A nurse is collecting data from a client who is immobile and has a potential deepvein thrombosis.
Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?
because clammy skin is not a typical sign of DVT. It could indicate other conditions such as shock, anxiety, or infection.
because tortuous veins are not a specific indicator of DVT. They could be caused by other factors such as genetics, aging, or varicose veins.
because bradycardia, which is a slow heart rate, is not related to DVT. It could be a normal variation or a sign of heart problems. Normal ranges for heart rate are 60 to 100 beats per minute for adults and 70 to 120 beats per minute for children. Normal ranges for blood pressure are less than 120/80 mm Hg for adults and less than 90/60 mm Hg for children.
