The items that should be clustered together are the client's complaints of abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, as well as her history of pelvic inflammatory disease. These symptoms may indicate an exacerbation of the client's previous condition, and should be further assessed and treated. The client's vital signs and history of childbirth or mitral valve prolapse are not directly related to the current complaints and should be assessed separately.
