ATI RN Pharmacology 2019 II Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is administering naloxone to a client who has developed an adverse action to morphine. The nurse should identify which of the following findings as a therapeutic effect of naloxone?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Increased respiratory rate. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist that reverses the effects of opioid medications like morphine. Morphine can cause respiratory depression, so administering naloxone will reverse this effect, leading to an increase in the client's respiratory rate. This is a therapeutic effect as it helps restore normal breathing and prevent further complications.
Incorrect choices:
A: Increased pain relief - Naloxone does not directly provide pain relief but reverses the effects of opioids.
C: Decreased blood pressure - Naloxone may cause a transient increase in blood pressure due to its stimulatory effect on the body.
D: Decreased nausea - Naloxone does not directly affect nausea but focuses on reversing opioid effects.
