Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving mydriatic eye drops. Which of the following manifestations indicate to the nurse that the client has developed a systemic anticholinergic effect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Constipation. Mydriatic eye drops contain anticholinergic agents that can lead to systemic absorption, causing anticholinergic effects like constipation. Anticholinergic medications inhibit the parasympathetic nervous system, leading to decreased GI motility and constipation. Hypothermia (choice
A) is not typically associated with anticholinergic effects. Bradycardia (choice
B) is more commonly associated with cholinergic effects. Seizures (choice
C) are not a typical anticholinergic effect.
Therefore, constipation is the most likely manifestation of systemic anticholinergic effects in this scenario.
