Question 1 of 5

A client is admitted to the postpartum unit and tells the nurse she had rheumatic fever as a child, which resulted in some “heart damage”. The nurse knows that this client is at particular risk for developing heart failure during the immediate postpartum period. Based on this client's history, which nursing problem has the highest priority?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Fluid volume excess is the highest priority for a client with a history of rheumatic fever and heart damage. Rheumatic heart disease can result in impaired heart function, making it difficult for the heart to handle increased fluid volumes that occur during pregnancy and the postpartum period.
