Answer :
The nurse must check the client regularly for dependent edema.
Swelling, or edema, happens when extra fluid accumulates in your body's tissues. Dependent edema only affects body parts that are subject to gravity, such your legs, feet, or arms. Medication side effects for illnesses like diabetes or high blood pressure may include edema.
If the client with cardiomyopathy takes a diuretic, the nurse should periodically check for dependant edema. Either continually or when dyspnea or dysrhythmias start to appear, oxygen is supplied.
Resting in bed is not required. The nurse should make sure that the client's activity level is decreased and should space out any mildly strenuous activities between rest intervals.
