A nurse is caring for a client who has atopic dermatitis and a prescription for triamcinolone
ointment. The nurse should assess the client to monitor for which of the following adverse
effects?

FLAG
A nurse is assessing a client who has left-sided heart failure. Which of the following findings
should the nurse identify as a manifestation of left-sided heart failure?
Dependent edema
The nurse should identify that dependent edema is a manifestation of right-sided heart failure
due to right ventricular failure and fluid retention from pressure building up in the venous
system.
Jugular distention
The nurse should identify that jugular vein distention is a manifestation of right-sided heart
failure due to right ventricular failure and fluid retention from pressure building up in the
venous system.

The nurse should identify that weight gain is a manifestation of right-sided heart failure due to
right ventricular failure and fluid retention from pressure building up in the venous system.
Frothy sputum
