Answer:
The LPN/LVN should check for any weight gain from fluid retention.
Explanation:
A heart rate of 110/min, has exceeded regular heart beats /min, thus this is a sign of tachycardia.Combined with shortness of breath and fatigue, incidentally just a week after Myocardial infarction,then there is a like-hood of heart failure.
The sluggishness from possible inability of the heart to circulate blood efficiently (heart failure) may be due to retention of fluids in the heart. and the vascular systems. Therefore it is imperative for the LPN/LVN to check for edema from venous retention.
