The nurse performs an assessment on a client diagnosed with emphysema. Which of the following would be found on examination? A. Trachea is deviated B Hyperresonance to percussion results in reduced exchange of carbon dioxide with oxygen. Means, less carbon dioxide is eliminated than the normal. C. Abundant mucus production D. An overweight client The signs and symptoms of emphysema include, barrel chest, increased expiration time, hyperresonance upon percussion, and reduced breath sounds Q38. A client is diagnosed with pneumonia. Chest X- ray shows consolidation of the right lower lobe. ABG on this client would show: A. Metabolic acidosis B. Respiratory alkalosis O Respiratory acidosis D. Metabolic alkalosis Consolidation of right lower lobe in pneumonia reduce the expiratory capacity of the lungs, which increase the carbon dioxide levels and cause acidosis.
