Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a group of clients. The nurse should monitor which of the following clients for manifestations of hypokalemia?

Correct Answer: A,B,E

Rationale: The correct answer is A, B, and E. Hypokalemia is a condition characterized by low potassium levels in the blood. Clients taking prednisone (
A), torsemide (
B), and hydrochlorothiazide (E) are at risk for developing hypokalemia due to the diuretic effects of these medications, which can lead to potassium loss through urine. Monitoring these clients for manifestations of hypokalemia, such as muscle weakness, fatigue, and cardiac dysrhythmias, is essential.

Choices C and D are incorrect because polystyrene sulfonate is used to treat hyperkalemia, and spironolactone is a potassium-sparing diuretic that can lead to hyperkalemia.
