Question 1 of 5
What is the highest priority nursing diagnosis for a client with a history of urinary urgency who is taking oxybutynin (Ditropan)?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Risk for altered comfort: dry mouth. Oxybutynin is an anticholinergic medication that can cause side effects like dry mouth. Prioritizing the nursing diagnosis of altered comfort related to dry mouth is essential to address the client's immediate discomfort and potential impact on oral health.
Choice A is incorrect because urinary urgency is not directly related to impaired urinary elimination.
Choices B and C are unrelated to the client's current situation.
Therefore, the highest priority is addressing the client's discomfort due to dry mouth.
