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. This is the priority finding because it indicates potential respiratory depression, a serious side effect of morphine. Slow, deep respirations at a rate of 10/min could lead to hypoxia and respiratory arrest. Monitoring respiratory status is crucial when administering opioids.
B. Urinary output of 20 mL within 1 hr is low but not as immediately life-threatening as respiratory depression.
C. Vomiting 30 mL of fluid, while a potential concern, is not as critical as respiratory depression.
D. Blood pressure of 90/60 mm Hg is low but not the priority when compared to respiratory status.
