Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving a continuous IV infusion of magnesium sulfate. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Respiratory rate of 10/min. This finding should be reported to the provider because a respiratory rate of 10/min is significantly below the normal range (12-20 breaths/min). It could indicate respiratory depression, a serious side effect of magnesium sulfate toxicity. Respiratory depression can progress to respiratory arrest, which is life-threatening.
Therefore, immediate intervention is required.
The other choices are incorrect because:
B: Patellar reflex of +2 is within the normal range, so it does not require immediate reporting.
C: Urine output of 40 mL/hr is adequate and does not indicate a problem with magnesium sulfate infusion.
D: Blood pressure of 130/80 mm Hg is within the normal range and does not suggest toxicity.
