Question

You are doing an admission assessment on a client who is having outpatient testing done for cardiac problems. What should you ask this client during your assessment?

Answer 1

Answer:

Have you any episodes of dizziness or fainting?

Explanation:

During the assessment is important to ask if the patient had episodes of dizziness or fainting because this can be related to heart failure. Dizziness or fainting can be caused due to a heart that is not irrigating blood to all the body correctly, which leads to a lack of oxygen and nutrients to all the body, causing dizziness or faintings.
