Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client who is taking digoxin to treat chronic heart failure. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse that the client is developing digoxin toxicity?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Blurred vision indicates digoxin toxicity. Digoxin toxicity can cause visual disturbances, such as blurred or yellow-tinted vision. This is due to the drug's effects on the optic nerve. Tachycardia (
A) is not a common sign of digoxin toxicity; in fact, digoxin usually slows the heart rate. Hearing loss (
B) and insomnia (
C) are not typical symptoms of digoxin toxicity. Blurred vision is a key indicator of digoxin toxicity and should prompt immediate action to prevent further complications.
