After reviewing the laboratory reports of a client, a nurse finds that the client has chronic pelvic inflammatory disorder (PID). Which condition should the nurse anticipate in the client?

Choice A rationale: Arterial blood gas (ABG) findings provide direct information about oxygenation and acid-base balance in the blood, which can indicate hypoxemia and metabolic acidosis.

Choice B rationale: Oxygen saturation level provides information about oxygen saturation in the blood but doesn't give a complete assessment of acid-base balance or other gases in the blood.

Choice C rationale: White blood cell differential assesses different types of white blood cells and is not directly related to evaluating hypoxemia or metabolic acidosis.

Choice D rationale: Red blood cells (RBCs) and hemoglobin count findings are important but do not directly assess hypoxemia or metabolic acidosis.

Choice A rationale: These are symptoms of advance renal failure. Stomatitis and diarrhea are signs of uremia, which is the accumulation of waste products in the blood.

Choice B rationale: Dyspnea and anuria are signs of fluid overload and kidney shutdown and indicate advanced renal failure.

Choice C rationale: Confusion and vomiting are signs of acidosis and electrolyte disturbances and occur in advanced stages of renal failure.

Choice D rationale: One of the early symptoms of renal insufficiency is nocturia, which is the need to urinate frequently at night. This occurs because the kidneys are unable to concentrate urine during the day and produce more urine at night. Another early symptom is oliguria, which is the production of less than 400 mL of urine per day. This occurs because the kidneys are unable to excrete enough urine to maintain fluid balance.
