Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who takes haloperidol (Haldol) for the treatment of schizophrenia. Which of the following findings should the nurse document as extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS)? Select all.

Correct Answer: B, C, E

Rationale: The correct answer is B, C, and E. Fine motor tremors, acute dystonias, and uncontrollable restlessness are all extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) commonly associated with haloperidol use. Fine motor tremors refer to involuntary shaking movements, acute dystonias are sudden muscle contractions causing abnormal postures, and uncontrollable restlessness is known as akathisia. These are classic EPS manifestations caused by dopamine blockade in the basal ganglia. Orthostatic hypotension (
A) is a side effect related to alpha-adrenergic blockade, not EPS. Decreased level of consciousness (
D) is not typically associated with EPS but may indicate overdose or other complications.
