Assessment and Prevention of Immobility Complications
Assessment and Prevention of Immobility Complications ( 5 Questions)
Which assessment finding indicates a potential cardiovascular complication of immobility?
Increased heart rate may or may not be present in individuals with cardiovascular complications of immobility, and it is not a specific indicator.
Increased cardiac output is not typically associated with immobility-related cardiovascular complications.
Dependent edema, characterized by swelling in the dependent parts of the body, is a potential cardiovascular complication of immobility. It can occur due to impaired venous return and increased capillary permeability.
Although the blood pressure can be normal, it does not provide specific information about potential cardiovascular complications of immobility.
