Case #2
Mr. Bell, 76 years old, has been on the unit for the past 3 weeks with
liver failure. His treatment includes IV therapy of normal saline

3. Apply anti embolic stockings to his legs.
4.Decrease his caloric intake to 1400 calories daily.
Correct Answer: 1
1. Fluid accumulation can be increased by IV therapy.
2. Oxygen is only applied when oxygen saturation is decreased.
3. This will not have any effect on the abdomen.
4. Weight gain in liver failure is due to fluid accumulation, not caloric
intake.
5.What manifestations associated with liver failure should the practical
nurse report first?
1. Yellowing of sclerae.
2.Decreased appetite.
3.Increased respirations.
4.Decreased consciousness.

consciousness.
4. Hepatic encephalopathy is a central nervous system manifestation that
often leads to coma and death.
