Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a prescription for metoclopramide. Which of the following outcomes should the nurse use to evaluate the effectiveness of this medication?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Reduced nausea. Metoclopramide is a medication commonly used to treat nausea and vomiting by increasing gastrointestinal motility.
Therefore, the nurse should evaluate the effectiveness of the medication based on the reduction of nausea symptoms in the client.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because metoclopramide is not indicated for treating cough, muscle relaxation, or pain. It is essential for the nurse to focus on the specific expected outcome related to the medication's intended purpose to assess its effectiveness accurately.
