The nurse is assessing a client's cardiovascular status within the comprehensive health history. What should the nurse include in this section of the assessment? (Select all that apply.)

Rationale: A. Blood pressure pattern: Monitoring blood pressure patterns is essential for evaluating cardiovascular health as it provides information on hypertension or hypotension, which are significant for heart function. B. Dyspnea: Dyspnea (difficulty breathing) can indicate cardiovascular issues such as heart failure, making it a relevant aspect of cardiovascular assessment. C. Vision Acuity: While vision acuity is important for overall health, it is not directly related to cardiovascular assessment and does not provide specific information about heart or vascular health. D. Peripheral Edema: Peripheral edema (swelling in the extremities) can be a sign of cardiovascular problems like heart failure or venous insufficiency, thus important for cardiovascular assessment. E. Constipation: Although constipation affects general health, it does not directly relate to cardiovascular assessment and is not typically included in this context.
