Question 1 of 5
A nurse is monitoring for an infusion reaction for a client who is receiving a dose of IV amphotericin B. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse that the client is experiencing an acute infusion reaction?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Fever. An acute infusion reaction with IV amphotericin B can manifest as a fever due to a systemic inflammatory response. This can be a sign of a hypersensitivity reaction to the medication. Hyperglycemia (
A), dry cough (
B), and pedal edema (
C) are not typical findings of an acute infusion reaction with amphotericin B. Hyperglycemia may be seen with corticosteroid use, dry cough could suggest pulmonary issues, and pedal edema may indicate fluid overload or heart failure. Hence, fever is the most indicative of an acute infusion reaction in this scenario.
