Explanation: All incidents, accidents, or occurrences that cause actual or potential harm to a client,
employee, or visitor must be reported. The person who witnesses an unusual occurrence or event must
file an incident report in the institution's computer documentation system using an electronic form.
Alternately, a paper form may be completed and filed. The purposes of the report are to inform risk
management of the occurrence, allowing them to consider changes that might prevent similar incidents,
and to notify administration of a potential litigation claim.
The nurse should not document that an incident report was filed, or refer to the incident report in the
medical record.
Which clinical manifestations would the nurse identify with severe anorexia nervosa? Select all that
apply.
1. Amenorrhea
2. Fluid and electrolyte imbalances
3. Heat intolerance
4. Presence of lanugo
, 5. Refusal to exercise
6. Weight loss of 25% below normal weight Correct Answer: 1,2,4,6
Explanation: Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder common among adolescents and young adults.
Clinical manifestations of anorexia nervosa include:
1. Fear of weight gain - clients resort to self-induced vomiting, extensive dieting, and intense exercise
resulting in excessive weight loss (<85% expected weight). Clients who self-induce vomiting may
experience enlargement of the salivary glands and erosion of tooth enamel.
2. Fluid and electrolyte imbalance - excessive vomiting can cause hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis
3. Amenorrhea - clients are often amenorrheic due to decreased body fat (low estrogen)
4. Decreased metabolic rate - severe weight loss results in hypotension, bradycardia, decreased body
temperature, and cold intolerance
5. Lanugo (fine terminal hair) can be seen in extreme cases
Manifestations of anorexia nervosa will resolve after the weight loss is corrected, although the recovery
process can take several months.
(Option 3) Anorexia nervosa manifests as cold intolerance.
(Option 5) Anorexia nervosa manifests as lengthy and vigorous exercise.

appropriate weight gain and nutritional intake.
