Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client IS min after administering morphine sulfate 2 mg via IV push. The nurse should identify which of the following findings as an adverse effect of the medication?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Respiratory rate 8/min. Morphine sulfate is an opioid that can cause respiratory depression as a side effect. A respiratory rate of 8/min is significantly lower than the normal range (12-20/min), indicating potential respiratory depression. This is a serious adverse effect that requires immediate intervention to prevent respiratory failure.

Choices A, B, and C are not indicative of respiratory depression.
Choice A shows a normal oxygen saturation level, choice B indicates pain which is expected after administration of morphine, and choice C describes drowsiness which is a common side effect of opioids but does not indicate respiratory depression.
