Question

Which of these signs suggests that a male client with the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion is experiencing complications? A Tetanic contractions B Neck vein distention C Weight loss D Polyuria

Answer 1

Option B (Neck vein distention) is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

• SIADH accumulation induces overconsumption of the antidiuretic hormone, leading to insulin resistance. Significant SIADH could lead to problems including certain overloading of the vascular fluid, indicated by obstruction of the neck vein.
• No tetanic contractions interact with that kind of condition. It can give rise to excess weight as well as water retention.

Some other available scenarios in question are not relevant to just the given circumstance. But the above is indeed the correct one.
