Ati health assessment proctored exam
On examination, the nurse would expect what finding if a client is in right-sided heart failure?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Increased jugular venous pressure: Right-sided heart failure often leads to increased jugular venous pressure due to the backup of blood in the systemic venous system. B. Decreased right-sided volume: Right-sided heart failure typically results in increased blood volume in the right heart chambers, not decreased. C. Decreased stroke volume: While right-sided heart failure can affect stroke volume, increased jugular venous pressure is a more direct indicator of right-sided heart failure. D. Decreased central venous pressure: Right-sided heart failure usually results in increased, not decreased, central venous pressure.
