Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who has heart failure and is taking furosemide. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse that the client is experiencing fluid volume deficit?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Elevated hematocrit level. Furosemide is a diuretic that helps the body get rid of excess fluid, potentially leading to fluid volume deficit. When there is less fluid in the body, the concentration of red blood cells increases, causing an elevation in hematocrit levels. Distended neck veins (choice
A) are a sign of fluid volume overload, shortness of breath (choice
C) can be a symptom of heart failure and not specifically indicative of fluid volume deficit, and weight gain (choice
D) is also a sign of fluid volume overload rather than deficit.
