Question 1 of 5

A client diagnosed with acute respiratory failure has an oral endotracheal tube attached to a mechanical ventilator and is about to begin the weaning process. The nurse determines that which item, that was previously used to minimize the client's anxiety, should now be limited?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Antianxiety medications and opioid analgesics are used cautiously in the client who is being weaned from a mechanical ventilator. These medications may interfere with the weaning process by suppressing the respiratory drive. The client may exhibit anxiety during the weaning process for a variety of reasons; therefore, distractions such as radio, television, and visitors are still very useful.
