ATI RN Capstone Proctored Comprehensive Assessment A Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer naloxone IV bolus to a client who has opioid use disorder and has developed acute opioid toxicity. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Check the client's vital signs every 15 min. This is crucial because naloxone can cause rapid reversal of opioid effects, leading to potential adverse reactions such as hypertension, tachycardia, and pulmonary edema. Monitoring vital signs frequently allows the nurse to promptly identify and manage these complications.


Choice B is incorrect because giving naloxone slowly for 15 seconds may delay the onset of action and compromise the client's safety in cases of opioid toxicity.
Choice C is incorrect as the onset of naloxone typically occurs within minutes, not 15 minutes.
Choice D is incorrect as the effects of naloxone are short-acting and do not last for 24 hours.
