Question 1 of 5

A nurse is monitoring a client who is receiving a unit of packed red blood cells (RBCs) following surgery. Which of the following assessments is an indication that the client might be experiencing circulatory overload?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Dyspnea. Dyspnea, or difficulty breathing, is a common sign of circulatory overload, which can occur when too much fluid is administered too quickly, leading to an increase in blood volume and pressure on the heart. Bradycardia (
A) is a slow heart rate, typically not associated with circulatory overload. Flushing (
B) is often a sign of vasodilation, not necessarily circulatory overload. Vomiting (
C) can be a sign of various issues but not directly related to circulatory overload.
Therefore, dyspnea is the most relevant assessment indicating circulatory overload in a client receiving packed RBCs.
