Question 1 of 5

A nurse is admitting a client who reports anorexia and is experiencing malnutrition. Which of the following laboratory findings should the nurse expect to be altered?

Correct Answer: D

In cases of malnutrition, albumin levels decrease due to inadequate protein intake. This decrease in albumin indicates poor nutritional status and can lead to various complications.

A: Troponin is a marker for heart damage, not related to malnutrition.
B: Creatine kinase is an enzyme associated with muscle damage, not directly affected by malnutrition.
C:
Total bilirubin is related to liver function and not a specific indicator of malnutrition.
