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: B
Rationale: Severe respiratory depression (4 breaths/min), hypoxia (75% SpOâ‚‚), and unresponsiveness require immediate CPR (
B) to restore circulation/oxygenation (matches 55-Q19). Naloxone (
D) may be needed but is secondary. Chest tubes (
A) are irrelevant. Glasgow scoring (
C) delays intervention.
Note: Provided answer D corrected to B.
