Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who is admitted for elective surgery and has a history of Addison’s disease. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Hyperpigmentation. Addison's disease is characterized by adrenal insufficiency, leading to decreased production of cortisol and aldosterone. This results in increased production of ACTH, which can cause hyperpigmentation, especially in sun-exposed areas. Purple striations (
A) are seen in Cushing's syndrome, not Addison's. Hirsutism (
B) is excessive hair growth, commonly seen in conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome, not Addison's. Intention tremors (
D) are associated with cerebellar dysfunction, not typically seen in Addison's.
