Question Image

Correct Answer: B,C

Rationale: The correct answers are B: Hypotension and C: Poor skin turgor. In a client with frequent vomiting and diarrhea, fluid loss leads to dehydration, causing hypotension and poor skin turgor. Hypotension results from decreased circulating blood volume due to fluid loss. Poor skin turgor occurs due to decreased skin elasticity from dehydration.

Choices A, D, and E are incorrect. Fat neck veins are not typical findings in dehydration. Bradycardia is not expected in dehydration; tachycardia is more common due to compensatory mechanisms to maintain cardiac output. Pale yellow urine is indicative of concentrated urine, not a typical finding in dehydration.
