ATI Nproo 2100 Exam Unit 3 Fundamentals Exam Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A 70-year-old male receiving high-dose IV furosemide for heart failure complains of ringing in his ears and dizziness. His current labs show normal potassium and sodium levels. What is the nurse's most appropriate intervention?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Stop the furosemide infusion and notify the provider. The patient is exhibiting symptoms of ototoxicity, a known side effect of furosemide, indicated by ringing in the ears and dizziness. Despite normal potassium and sodium levels, these symptoms warrant immediate action. Stopping the infusion will help prevent further ototoxicity, and notifying the provider is crucial for assessment and potential alternative treatment options. Increasing the infusion rate without addressing the symptoms may exacerbate the issue. Administering potassium supplements is not indicated as potassium levels are already normal. Merely reassuring the patient without addressing the cause is inadequate.
