Hirsutism is more commonly associated with Cushing's syndrome due to excess androgen production. Addison's disease, on the other hand, involves insufficient production of adrenal hormones.

Purple striations, or striae, are a characteristic finding in Cushing's syndrome as a result of prolonged exposure to high levels of cortisol, not typically seen in Addison's disease.

Intention tremors are typically associated with neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis, and are not a characteristic finding in Addison's disease.

An increase, rather than a decrease, in blood pressure would typically indicate improved fluid status and perfusion following adequate fluid resuscitation.

Weight changes are not an immediate indicator of fluid resuscitation adequacy. Weight reflects overall fluid balance over a longer period.

An increase, not a decrease, in urine output is expected with adequate fluid resuscitation, as improved renal perfusion results in better urine production.

Cardiac enzymes do not localize the MI; imaging studies like echocardiography or coronary angiography are required to identify the specific location of myocardial damage.

Pulmonary congestion is assessed using chest X-rays or clinical symptoms, not through cardiac enzyme levels.

Cardiac enzyme tests do not provide information about the structure or mobility of heart valves. This information is obtained through echocardiography or other imaging techniques.

Xerostomia, or dry mouth, can occur due to various causes, including medications, but it is not an infectious condition linked directly to AIDS.

Gingivitis, an inflammation of the gums, can occur in immunocompromised individuals but is not as specific or common in AIDS as candidiasis.

Halitosis, or bad breath, can be a symptom of various conditions, including oral infections, but it is not a specific infectious condition associated with AIDS like candidiasis is.

Holding the client's arms and legs can cause injury and does not help in managing the seizure. The focus should be on protecting the client from harm.

Moving the client back to bed during a seizure can be dangerous and increase the risk of injury. It's best to manage the seizure where the client is.

Inserting a tongue blade or any object into the client's mouth can cause injury to the teeth or oral cavity and is not recommended during a seizure.

Notifying the provider is important if initial interventions do not resolve the issue, but it is not the first action to take.

Adjusting the rate of the bladder irrigant may help, but first, it is essential to ensure that there is no mechanical obstruction in the tubing.

Irrigating the catheter can help clear any blockages, but the first step is to check for any kinks or obvious obstructions in the tubing.

Metabolic alkalosis is characterized by an elevated pH and elevated bicarbonate, which is not consistent with these ABG values.

Respiratory alkalosis presents with an elevated pH and decreased PaCO2, opposite of the client's findings.

Metabolic acidosis would show a decreased pH with a low bicarbonate level, but this client's bicarbonate is within normal range.

Differences in upper and lower lung sounds are not indicative of atrial fibrillation but may suggest other conditions such as fluid accumulation or pneumonia.

Differences between oral and axillary temperatures are not relevant to the assessment of atrial fibrillation but could indicate issues with measurement accuracy.

Different blood pressures in the upper limbs might suggest vascular issues but are not specific indicators of atrial fibrillation.

An RBC count of 5 million/mm3 is within the normal range for females (4.2-5.4 million/mm3) and does not indicate an immediate concern in the context of chemotherapy.

Platelet count of 155,000/mm3 is on the lower end of the normal range (150,000-450,000/mm3) but does not pose an immediate risk compared to neutropenia.

A hemoglobin level of 12 g/dL is within the normal range for females (12-16 g/dL) and does not require urgent reporting.
