Question 1 of 5
A health care provider orders 0.5 mg of protamine sulfate for a client who is showing signs of bleeding after receiving a 100-unit dose of heparin. The nurse should expect the effects of the protamine sulfate to be noted in which of the following time frames?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Protamine sulfate neutralizes heparin rapidly, with effects typically seen within 20 minutes of administration. This allows for quick reversal of heparin's anticoagulant effects in cases of bleeding. The other time frames are either too short or too long.
