Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a school-age child who is receiving morphine. For which of the following adverse effects should the nurse monitor?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Bradypnea. Morphine is an opioid that can cause respiratory depression, leading to bradypnea (slow breathing). The nurse should monitor the child's respiratory rate regularly as a safety precaution. Hypertension (
A), Stevens-Johnson syndrome (
C), and prolonged wound healing (
D) are not typically associated with morphine use in school-age children. Monitoring for these adverse effects would not be a priority in this situation.
