Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a toddler who has heart failure. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Orthopnea. In heart failure, fluid accumulates in the lungs, causing difficulty breathing when lying flat. Orthopnea is a classic symptom where the toddler feels relief when sitting up or standing. Bradycardia (
A) is not typically seen in heart failure but rather in advanced cases. Weight loss (
B) is unlikely as heart failure often leads to fluid retention and weight gain. Increased urine output (
D) is not expected as heart failure can lead to decreased renal perfusion and oliguria.
