The nurse coming on duty gets a laboratory report on an assigned child, and the serum sodium level is reported as 133 milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L). The nurse would expect this client with a 133 mEq/L sodium level to:
 
  a. be experiencing headache, muscle weakness, and abdominal cramps
  b. have flushed skin, an elevated temperature, and intense thirst
  c. have a slow pulse rate, decreased respirations, and elevated blood pressure
  d. appear perfectly normal because this is a normal serum sodium level for a child
