A nurse is assessing a client who has right-sided heart failure. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Hepatomegaly is correct. Right-sided heart failure leads to systemic venous congestion, which can cause liver enlargement (hepatomegaly), ascites, and peripheral edema. Dizziness is more commonly associated with left-sided heart failure due to decreased cardiac output.
