Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is in shock and is receiving an infusion of albumin. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Increase in BP. Albumin is a colloid solution used in shock to increase blood volume and improve circulation, which leads to an increase in blood pressure. PaCO2 and oxygen saturation levels would not be directly affected by albumin infusion. There would not be a decrease in protein since albumin is a protein itself.
Therefore, the nurse should monitor for an increase in blood pressure as the expected finding when a client in shock is receiving an infusion of albumin.
