Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client who has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is receiving albuterol via nebulizer. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Tremors in hands. Albuterol is a bronchodilator that can cause side effects like tremors, especially in the hands. The nurse should report this to the provider as it may indicate an adverse reaction or overdose. Reporting this finding promptly can help prevent further complications.
A: Heart rate 110/min is within normal limits and commonly seen with albuterol use.
B: Respiratory rate 20/min is within normal range and expected with COPD.
C: Oxygen saturation 95% is a good reading and shows effective oxygenation.
In summary, tremors in the hands are a significant finding that requires immediate attention, while the other options are within expected parameters for a client with COPD receiving albuterol.
