Which action should the nurse implement for an infant who develops heart failure?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most children with heart failure feel more comfortable in a semi-Fowler's position than in a supine position because the chest-elevated position lowers the abdominal contents, enlarging the thoracic cavity and allowing easier, more comfortable lung expansion. A child with heart failure does not need a milk restriction. The supine position will not help with lung expansion. An infant does not have a significant intake of salt.
