Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who has hyperthyroidism. The nurse should expect the client to report which of the following manifestations?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Frequent mood changes. In hyperthyroidism, there is an excessive production of thyroid hormones leading to symptoms such as irritability, anxiety, and mood swings. This is due to the increased metabolic activity caused by the excess thyroid hormones. Constipation (
A) is more common in hypothyroidism. Sensitivity to cold (
B) is also seen in hypothyroidism due to decreased metabolic rate. Weight gain of 4.5 kg (10 lbs) in 3 weeks (
C) is unlikely in hyperthyroidism as it usually leads to weight loss.
Therefore, choice D is the most appropriate manifestation for hyperthyroidism.
