Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A client presents to the emergency healthcare setting and diagnosed with a life-threatening ventricular dysrhythmia. Which of the following medications would the nurse begin to prepare?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Procainamide. This medication is a Class I antiarrhythmic drug that is effective in treating ventricular dysrhythmias. It works by blocking sodium channels in the heart muscle, helping to stabilize the heart's electrical activity. Atenolol (
A) and Lisinopril (
B) are not appropriate for ventricular dysrhythmias as they are beta-blockers and ACE inhibitors, respectively. Adenosine (
D) is used for supraventricular tachycardias, not ventricular dysrhythmias.
Therefore, procainamide is the most appropriate choice in this scenario.
