Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer mannitol IV to a client. The nurse should monitor the client for which of the following manifestations as an expected outcome of this medication?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Reduced intracranial pressure. Mannitol is an osmotic diuretic used to reduce intracranial pressure by drawing fluid out of brain tissues. This helps to decrease cerebral edema and improve blood flow in the brain. Monitoring for reduced intracranial pressure is essential to ensure the medication is working effectively.
Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because mannitol does not directly affect thyroxine levels, correct atrial flutter, or increase hemoglobin levels.
