Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for an 84-year-old male client in the medical unit. The client was admitted from a provider’s office with complaints of fatigue, dizziness, and shortness of breath. The nurse reviews the client’s medical records to prepare the client’s plan of care. Complete the diagram by dragging from the choices below to specify what condition the client is most likely experiencing, 2 actions the nurse should take to address that condition, and 2 parameters the nurse should monitor to assess the client’s progress.
Correct Answer: A,C,D,E
Rationale: The correct answer is A,C,D,E. Firstly, the client is likely experiencing anemia based on the symptoms of fatigue, dizziness, and shortness of breath.
Therefore, administering prescribed medications (
C) to address the anemia is crucial. Teaching the client about the condition (
A) helps improve understanding and compliance. Monitoring vital signs (
D) is essential to track the client's response to treatment. Scheduling a follow-up appointment with a specialist (E) ensures ongoing evaluation and management. Encouraging intake of a low-sodium diet (
B) is not directly related to anemia and may not be the priority in this case. Blood pressure (G) monitoring is important but not specific to anemia.
