Question 1 of 5

The nurse is performing an assessment on a pregnant client with a history of cardiac disease. Which body area will venous congestion most commonly be noted in?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Assessment of the cardiovascular system includes observation for venous congestion that can develop into varicosities. Venous congestion is most commonly noted in the legs, the vulva, or the rectum. Although edema may be noted in the fingers and around the eyes, edema in these areas would not be directly associated with venous congestion. It would be difficult to assess for edema in the abdominal area of a client who is pregnant.
