Question 1 of 5

A nurse is planning care for a client who is 1 hr postpartum and has peripartum cardiomyopathy. Which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Assess blood pressure twice daily. This is crucial as peripartum cardiomyopathy can lead to heart failure and hypertension, affecting the client's blood pressure. Monitoring blood pressure twice daily allows for early detection of any changes and timely intervention. Obtaining a prescription for misoprostol (
A) is not indicated as it is used for preventing gastric ulcers, not related to peripartum cardiomyopathy. Restricting oral fluid intake (
C) may worsen the client's condition as adequate hydration is important for cardiac function. Administering an IV bolus of lactated Ringer's (
D) could potentially worsen fluid overload and exacerbate heart failure.
