ANS: 4
Physical examination of a hypokalemic client may reveal weakness and fatigue, muscle weakness, nausea and vomiting, intestinal distention, decreased bowel sounds, decreased deep tendon re-flexes, ventricular dysrhythmias, paresthesias, and weak, irregular pulse. The remaining options are examples of hypernatremia, hyponatremia, and hyperkalemia.
