B)
Congestive heart failure (CHF)
RATIONALE
Oprelvekin (Neumega) can cause cardiopulmonary
insufficiency with irregular heart rate and fluid retention. Thus, it is a
nursing priority to assess the client frequently for signs and symptoms of
congestive heart failure. The other options do not address this priority
concern. The core issue of the question is knowledge of adverse drug effects of
oprelvekin. Use specific nursing knowledge and the process of elimination to
make a selection.
