A nurse is collecting data from a client who takes metformin for type 2 diabetes. Which of the following medications is contraindicated for this client due its effect on blood glucose levels?

A. Bradycardia:
Explanation: Bradycardia refers to a slow heart rate. In hypervolemia (fluid overload), the heart often compensates by increasing the heart rate rather than causing bradycardia.

B. Oliguria:
Explanation: Oliguria refers to decreased urine output. In hypervolemia, the increased fluid volume can lead to increased urine output rather than oliguria.

C. Peripheral Edema:
Explanation: Peripheral edema, or swelling in the extremities, is a common manifestation of hypervolemia. Excess fluid can accumulate in the tissues.

D. Hypotension:
Explanation: Hypertension, not hypotension, is more commonly associated with hypervolemia. The increased volume of fluid in the blood vessels can lead to elevated blood pressure.

A. BMI of 20:
A BMI of 20 is within the normal range. While extremes of BMI, either low or high, can contribute to health issues, a BMI of 20 alone may not significantly increase the risk of pressure injuries.

B. Peripheral neuropathy:
Peripheral neuropathy, which involves damage to the nerves in the extremities, can lead to decreased sensation and awareness. Clients with peripheral neuropathy may have difficulty sensing pressure, friction, or discomfort, making them more susceptible to pressure injuries.

C. Immobility:
Immobility is a significant risk factor for pressure injuries. Clients who are unable to change positions frequently are more likely to develop pressure points, particularly over bony prominences. Regular repositioning is essential to prevent pressure injuries in immobile individuals.

D. Hypoperfusion:
Hypoperfusion, or inadequate blood flow to tissues, can compromise tissue viability. Proper blood circulation is crucial for delivering oxygen and nutrients to the skin and underlying tissues. Impaired perfusion can contribute to tissue damage and increase the risk of pressure injuries.

E. Prealbumin level of 16 mg/dL:
Prealbumin is a marker of nutritional status. A low prealbumin level (16 mg/dL) indicates malnutrition, which can impair the body's ability to repair and maintain tissues, including the skin. Malnourished individuals are at an increased risk of developing pressure injuries.
