Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the medical record of a client who is to start using a scopolamine patch for postoperative nausea and vomiting. Which of the following findings is a contraindication for the client to receive the medication?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Narrow-angle glaucoma. Scopolamine can cause pupillary dilation, leading to an increase in intraocular pressure, which can worsen narrow-angle glaucoma. This can potentially result in a sudden increase in pressure within the eye, leading to severe pain, vision changes, and even blindness.
Therefore, it is crucial to avoid giving scopolamine to clients with narrow-angle glaucoma to prevent these serious complications.


Choice A: Ménière's disease is not a contraindication for scopolamine patch use.

Choice B: Increased lacrimation is not a contraindication for scopolamine patch use.

Choice D: Urinary frequency is not a contraindication for scopolamine patch use.
