A client is admitted for an elective transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). The client is receiving continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) after the procedure. In the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), the nurse takes the client's vital signs and checks the urinary drainage bag frequently. Which assessment finding should the nurse prioritize reporting to the provider as an indication of a possible complication?

A. Pink, frothy sputum is typically associated with left-sided heart failure and pulmonary edema. This occurs when fluid backs up into the lungs due to left-sided heart failure. Since the question pertains to right-sided heart failure, this statement is not consistent with that condition.

B. Feeling short of breath when lying flat is known as orthopnea and is more commonly associated with left-sided heart failure. It occurs due to fluid shifting into the lungs when supine, which aggravates pulmonary congestion. This statement is not consistent with right-sided heart failure.
C. Hearing fluid in the lungs typically indicates left-sided heart failure, where fluid backs up into the pulmonary circulation, causing pulmonary edema. This symptom is associated with left-sided heart failure rather than right-sided heart failure.
D. Swelling of the legs, also known as peripheral edema, is a hallmark of right-sided heart failure. This occurs because the right side of the heart is unable to effectively pump blood out to the lungs, leading to fluid accumulation in the systemic venous circulation and resulting in swelling in the lower extremities and sometimes the abdomen

A. Guillain-Barre Syndrome is not a contagious disease. It is an autoimmune disorder that occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the peripheral nerves. GBS is not spread through respiratory droplets or any other form of infection transmission.
B. Guillain-Barre Syndrome causes demyelination in the peripheral nervous system, not the central nervous system. The central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord, whereas the peripheral nervous system comprises the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord.
C. Guillain-Barre Syndrome is not a genetic disorder. It is considered an autoimmune condition that can be triggered by an infection or other environmental factors. While there may be genetic predispositions that affect susceptibility to autoimmune conditions, GBS itself is not classified as a genetic disorder.
D. Guillain-Barre Syndrome primarily affects the peripheral nervous system. It involves an immune- mediated attack on the peripheral nerves, leading to symptoms such as muscle weakness, tingling, and loss of reflexes.
