ATI N211 Pharmacology Exam I Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who is receiving a continuous IV infusion of dopamine. Which of the following findings should the nurse recognize as a therapeutic effect?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Increased urine output. Dopamine is a medication commonly used to improve renal perfusion and increase urine output in clients with low blood pressure or renal insufficiency. Dopamine dilates renal blood vessels, leading to increased blood flow to the kidneys and subsequently increased urine output. The other choices are incorrect because dopamine typically does not directly affect dysrhythmias (choice
A), pulse rate (choice
C), or blood pressure (choice
D) in a therapeutic manner.
Therefore, the nurse should recognize increased urine output as the desired therapeutic effect of dopamine infusion in this scenario.
