A nurse is caring for a client who reports chest pain. Which of the following laboratory findings indicates myocardial damage?

A. Place the client's valuables in the facility's safe - While securing the client's valuables is important, it is not the priority upon admission.

B. Observe the client's level of mobility - This is the priority as it allows the nurse to assess the client's immediate physical condition and risk of falls or other mobility-related issues.

C. Administer prescribed medications - Medication administration can wait until the client's initial assessment, including mobility, has been completed.

D. Electronically enter the prescriptions from the provider - Entering prescriptions can be done after the initial assessment and immediate needs of the client have been addressed.

A. Levothyroxine is a medication used to treat hypothyroidism by replacing or supplementing thyroid hormone. It is not typically associated with decreased blood pressure.

B. Weight loss can be an indicator that levothyroxine therapy is effective in treating hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism often leads to weight gain, and successful treatment with levothyroxine can help reverse this trend.

C. Levothyroxine therapy primarily targets thyroid hormone levels and is not directly associated with decreased inflammation.

D. Seizures are not typically associated with hypothyroidism or its treatment with levothyroxine.

The effectiveness of levothyroxine is primarily assessed by monitoring thyroid function tests and clinical symptoms such as weight loss, improved energy levels, and resolution of hypothyroid symptoms.
