Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has acute kidney injury and a potassium level of 6.5 mEq/L. Which of the following ECG changes should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Peaked T waves. In hyperkalemia (high potassium level), the myocardium becomes more excitable, leading to changes in the ECG. Peaked T waves are a classic sign of hyperkalemia, indicating early stages of cardiac involvement. Flattened T waves (choice
A) are associated with hypokalemia. Prolonged PR interval (choice
C) and ST segment depression (choice
D) are not typically seen in hyperkalemia.
