A nurse is assessing a client who was placed in restraints for aggressive behavior. The client is now calm and cooperative. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Choice A reason: Fibromyalgia, a chronic pain condition, is not a contraindication for oral contraceptives. Estrogen and progesterone do not exacerbate fibromyalgia’s musculoskeletal or neurological symptoms, as they primarily affect hormonal pathways, making contraceptives safe for use in clients with this condition.
Choice B reason: Hypertension is a contraindication for oral contraceptives, as estrogen increases renin-angiotensin activity, elevating blood pressure. This risks cardiovascular events like stroke or myocardial infarction, especially in clients with existing hypertension, necessitating alternative contraception to avoid vascular complications.
Choice C reason: Iron-deficiency anemia is not a contraindication, as oral contraceptives may reduce menstrual bleeding, improving anemia by decreasing iron loss. Their hormonal effects do not impact erythropoiesis, making them potentially beneficial for anemic clients, unlike hypertension, which poses risks.
Choice D reason: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is not a contraindication, as it affects cervical epithelium, not hormonal pathways. While some studies suggest a weak link to cervical cancer, HPV vaccination and screening mitigate risks, making oral contraceptives safe for clients with HPV.

Choice A reason: Occasional mild nausea is common in early pregnancy due to hormonal changes and does not typically require reporting unless severe or persistent. It is not a concerning finding at 14 weeks, so this is incorrect for urgent reporting.
Choice B reason: Mild ankle swelling in the evening can be normal due to fluid retention but is not urgent unless accompanied by other preeclampsia signs. It is less critical than bleeding, so this is incorrect for priority reporting.
Choice C reason: Vaginal bleeding at 14 weeks is abnormal and may indicate miscarriage, placental issues, or other complications, requiring immediate reporting to the provider for evaluation. This finding is critical at 14 weeks gestation, aligning with obstetric emergency protocols, making it the correct choice for teaching.
Choice D reason: Increased appetite is normal in pregnancy as nutritional needs rise and does not warrant urgent reporting. It reflects healthy adaptation rather than a complication, so this is incorrect for inclusion in teaching about concerning findings.
