Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. "A heart murmur is a high-pitched sound due to a narrow valve." Not all murmurs are high-pitched, nor are they always due to a narrow valve.

B. "This means that there is some inflammation around your heart." A murmur does not indicate inflammation around the heart; it typically indicates abnormal blood flow.

C. "This indicates turbulent blood flow through a valve." A heart murmur is caused by turbulent blood flow, often through a damaged or abnormal valve.

D. "A heart murmur is an extra sound due to blood entering an inflexible chamber." While inflexible chambers can cause extra heart sounds, this does not describe a murmur.

A. "I am constipated." B. "My vision seems yellow C. "My tongue is red and beefy." D. "I am gaining weight."

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. "I am constipated." Constipation is not a common indicator of digoxin toxicity; it may be more related to diet or other medications.

B. "My vision seems yellow." Yellow or blurred vision, also called xanthopsia, is a classic sign of digoxin toxicity and should be reported immediately.

C. "My tongue is red and beefy." A red and beefy tongue may indicate vitamin B12 deficiency, not digoxin toxicity.

D. "I am gaining weight." Weight gain is usually a sign of fluid retention or worsening heart failure, not specifically digoxin toxicity.
