Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a patient who wants to know how albuterol aids his breathing. What should the nurse's response be? How does albuterol aid breathing?
Correct Answer: B,C
Rationale: The correct answers are B and C. Albuterol aids breathing by preventing wheezing (choice
B) and opening the airways (choice
C). Albuterol is a bronchodilator that works by relaxing the muscles around the airways, allowing them to widen and making it easier to breathe.
Choices A, D, and E are incorrect because albuterol does not directly decrease coughing episodes, stimulate mucus flow, or reduce inflammation. The key is understanding albuterol's mechanism of action in dilating the airways to improve breathing.
