Question 1 of 5
A nurse is monitoring a client who is receiving a transfusion of packed RBCs. The nurse should identify which of the following findings as an indication of a febrile nonhemolytic reaction?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Chills. Febrile nonhemolytic reaction during a blood transfusion is characterized by the sudden onset of chills and fever. This occurs due to the recipient's immune system reacting to donor leukocytes. Dyspnea (
A) is more indicative of acute hemolytic reaction. Urticaria (
B) is associated with allergic reactions. Vomiting (
C) is not typically a sign of a febrile reaction. In summary, chills are the most specific finding for a febrile nonhemolytic reaction during a blood transfusion.
