Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Hypotension. Verapamil is a calcium channel blocker that can cause vasodilation, leading to a decrease in blood pressure. Administering it by IV bolus can result in a rapid drop in blood pressure, causing hypotension. Monitoring for hypotension is crucial to prevent complications such as dizziness, syncope, or inadequate perfusion to vital organs. Muscle pain (
B), ototoxicity (
C), and hyperthermia (
D) are not commonly associated with verapamil administration. Monitoring for these adverse effects would not be relevant in this scenario.
