Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A client is recently diagnosed with pneumonia. The nurse observes the client sitting upright in the bed and assesses a respiratory rate of 26. The client states I can't catch my breath. Which abbreviation would be used to document this presentation?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: SOB. SOB stands for shortness of breath, which accurately describes the client's symptom of difficulty catching their breath, indicating respiratory distress. The client sitting upright and having an increased respiratory rate of 26 further supports the presence of respiratory distress.
A: R/O (rule out) is used to indicate a possible diagnosis that has not been confirmed yet, not appropriate in this context.
B: S/P (status post) is used to indicate a past medical event or surgery, not relevant to the client's current presentation.
D: DOB (date of birth) is not related to the client's respiratory symptoms and is not appropriate for this scenario.
