A nurse is collecting data for a client who is receiving enteral tube feedings. The nurse should identify that which of the following findings is a manifestation of fluid overload?

Informed consent is a process where the healthcare provider explains the risks, benefits, and alternatives of a proposed procedure or treatment to the client. The client then demonstrates their understanding of this information and voluntarily agrees to undergo the procedure or treatment.

A. "I will have a large scar on my stomach after this procedure". This is incorrect for a vaginal hysterectomy, which does not involve an abdominal incision.

B. 'I am thankful I am done having children." This statement reflects an understanding of a key consequence of a hysterectomy, which is the removal of the uterus and the resulting inability to have children. This indicates that the client is aware of and accepts the major impact of the surgery on their reproductive capabilities.

C."I should expect my periods to resume in 1 month.": This is incorrect because the removal of the uterus means the client will no longer have menstrual periods.

D."I will no longer need a regular gynecological examination.": This is incorrect because regular gynecological examinations are still necessary to monitor overall reproductive health and screen for other conditions.

Including the client's physical assessment findings will provide important information to the physical therapist regarding the client's current condition, limitations, and areas that require rehabilitation or therapy.

While family medical history is important for comprehensive healthcare, it may not be specifically relevant to the referral for a physical therapist unless there is a specific genetic or familial condition that could impact the therapy or rehabilitation process.

Medical health insurance claims are primarily related to billing and reimbursement and may not provide pertinent information to the physical therapist unless there are specific coverage limitations or requirements that need to be considered.

While medication history is important for overall healthcare management, it may not be directly relevant to the referral for a physical therapist unless there are specific medications that could affect the therapy or rehabilitation process (e.g., medications that may cause drowsiness or affect balance).
