Question 1 of 5
A nurse is monitoring a client who received epinephrine for angioedema after a first dose of losartan. Which of the following data indicates a therapeutic response to the epinephrine?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Respirations are unlabored. This indicates a therapeutic response to epinephrine for angioedema. Epinephrine acts as a bronchodilator, improving airway patency and reducing respiratory distress. Unlabored respirations suggest improved air exchange and a positive response to the medication.
A: Peripheral edema is not a direct indicator of epinephrine effectiveness for angioedema.
C: Groin pain reduction may not be related to the expected response of epinephrine for angioedema.
D: Blood pressure levels do not directly reflect the effectiveness of epinephrine in treating angioedema.
In summary, the key to identifying the therapeutic response to epinephrine for angioedema is the improvement in respiratory status, making option B the correct choice.
