Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing the newborn of a client who took a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) during pregnancy. Which of the following manifestations should the nurse identify as an indication of withdrawal from an SSRI?
Correct Answer: C, D
Rationale: The correct manifestations of SSRI withdrawal in a newborn are bradypnea (
C) and vomiting (
D). SSRI use during pregnancy can lead to neonatal withdrawal symptoms due to drug exposure in utero. Bradypnea is a common withdrawal symptom characterized by slow breathing rate in newborns. Vomiting is another withdrawal symptom that can occur in newborns exposed to SSRIs. Large for gestational age (
A) and hyperglycemia (
B) are not typical manifestations of SSRI withdrawal.
Therefore, the nurse should focus on monitoring for bradypnea and vomiting as signs of SSRI withdrawal in the newborn.
