Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a patient diagnosed with hypokalemia. Which of the following ECG findings would the nurse expect to observe in a patient with severe hyperkalemia?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Tall, peaked T waves are a hallmark ECG finding in hyperkalemia, especially when potassium levels exceed 6.0 mEq/L. A depressed ST segment and U waves are characteristic of hypokalemia, not hyperkalemia. T wave inversions occur in ischemia, not hyperkalemia.
