Extract:

A client who has asthma.


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who has asthma. Which of the following areas should the nurse evaluate as the most reliable indicator of central cyanosis?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Oral mucosa. Central cyanosis is caused by decreased oxygen levels in the arterial blood. The oral mucosa is a highly vascular area, making it a reliable indicator of central cyanosis as it reflects the oxygen saturation of arterial blood. Conjunctivae, ear lobes, and soles of the feet are less reliable indicators as they are not as vascular as the oral mucosa. Evaluating the oral mucosa can provide a quick and accurate assessment of central cyanosis in a client with asthma.
