Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client and discovers the infusion pump with the client's total parenteral nutrition (TPN) solution is not infusing. The nurse should monitor the client for which of the following conditions?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Shakiness and diaphoresis. This indicates hypoglycemia, a potential complication of TPN interruption. Hypoglycemia can lead to shakiness and diaphoresis due to low blood sugar levels. Excessive thirst and urination (choice
A) are more indicative of diabetes or hyperglycemia. Hypertension and crackles (choice
C) are not typically associated with TPN interruption. Fever and chills (choice
D) are more suggestive of infection rather than TPN infusion issues. Monitoring for shakiness and diaphoresis allows the nurse to promptly address hypoglycemia and prevent further complications in the client receiving TPN.
