Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who received two doses of albuterol via nebulizer. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect during an assessment?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Tremors. Albuterol is a bronchodilator that stimulates beta-2 adrenergic receptors, leading to bronchodilation and increased heart rate. Tremors are a common side effect due to stimulation of beta-2 receptors in skeletal muscles. Bradycardia (
A) is not expected as albuterol typically causes tachycardia. Wheezing (
B) would decrease after albuterol administration as it helps open airways. Sleepiness (
D) is not an anticipated side effect of albuterol, which usually causes alertness due to its stimulant effects.
