Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client who received hydromorphone 4 mg IV 15 min ago. The client has a respiratory rate of 10/min. The nurse should prepare to administer which of the following medications?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Naloxone. The client's respiratory rate of 10/min after receiving hydromorphone indicates opioid overdose. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist that reverses the effects of opioids, including respiratory depression. Administering naloxone will help reverse the respiratory depression caused by hydromorphone. Diazepam (
A) is a benzodiazepine used for anxiety and seizures, not for opioid overdose. Acetaminophen (
B) and ibuprofen (
C) are non-opioid analgesics and will not address the respiratory depression.
