Question 1 of 5
The client with cirrhosis is at risk for developing complications. Which condition is the most serious and potentially life-threatening?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: These are dilated veins in the esophagus that can rupture and lead to life-threatening bleeding. While concerning and indicative of hepatic encephalopathy, it is not immediately life-threatening like a variceal bleed. Indicates poor nutritional status and liver function but is not as acutely dangerous as bleeding varices. This is a concern but does not represent an immediate life-threatening condition like esophageal varices.
