Question 1 of 5
The nurse is reviewing the laboratory test results of a client with long standing hypertension. Which result would be of most concern to the nurse?

C: Hemoglobin within normal range, not directly related to hypertension complications.
D: Potassium within normal range, not a direct concern related to hypertension.
