Question 1 of 5

A client in active labor receives a regional anesthetic. Which is the main purpose of regional anesthetics?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B:
To provide general loss of sensation by blocking sensory nerves to an area. Regional anesthetics work by blocking specific nerve pathways in a targeted area, leading to loss of sensation while maintaining consciousness. This is ideal for laboring clients as it allows pain relief without affecting consciousness or motor function.
Choice A is incorrect as regional anesthetics do not aim to decrease consciousness.
Choice C is incorrect as regional anesthetics block sensory nerves locally, not descending impulses.
Choice D is incorrect as the goal is to block sensation locally, not perception in the brain.
