Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has an acute respiratory failure (ARF). The nurse should monitor the client for which of the following manifestations of this condition? (Select all that apply.)

Correct Answer: A,B,C,E

Rationale: The correct manifestations to monitor for in a client with acute respiratory failure (ARF) are decreased level of consciousness (
A), hypercarbia (
B), severe dyspnea (
C), and tachycardia (E). 1) Decreased level of consciousness indicates poor oxygenation to the brain due to inadequate gas exchange. 2) Hypercarbia, an increased level of carbon dioxide in the blood, is a common finding in ARF as the lungs fail to adequately remove CO2. 3) Severe dyspnea is a hallmark sign of ARF, indicating the body's struggle to obtain adequate oxygen. 4) Tachycardia is the body's compensatory response to hypoxia and respiratory distress.

Choices D, F, and G are incorrect because nausea is not a typical manifestation of ARF, and options F and G are not provided.
