Question 1 of 5

A nurse is admitting a client who has a serum calcium level of 12.3 mg/dL (9-10.5 mg/dL). Which finding should the nurse expect during the initial assessment?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Increased blood clots. A serum calcium level of 12.3 mg/dL indicates hypercalcemia. Hypercalcemia can lead to increased blood clot formation due to alterations in blood coagulation factors. This is because calcium plays a role in blood clotting mechanisms. Hyperactive bowel sounds (
A) are not typically associated with hypercalcemia. Hyperactive deep tendon reflexes (
C) are more commonly seen in hypocalcemia. Positive Chvostek's sign (
D) is associated with hypocalcemia, not hypercalcemia.
