A nurse is caring for a client who has Cushing's syndrome. Which of the following interventions should the nurse expect to perform? (Select all that apply.)

A. Hepatomegaly: Hepatomegaly, or enlargement of the liver, is a common finding in right-sided heart failure due to congestion of the liver from impaired venous return. It indicates systemic venous congestion.

B. Crackles in the lungs: Crackles in the lungs are more commonly associated with left-sided heart failure, which leads to pulmonary congestion. Right-sided heart failure primarily causes systemic venous congestion rather than pulmonary issues.

C. Dry, hacking cough: A dry, hacking cough is not typically associated with right-sided heart failure. It is more related to left-sided heart failure or other pulmonary conditions.

D. Dizziness: Dizziness can occur in various conditions, including heart failure, but it is not a specific finding for right-sided heart failure. It is often due to decreased cardiac output or orthostatic hypotension.

A. Dry skin: Dry skin is typically a symptom of hypothyroidism, where there is insufficient thyroid hormone. In thyrotoxicosis, skin changes would more likely include warm, moist skin due to increased metabolism.

B. Heat intolerance: Heat intolerance is a common symptom of thyrotoxicosis because the increased metabolic rate leads to higher body temperatures and intolerance to heat.

C. Drowsiness: Drowsiness is usually associated with hypothyroidism, where low thyroid levels slow down metabolism, leading to fatigue and lethargy. Thyrotoxicosis typically causes hyperactivity and insomnia rather than drowsiness.

D. Bradycardia: Bradycardia, or slow heart rate, is associated with hypothyroidism. In thyrotoxicosis, increased thyroid hormone levels lead to an elevated heart rate (tachycardia), not a decreased one.
