Michelle complains to the night nurse that the staff on the day shift don't like her. She continues to tell the nurse that she is the best nurse on the unit because she is always caring and kind. The nurse informs Michele that she will be on vacation for the next week. An hour later. Michelle is found cutting her wrists with a plastic knife. Which personality disorder would you suspect Michelle has?

A. "I can see that you are angry. Let's discuss ways to approach Peter with your concerns."

This response is empathetic and invites the client to discuss their concerns. However, it doesn't explicitly address the client's request for the nurse to take action. The more appropriate approach would involve the nurse taking direct responsibility for addressing the issue.

B. "Why are you overreacting to the issue?"

This response may be perceived as dismissive and judgmental. It does not validate the client's concerns or address the issue constructively.

C. "You should bring this to the attention of your treatment team."

While involving the treatment team is important, the client has directly approached the nurse with a concern. It is appropriate for the nurse to take the initial step in addressing the issue directly rather than immediately redirecting the client to the treatment team.

D. "I'll talk to Peter and present your concerns."

This is the most appropriate response. It acknowledges the client's concerns, takes responsibility for addressing the issue, and ensures that the client's voice is heard. The nurse can discuss the matter with Peter and work towards a resolution.

A. Hypotensive shock: This is not the correct answer. MAO inhibitors are not associated with causing hypotensive shock. In fact, they can lead to an increase in blood pressure.

B. Hypertensive crisis: This is the correct answer. MAO inhibitors interact with certain foods and drugs, such as those containing tyramine, leading to an increased risk of a hypertensive crisis. Foods rich in tyramine, such as aged cheeses, certain wines, and some processed meats, can cause a sudden and dangerous increase in blood pressure when combined with MAO inhibitors.

C. Cardiac dysrhythmia: While all medications have potential side effects, MAO inhibitors are not typically associated with causing cardiac dysrhythmias.

D. Cardiogenic shock: MAO inhibitors are not known to cause cardiogenic shock. The primary concern with MAO inhibitors is the potential for a hypertensive crisis due to interactions with specific foods and drugs.
