Extract:
Question 1 of 5
Which assessment requires the nurse to assess the patient further?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because a respiratory rate of 10/min in a 65-year-old is significantly below the normal range (12-20 breaths/min). This indicates potential respiratory distress or an underlying health issue. Further assessment is crucial to determine the cause and intervene promptly.
A: A pulse of 88 in a 40-year-old is within normal limits.
B: A pulse rate of 140 after exercise is expected and does not necessarily require further assessment.
C: A BP of 112/60 mmHg on awakening is within normal range.
Summary:
Choice D is correct as it indicates potential respiratory distress, while choices A, B, and C are within normal limits and do not require immediate further assessment.
