What do you think?

ABC is what i think it is

[Alisonisayoshi, LVN]

What's your rationale for ABC?

[CarrieSheppard]

I would think an unusual elevation would be related to stress and exercise. The other three options are activities of daily living. While they can change, stress and exercise typically don't have the same regulation factors so I think they are eliminated. Am I correct and did that help?

ABC and D. Temp does not contribute to b/p. Stress can elevate b/p. Heart rate and b/p can be related to compensate for each other. Appetite .... Hmmmm. Maybe not. But hunger can lead to stress can affect b/p. Especially if malnutrition is a factor. And exercise for sure. One that exercises regularly may have a normally lower b/p. Or may be elevated immediately after exercising. Just like very fit athletes have a lower resting heart rate they may tend to run in the lower end of normal for a resting b/p. Come to think of it, body temp can affect b/p. But only to the extreme like with heat stroke or hypothermia. When the body goes into shock the b/p drops and the heart rate increase.

I think its a b and e

ABE makes more sense,how does an appetite elevate bp ,besides it didn't say anything specific about appetite whether the client had one or not
