Nursing care of the infant and child with congestive heart failure would include which of the following?

Rationale: A. Continuous monitoring of respirations during activity is not practical; monitoring should be ongoing but not limited to only active periods. B. Giving larger feedings less often increases the infant’s workload and fatigue. Smaller, more frequent feedings are preferred to reduce energy expenditure. C. Organizing care to allow for frequent rest and minimizing interruptions helps conserve energy and reduces cardiac workload in infants and children with congestive heart failure. D. Forcing fluids is contraindicated because it can worsen fluid overload in heart failure; fluid intake is usually carefully monitored and sometimes restricted.
