Question 1 of 5

A nurse is providing discharge teaching to a client who has a new arteriovenous fistula in the right forearm. Which of the following manifestations should the nurse include in the teaching as a possible indication of venous insufficiency?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Cold and numbness distal to the fistula site. This is indicative of venous insufficiency, which can occur when the arteriovenous fistula is not functioning properly. When there is inadequate blood flow through the fistula, it can result in reduced circulation to the distal part of the arm, leading to coldness and numbness. Swelling around the fistula (choice
B) is more commonly associated with infection or inadequate drainage. Bleeding from the fistula (choice
C) is a potential complication but not a typical manifestation of venous insufficiency. Pain at the site of the fistula (choice
D) may indicate infection or clotting issues rather than venous insufficiency.
