  nurse finds the client restless and perspiring. His pulse is 130 beats/min. He shouts There are bugs
  crawling on my bed. I have got to get out of here, and begins to thrash about. The most accurate

  a. is attempting to obtain attention by manipulating staff.
  b. may have sustained a head injury before admission.
  c. is having a recurrence of an acute psychosis.
  d. is demonstrating symptoms consistent with withdrawal delirium.
