Question 1 of 5

A nurse in an emergency department is assessing a client who received epinephrine. Which of the following findings should the nurse report as an adverse effect of epinephrine?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Chest pain. Epinephrine is a sympathomimetic medication that stimulates the heart and blood vessels, which can result in an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. This increased cardiac workload may lead to chest pain as a potential adverse effect. Bradycardia (
A) would be an unexpected finding as epinephrine typically causes tachycardia. Respiratory depression (
C) is not a common adverse effect of epinephrine, as it primarily affects the cardiovascular system. Hypoglycemia (
D) can occur as epinephrine can stimulate the release of stored glucose, leading to hyperglycemia rather than hypoglycemia.
