Question 1 of 5
For which of the following adverse effects should the nurse monitor?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Stevens-Johnson syndrome. This is a severe adverse reaction characterized by blistering and peeling of the skin, mucous membranes involvement, and flu-like symptoms. It is potentially life-threatening and requires immediate medical intervention. The nurse should monitor for early signs such as rash, fever, and mucosal lesions.
Choices A, B, and D are not typically associated with the medication's adverse effects. Hypotension is a common side effect of some medications but not the focus of monitoring for this specific drug. Prolonged wound healing is more related to factors like nutrition and comorbidities. Bradypnea (slow breathing) is not commonly associated with adverse effects of medications but could signify respiratory distress.
