vitamin A deficiency.
