Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who has pericarditis. Which of the following findings is the priority?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D - Substernal chest pain. Pericarditis is characterized by inflammation of the pericardium, causing chest pain. It is the priority finding because it indicates potential complications like cardiac tamponade or myocardial infarction. A: Dependent edema is not typically associated with pericarditis. B: Pericardial friction rub is a common finding in pericarditis but not a priority over chest pain. C: Paradoxical pulse is more indicative of conditions like cardiac tamponade.
Therefore, Substernal chest pain is the priority as it can lead to severe complications if not addressed promptly.
