A nurse is assisting in the care of a client who is scheduled to receive electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Which of the following is the nurse's role during the informed consent process?

A. Lanugo refers to fine, soft hair that can develop on the face, back, and other parts of the body in response to malnutrition and low body fat. It is a compensatory mechanism to help regulate body temperature in individuals with severe weight loss, including those with anorexia nervosa. Therefore, the nurse should expect to find lanugo in a client with anorexia nervosa.
B. Cold extremities are a common finding in individuals with anorexia nervosa due to reduced body fat and poor circulation. The body's natural response to conserve heat is impaired when body fat is extremely low. Therefore, cold extremities are expected in clients with anorexia nervosa.
C. Hypotension, or low blood pressure, can occur in individuals with anorexia nervosa due to dehydration, electrolyte imbalances (such as low potassium levels), and reduced cardiac output. These conditions are often associated with severe malnutrition and can lead to cardiovascular complications. Therefore, hypotension is a potential finding in clients with anorexia nervosa.
D. Tooth erosion can result from frequent vomiting, which is a behavior sometimes seen in individuals with anorexia nervosa, particularly those with purging subtype (anorexia nervosa binge-eating/purging type). Stomach acid from vomiting can damage tooth enamel over time, leading to tooth erosion. Therefore, the nurse should expect to find tooth erosion in clients who engage in purging behaviors.
E. Diarrhea is less commonly associated with anorexia nervosa. Individuals with anorexia nervosa typically have reduced food intake, which can lead to constipation rather than diarrhea. However, in some cases, diarrhea can occur due to malnutrition-related changes in bowel function. It is not a consistent finding but can occasionally be observed.

A. This is not typically associated with antisocial personality disorder. People with ASPD often exhibit a lack of remorse and guilt, and they may be prone to impulsive and risk-taking behaviors rather than excessive anxiety.
B. Exploitation of others is a hallmark feature of antisocial personality disorder. Individuals with ASPD may manipulate, exploit, or deceive others for personal gain without regard for others' feelings or rights.
C. Withdrawn behaviors, where individuals tend to isolate themselves or avoid social interactions, are not characteristic of antisocial personality disorder. In fact, individuals with ASPD tend to be socially charming and may seek out social situations to manipulate or exploit others.
D. Blunted affect refers to a reduced emotional expression, which is not typically a prominent feature of antisocial personality disorder. Individuals with ASPD may exhibit superficial charm and can be engaging, although they may lack empathy or genuine emotional responsiveness.
