A nurse is assessing a client who is recovering from subarachnoid hemorrhage following a fall. Which of the following medications should the nurse understand is a potential reason for the fall? (Select All that Apply.)

A. Rheumatoid arthritis: Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition characterized by chronic inflammation of the joints. Some research suggests a possible link between autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and Meniere's disease. Autoimmune conditions can affect the inner ear, leading to vestibular dysfunction and contributing to the development of Meniere's disease.

B. Bacterial pneumonia: Bacterial pneumonia is a respiratory infection caused by bacterial pathogens. There is no direct association between bacterial pneumonia and an increased risk of developing Meniere's disease. Meniere's disease primarily affects the inner ear and is not related to respiratory infections.

C. Macular degeneration: Macular degeneration is a degenerative eye disease that affects the central portion of the retina. There is no known association between macular degeneration and an increased risk of developing Meniere's disease. These conditions affect different parts of the body and are not related in terms of etiology or risk factors.

D. Osteoporosis: Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by loss of bone density, leading to an increased risk of fractures. There is no direct association between osteoporosis and an increased risk of developing Meniere's disease. These conditions affect different systems in the body and are not known to be related.

A. Limit exercise to 10 min, 2 days per week. This recommendation is incorrect. Regular physical activity is essential for heart health. The American Heart Association recommends at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic exercise per week, spread throughout the week.

B. Monitor blood pressure This recommendation is correct. Monitoring blood pressure is an essential aspect of heart disease prevention. High blood pressure (hypertension) is a significant risk factor for heart disease, so regular monitoring allows for early detection and management.

C. Lose weight if necessary. This recommendation is correct. Maintaining a healthy weight or losing weight if overweight or obese is important for heart disease prevention. Excess weight, especially around the abdomen, increases the risk of heart disease and other health conditions.

D. Eat a diet high in saturated fats. This recommendation is incorrect. A diet high in saturated fats is associated with an increased risk of heart disease. Instead, the nurse should encourage a heart-healthy diet that includes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.

E. Maintain current cholesterol level This recommendation is not entirely accurate. While maintaining healthy cholesterol levels is important for heart health, individuals with high cholesterol levels may need to take steps to lower their cholesterol through lifestyle modifications and, in some cases, medication. Therefore, simply maintaining current cholesterol levels may not be sufficient for heart disease prevention.
