The nurse has obtained assessment data for a client who is scheduled for a cardiac angiogram (catheterization). Which information must the nurse report to the health care provider prior to the procedure?

A) Pedal pulses are +1 bilaterally: While this may indicate decreased perfusion, it is not an immediate concern that typically requires reporting before a cardiac angiogram. This finding should be monitored but does not usually contraindicate the procedure. B) Client has multiple food allergies: This information is critical to report prior to the procedure, especially if any of the allergies pertain to medications or contrast agents used during the angiogram. Knowing about allergies can help prevent potential allergic reactions during the procedure. C) Admission blood pressure is 110/70: This blood pressure reading is within an acceptable range for most patients. While the healthcare provider should be aware of baseline vitals, this alone does not necessitate immediate reporting. D) Client is slightly anxious: While anxiety is important to acknowledge and may require intervention, it is common for clients undergoing procedures. This does not typically need to be reported urgently to the healthcare provider prior to the angiogram.
