A nurse is caring for a client who has substance use disorder and is experiencing acute toxicity to sedatives, but has no history of schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Which of the following manifestations should the nurse expect the client to experience?

C. It acknowledges the client's request and communicates that their request will be addressed in collaboration with their healthcare provider. This response respects the client's autonomy while also ensuring that medication decisions are made within the context of a comprehensive healthcare plan overseen by a qualified provider.

A. This statement may come across as dismissive or confrontational to the client. It does not effectively address the client's request or provide guidance on how to proceed.

B. This question may imply suspicion or judgment about the client's motives for seeking a new prescription. It does not foster open communication or collaboration between the nurse and the client and may create a barrier to effective communication.

D. This option is not the appropriate response to a request for a new medication prescription. This option does not address the client's specific request and may not be relevant to their current healthcare needs.

B. Panic-level anxiety is characterized by intense and overwhelming feelings of fear and apprehension. Physical symptoms often accompany this level of anxiety, and shakiness or tremors are common manifestations. The individual may experience trembling or shaking of the hands, voice, or other parts of the body due to heightened physiological arousal.

A. Voice tremors can occur in individuals experiencing anxiety, particularly when they are feeling highly stressed or nervous. However, shakiness or trembling in the body is more characteristic of panic level anxiety.

C. Depersonalization involves feelings of detachment from oneself or one's surroundings, as if observing oneself from outside the body or feeling disconnected from reality.

D Poor concentration or difficulty focusing can occur in individuals experiencing anxiety, including panic level anxiety. However, it is more of a cognitive symptom rather than a physical manifestation such as shakiness or tremors.
