Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Difficulty speaking is a classic symptom of stroke, suggesting a potential blockage of blood flow to the brain. Prompt intervention is crucial to minimize brain damage. Elevated blood pressure (Choice A) may need management but is not the most urgent concern in this scenario. A blood glucose level of 180 mg/dL (Choice B) is slightly elevated but does not require immediate intervention for a suspected stroke. A temperature of 99.8�F (37.7�C) (Choice D) is within normal range and not a critical finding in this context.

'S1 murmur auscultated in supine position' provides a precise and objective assessment finding that can aid in accurately documenting the client's condition. Choices A, B, and D are more subjective statements that lack the specificity and clarity required for detailed documentation. 'Client appears anxious' and 'Client is resting quietly' are subjective observations, while 'Client's skin is warm and dry' is an objective finding but may not be as significant or relevant for comprehensive documentation as the auscultated murmur.
