Question 1 of 5
In which disease process should a nurse expect to see a client with the presence of pitting edema?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Pitting edema is commonly seen in liver disease, especially in conditions like cirrhosis. Liver disease can lead to hypoalbuminemia, where low levels of albumin in the blood cause fluid to leak into the interstitial spaces, resulting in edema. Additionally, liver disease often leads to portal hypertension, which can also contribute to the development of edema.
