تمرين 9

Mrs. J is an alcoholic who has previously reported that she has not eaten "food" for at least the past 3 months. She stated that her primary source of kilocalories has been alcohol. After her treatment for alcohol withdrawal on another unit, she was transferred to the unit where you work. The physician has ordered a high-kilocalorie, highprotein diet. So far, she has eaten 100% of the three high-kilocalorie, high-protein trays she has received while on your unit. While reviewing the client's laboratory values, you notice her serum phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium levels have just recently decreased. 1.Mrs. J's depressed phosphorus values may be related to:
A) A movement of phosphorus into the extracellular space
B) A total compartmental depletion of phosphorus
C) A lack of phosphorus in 1.Mrs. J's present dietary intake
D) A movement of phosphorus into the intracellular space
