Question 1 of 5

The client with MS tells the nurse about extreme fatigue. Which assessment findings should the nurse identify as contributing to the client's fatigue? Select all that apply.

Correct Answer: A,B,D,E,F

Rationale: The lower-than-normal Hgb and Hct indicate anemia. Inadequate cell oxygenation contributes to fatigue. Baclofen (Lioresal), a skeletal muscle relaxant used to relieve spasms, has the adverse effects of drowsiness and fatigue. Working 4 to 8 hours per week is a limited number of hours and should not contribute to the client’s fatigue. The client has stopped amitriptyline (Elavil), an antidepressant, and may be clinically depressed. Fatigue is a major symptom of depression. A tricuspid murmur indicates an incompetent cardiac valve, which will decrease the amount of oxygenated blood reaching the tissues. The increased energy expenditure with ambulation can increase fatigue.
