Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving diazepam as conscious sedation for an endoscopy, Which of the following antidotes should the nurse have on hand during the procedure?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct antidote to have on hand during conscious sedation with diazepam is Flumazenil. Diazepam is a benzodiazepine, and Flumazenil is a specific benzodiazepine receptor antagonist. It works by competitively binding to the benzodiazepine receptor, reversing the sedative effects of diazepam. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist used for opioid overdose, not benzodiazepines. Atropine is a muscarinic antagonist used for bradycardia or organophosphate poisoning, not benzodiazepines. Neostigmine is a cholinesterase inhibitor used for myasthenia gravis or to reverse neuromuscular blockade, not benzodiazepines.
