A nurse is caring for a client who is in premature labor and is receiving terbutaline. The nurse should monitor the client for which of the following adverse effects that should be reported to the provider?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Dyspnea. Terbutaline is a beta-adrenergic agonist that can cause pulmonary edema as a serious adverse effect.

This adverse effect should be reported promptly to the provider for further evaluation and management to prevent complications.
Incorrect choices:
B: Headaches - Headaches are a common side effect of terbutaline but are not as concerning as respiratory distress.
C: Nervousness - Nervousness is a common side effect of terbutaline and does not typically require immediate reporting unless severe.
