A client requires immediate volume replacement due to hypovolemic shock. Which blood product should the nurse anticipate administering to rapidly restore intravascular volume?

A) Incorrect: Increasing the rate of the blood transfusion is not the appropriate action when the client is experiencing respiratory distress. Rapid transfusion may exacerbate the TRALI and lead to further complications.

B) Correct: Administering oxygen via a nasal cannula or face mask is a priority action for a client experiencing respiratory distress. Providing supplemental oxygen can help improve oxygenation and prevent further complications.

C) Incorrect: Placing the client in a supine position with legs elevated is not the appropriate action for a client with respiratory distress. This position may worsen the client's breathing difficulties.

D) Incorrect: Restarting the transfusion with a different blood product is not indicated in the presence of suspected TRALI. The nurse's priority is to manage the client's respiratory distress and discontinue the transfusion if necessary.

A) Incorrect: Elevating the head of the bed may help promote lung expansion, but it is not the nurse's priority action when the client is experiencing severe symptoms like dyspnea, tachycardia, and chest pain during a transfusion.

B) Incorrect: Administering diuretics is not the appropriate action for the client's symptoms, which suggest a possible transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) or acute hemolytic transfusion reaction. Diuretics will not address the underlying cause.

C) Correct: The client's symptoms of dyspnea, tachycardia, and chest pain indicate a potential severe transfusion reaction. The nurse's priority action is to stop the transfusion immediately and notify the healthcare provider for further evaluation and intervention.

D) Incorrect: Continuing the transfusion at a slower rate is not appropriate when the client is experiencing severe symptoms. The nurse should first stop the transfusion and then notify the healthcare provider.
