Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who has a fever,an infection of a flank incision and is in severe pain. Which type of pulse rate would the client most likely exhibit?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Tachycardia. When a client is experiencing fever, infection, and severe pain, the body responds by increasing the heart rate to meet the increased demand for oxygen and nutrients. This results in tachycardia, which is an elevated heart rate above the normal range. Bradycardia (
A) is a slow heart rate, not expected in this scenario. Bigeminal (
B) refers to a specific type of heart rhythm where every other heartbeat is premature and can occur in certain conditions, but it is not directly related to the client's symptoms. Dysrhythmia (
C) is an abnormal heart rhythm, which may occur but is not the most likely pulse rate in this situation.
