Question 1 of 5

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

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Increased respiratory rate. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist that works by blocking the effects of opioids, such as morphine. By administering naloxone to the client experiencing an adverse reaction to morphine, the nurse can reverse the respiratory depression caused by the morphine. This reversal leads to an increase in the client's respiratory rate, which is a therapeutic effect of naloxone in this situation.

Incorrect choices:
A: Decreased nausea - Naloxone does not directly address nausea.
B: Increased pain relief - Naloxone does not provide pain relief but reverses the effects of opioids.
C: Decreased blood pressure - Naloxone may lead to an increase in blood pressure due to its effects on reversing opioid-induced respiratory depression.
