A nurse is collecting nutritional data from a group of adult clients. For which of the following clients should the nurse recommend an interprofessional care conference with a dietitian?

A. Copy of the client's advance directives: While advance directives are important documents, they are typically filed with the medical record, not specifically included in postmortem documentation. The focus for postmortem documentation is on the body and relevant events surrounding the death.

B. Cause of the client's death.: The cause of death is typically recorded in the official death certificate, which is not part of postmortem nursing documentation. The nurse should not make a diagnosis about the cause of death but may note any relevant findings.

C. Last set of the client's vital signs: Vital signs taken at the time of death may be noted as part of the clinical documentation, but they are not specifically part of postmortem documentation. The postmortem documentation should focus on observations regarding the body and its condition.

D. Location of the identification tag on the client’s body: The nurse should document the location of identification tags on the body to ensure proper identification and to prevent confusion or errors in postmortem care. This is an important detail in postmortem documentation.

A. Tachycardia: This is correct. Tachycardia is one of the hallmark signs of thyroid storm, a life-threatening complication of hyperthyroidism (often seen in Graves' disease.. The excessive thyroid hormone leads to severe metabolic disturbances, including an increased heart rate.

B. Hypotension: Hypotension is not typically a feature of thyroid storm. In fact, thyroid storm is more commonly associated with hypertension due to the increased heart rate and metabolic activity.

C. Neck pain: Neck pain is not a common symptom of thyroid storm. Neck pain might be related to other conditions, such as thyroiditis or a goiter, but not specifically thyroid storm.

D. Respiratory depression: Respiratory depression is not a typical symptom of thyroid storm. On the contrary, thyroid storm often leads to symptoms like hyperventilation, not depressed breathing.
