Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing an adult client who is receiving morphine via continuous IV infusion. The nurse should identify that which of the following is the priority finding?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Respirations deep at a rate of 10/min is the priority finding because it indicates respiratory depression, a serious side effect of morphine. This can lead to hypoxia and respiratory arrest. Monitoring respiratory status is crucial to prevent adverse outcomes. Urinary output, vomiting, and blood pressure are important but do not pose immediate life-threatening risks like respiratory depression. Prioritizing the assessment of respiratory status ensures prompt intervention to prevent respiratory compromise.
