ATI Advanced Pharmacology Final Exam I | Nurselytic

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, "Risk for injury related to CVS effects and incidence of orthostatic hypotension." This is the most appropriate diagnosis for a patient with Parkinson's Disease because they are at increased risk for falls due to cardiovascular (CVS) effects such as orthostatic hypotension, which can lead to dizziness and falls. This diagnosis addresses the specific risk factor associated with Parkinson's Disease and focuses on preventing potential injuries.


Choice A, "Constipation related to dopaminergic effects," is incorrect as constipation is a common symptom in Parkinson's Disease but does not directly relate to the risk of injury.


Choice B, "Risk for injuries related to CVS effects and PVD," is incorrect because it includes peripheral vascular disease (PV
D) which is not typically associated with Parkinson's Disease.


Choice D, "Diarrhea related to dopaminergic effects," is also incorrect as diarrhea is not a common symptom or risk factor for patients with Parkinson's Disease.
