Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has emphysema. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect to assess in this client? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: C,D,E
Rationale: The correct findings to expect in a client with emphysema are C: Barrel chest, D: Clubbing of the fingers, and E: Dyspnea. Emphysema is characterized by hyperinflation of the alveoli, leading to a barrel chest due to chronic air trapping. Clubbing of the fingers can occur due to chronic hypoxia. Dyspnea is a common symptom in emphysema due to impaired gas exchange. A: Bradycardia and B: Deep respirations are not typically associated with emphysema. Bradycardia is more commonly seen in conditions like hypothyroidism, while deep respirations are not a characteristic finding in emphysema.
