Ok I'm confused about thyroid levels in hypo/hyperthyroidism. Had a question: The patient has an elevated serum thyroxine level. This indicates which disease process? Answer is hypothryroidism. Review books and interent say that there will be decreased T4 though in hypothyroidism? Can anyone help explan this to me?
I just had my second med-surg test. While I improved from my first test it is still not where I want to be. I put a lot of time into studying, going over practice questions, etc. Any tips for doing better on the next and getting over the disappointment? Thanks!
The healthcare provider is performing an assessment on a patient who is taking propranolol (Inderal) for supraventricular tachycardia. Which assessment finding is an indication the patient is experiencing an adverse effect of this drug? Bradycardia Paresthesia Urinary retention Dry mouth This question is from Khan Academy's NCLEX-RN practice. The correct answer was bradycardia. Wouldn't that be the desired effect in this case though?! Thanks!!
