consistent with myopathy, hepatotoxicity, or hyperlipidemia. Each finding
may support more than one disease process or none at all. There must
,be at least 1 selection in every column. There does not need to be a
selection in every row. - ANSWER ✔✔When analyzing cues, the
nurse should recognize that manifestations of myopathy include muscle
pain and elevated creatine kinase, which occur when the medications
break down muscles into myoglobin and are released into the
bloodstream. If left untreated, myopathy can progress to
rhabdomyolysis. The myoglobin released from the muscles can travel to
the kidneys and damage the kidney and cause kidney failure. The nurse
should recognize the manifestations of hepatoxicity include abdominal
pain and elevated liver function enzymes called alanine
aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). The
nurse should recognize that the client continues to have manifestations
of hyperlipidemia with treatment, including elevated cholesterol and LDL
cholesterol. The combination of taking ezetimibe, a cholesterol
absorption inhibitor medication, and an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor
increases the client's risk for hepatotoxicity and myopathy.
