A female client with iron-deficiency anemia is experiencing increased fatigue and a shiny red tongue. The nurse would anticipate seeing which additional assessment finding(s) (SELECT ALL THAT APPLY)

A. Bottle spoon-shaped fingernails: This is a classic sign associated with iron deficiency anemia, known as koilonychia. The nails may appear thin, brittle, and spoon-shaped, indicating a deficiency in iron. B. Platelets 400,000/µL: This platelet count is within the normal range (typically 150,000 to 450,000/µL) and does not specifically indicate iron deficiency anemia. Thus, it is not an expected finding. C. Red blood cell count 4.5 million/mm³: This value is within the normal range for females (approximately 4.2 to 5.4 million/mm³). In iron deficiency anemia, one would expect the RBC count to be low or at least on the lower end of normal. D. Hemoglobin 8.0 g/dL: This low hemoglobin level is indicative of anemia. In iron deficiency anemia, hemoglobin levels are often significantly decreased, so this finding aligns with the client's condition. E. Tachypnea: Increased respiratory rate can occur in response to anemia, as the body attempts to compensate for decreased oxygen-carrying capacity by increasing breathing rate. Therefore, tachypnea is a likely finding in this client.
