Answer:

The LPN/LVN should check for any weight gain from fluid retention.

Explanation:

A heart rate of 110/min, has exceeded regular heart beats /min, thus this is a sign of tachycardia.Combined with shortness of breath and fatigue, incidentally  just a week after Myocardial infarction,then there  is a  like-hood of heart failure.

The sluggishness from  possible inability of the heart to circulate blood efficiently (heart failure)  may be due to retention of fluids in the heart. and the vascular systems. Therefore it is imperative for the LPN/LVN to check for  edema from venous  retention.

Are you suppose to rinse after brushing your teeth
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

no, Don't rinse with water straight after toothbrushing

After brushing, spit out any excess toothpaste. Don't rinse your mouth immediately after brushing, as it'll wash away the concentrated fluoride in the remaining toothpaste. This dilutes it and reduces its preventative effects.
