Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse administers naloxone to a client with opioid-induced respiratory depression. One hour later, nursing assessment reveals that the client has a respiratory rate of 4 breaths/minute, oxygen saturation of 75%, and is unable to be aroused. Which action should the nurse implement?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Persistent respiratory depression (4 breaths/minute, 75% oxygen saturation) suggests ongoing opioid toxicity. A second dose of naloxone is needed to reverse opioid effects, as the initial dose may have worn off or been insufficient. CPR, chest tubes, or GCS assessment do not address the opioid-related cause.
