Question 1 of 5

A male client receives a scopolamine transdermal patch 2 hours before surgery. Four hours after surgery, the client tells the nurse that he is experiencing pain and asks why the patch is not working. Which action should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Scopolamine prevents postoperative nausea, not pain. Explaining its purpose clarifies the client’s misunderstanding. Placement checks, expired effects, or new patches do not address the pain, which requires separate analgesia.
