ATI 110 Fundamentals Exam 1 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is caring for a client who has had partial removal of the parathyroid gland. The client reports numbness and tingling of the hands and fingers. Which lab value would the nurse expect to see?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Calcium 7.5. With partial removal of the parathyroid gland, there may be decreased production of parathyroid hormone leading to hypocalcemia. Numbness and tingling in the hands and fingers are classic symptoms of hypocalcemia. A low calcium level of 7.5 is indicative of this condition.

Choice A: Chloride 112 is not related to symptoms of numbness and tingling.

Choice C: Potassium 4.0 is within the normal range and not associated with symptoms of hypocalcemia.

Choice D: Calcium 12.1 indicates hypercalcemia, not hypocalcemia, which would not cause numbness and tingling.
