Final answer:
The Valsalva maneuver is contraindicated in clients diagnosed with aortic stenosis because it can further restrict blood flow through the narrowed valve.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Valsalva maneuver is contraindicated in clients diagnosed with Aortic stenosis. Aortic stenosis is a condition in which the aortic valve narrows, reducing blood flow from the heart. During the Valsalva maneuver, the increased pressure in the chest can further restrict blood flow through the narrowed valve, potentially leading to complications.
