Select the 4 client findings that lead the nurse to suspect that the
client is experiencing thyroid storm.
- Mental status
- Heart rate
- Temperature
- Blood pressure
When analyzing cues, the nurse should identify that thyroid storm
can be caused by trauma to the thyroid gland, such as surgery, and
excessive release of thyroid hormone greatly increases the
metabolic rate. Fever greater than 38.5° C (101.3° F), heart rate
greater than 130/min, systolic hypertension, and mental status
changes, such as confusion, restlessness, and sleepiness, are
characteristic of thyroid storm.
