Homework Answers
b. weight the client weekly.
Anorexia is a condition of decreased appetite. If the intake of the frequency of food decreases, the plasma glucose levels decrease. In these conditions, the body prefers to generate energy from lipolysis and proteolysis. The lipid metabolism produces ketone bodies and acetic acid as by-products. These ketone bodies impart acidic nature to the blood and urine and cause a pathological condition called “ketoacidosis.” Decreased glucose levels and blood pH causes cardiac arrhythmias.
Discuss food topics (i.e about the diet, eating manners, etc.) during mealtime is a characteristic of anorexic families. A liquid diet and the daily vital signs monitoring are not the nursing interventions appropriate for an anorexia patient.
Preventing further weight loss and promoting weight gain is the primary nursing goal for an anorexia patient. The expected weight gain in anorexia patients is about 1 lb (0.5 kg) per week.
