A 35-year-old male with hyperthyroidism begins treatment to decrease thyroid activity. A nurse monitors for which of the following conditions that could result secondary to the treatment?

A 70-year-old man attended a scheduled check-up with his primary care provider, during which he exhibited lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly

The man's primary care provider has ordered blood work to assess the man for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The nurse at the clinic would recognize that a diagnosis of CLL would be most consistent with what laboratory finding? A) Increased hemoglobin and hematocrit B) Increased lymphocytes C) Decreased platelets D) Decreased leukocytes

The long-term diabetic has had a glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test done to evaluate the effectiveness of his glucose control. The nurse evaluates the laboratory report of 5% to indicate that the effectiveness of the glucose control is:

a. excellent. b. good. c. fair. d. poor.

During the ECT (electroconvulsive therapy) stimulus, the nurse supports the patient's chin firmly against the bite-block positioned between the upper and lower teeth. The rationale for this intervention is to prevent:

a. involuntary biting of the lips. b. tooth damage or gum laceration. c. involuntary swallowing of the tongue. d. development of TMJD (temporomandibular joint disorder).
