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: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Chills. A febrile nonhemolytic reaction during a blood transfusion is characterized by the sudden onset of chills and fever, usually within the first 15 minutes to 2 hours of the transfusion. This reaction is caused by the recipient's antibodies reacting to donor leukocytes. Dyspnea (
A), urticaria (
B), and vomiting (
D) are more indicative of other transfusion reactions such as an allergic reaction, hemolytic reaction, or bacterial contamination, respectively.
