Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has asthma. The client asks the nurse how albuterol helps his breathing. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the response? (Select all that apply).
Correct Answer: B,C,D
Rationale: The correct answers are B, C, and D. Albuterol helps breathing by preventing wheezing (
B), opening the airways (
C), and decreasing coughing (
D). Wheezing is caused by narrowed airways due to inflammation in asthma, so preventing it helps improve airflow. Opening the airways allows more air to enter the lungs, making breathing easier. Decreasing coughing helps reduce airway irritation and allows for better lung function.
Choice A is incorrect as albuterol does not increase mucus production; it actually helps to decrease it by reducing inflammation.
Choices E, F, and G are not applicable as they were left blank.
