Which client in a cardiac step-down unit would the nurse monitor most closely for the development of cerebral vascular accident (CVA) or stroke?
1. An 80-year-old client whose cardiac monitor reveals bradycardia with a rate of 58
2. A 56-year-old client with a PR interval of 0.22 seconds
3. A 37-year-old client with recent-onset atrial fibrillation
4. A 63-year-old client with occasional premature ventricular contractions (PVCs)
