Extract:
A nurse is providing care for an infant who has heart failure and is being discharged from the hospital.
Question 1 of 5
When reinforcing discharge education, which of the following clinical manifestations should the nurse ensure caregivers are able to identify as signs of worsening heart failure?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. Tachypnea and diaphoresis with feeding, poor weight gain, and irritability are signs of worsening heart failure in infants. Tachypnea indicates increased work of breathing due to fluid overload in the lungs. Diaphoresis with feeding suggests increased effort in feeding due to heart failure. Poor weight gain is a result of the heart's inability to pump effectively. Irritability can be a sign of inadequate oxygenation. A: Cough, edema, and increased work of breathing can be seen in heart failure but are not specific to worsening heart failure. C: Abdominal pain and poor appetite are not typical manifestations of worsening heart failure. D: Bradycardia and rapid weight gain are not typical signs of worsening heart failure in infants.
