ANS: b
Feedback
a. Emotional stress increases cardiac workload; however, without symptoms of cardiac decompensation, this is not immediately concerning.
b. Increasing dyspnea, at rest, can be a sign of cardiac decompensation leading to increased congestive heart failure.
c. Mild edema during the third trimester is normal. However, increasing edema and pitting edema should be reported as they can be a sign of increasing CHF.
d. A weight gain of 1 pound per week is expected during the third trimester.
