Symptoms of hypocalcemia - ANSWER-- Numbness and tingling in the hands,
soles of the feet and around the lips.
- A nurse would assess the client for a positive reaction by eliciting the
Chvostek's sign.
What is a potential complication of a thyroidectomy? - ANSWER-- Hypocalcemia,
which can include numbness and tingling in the hands, soles of the feet and
around the lips.
What assessment tool would a nurse use to determine hypocalcemia? -
ANSWER-- Chvostek's sign
What is Chvostek's sign? And how is it done? - ANSWER-Tap on the pt's face at
a point just anterior to the ear and just below the zygomatic bone. A positive
response would be twitching of the ipsilateral (same side only) facial muscles,
suggestive of neuromuscular excitability caused by hypocalcemia.
Brudzinski's sign - ANSWER-- Is an indication of meningeal irritation, which may
be positive with pt's with meningitis.
- To perform this, the client needs to be supine. The nurse places one hand
behind the pt's head and places the other hand on the clients chest. The nurse
then raises the clients head (with the hand behind the head) while the hand on
the chest restrains the clients and prevents the client from rising. Flexion of the
clients lower extremities constitutes a positive sign.
Kernig's sign - ANSWER-- Is an indication of meningeal irritation. The maneuver
is usually performed with the client supine with hips and knees in flexion.
Extension of the knees is attempted and the inability to extend the clients knee
beyond 135 degrees w/out causing pain constitutes a positive test.
Babinski sign - ANSWER-- This is used to test for brain damage or upper motor
neuron damage. It is considered positive if the toes flare up upon stroking the
plantar aspect of the foot.
Cataract surgery discharge instructions - ANSWER-- Do not lift anything heavier
