Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client who has hypothyroidism. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Lethargy. In hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones, leading to a decrease in metabolism. Lethargy is a common symptom due to the slowing down of bodily functions. Exophthalmos (
A) is seen in hyperthyroidism, not hypothyroidism. Photophobia (
B) is sensitivity to light and is not typically associated with hypothyroidism. Weight loss (
C) is more common in hyperthyroidism due to increased metabolism.
Therefore, the correct answer is D as it aligns with the expected findings in hypothyroidism.
