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: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Increase in BP. Albumin is a colloid solution that helps increase blood volume and subsequently improves blood pressure in shock patients. Increasing blood volume leads to an increase in blood pressure. Option A is incorrect because oxygen saturation is not directly affected by albumin infusion. Option B is incorrect because a low PaCO2 level is not a direct effect of albumin infusion. Option D is incorrect because albumin is a protein and its infusion would not lead to a decrease in protein levels.
