Final answer:
The nurse should report a cool and clammy foot with delayed capillary refill and persistent hiccups to the provider.
Step-by-step explanation:
The nurse should report the following findings to the provider:
- Cool and clammy foot with capillary refill of 5 seconds: A cool and clammy foot with delayed capillary refill may indicate inadequate blood flow to the extremity, which could be a sign of a vascular complication or thromboembolism.
- Persistent hiccups: Persistent hiccups may indicate irritation or compression of the diaphragm, which could be a potential complication related to the venous pacemaker insertion.
