A nurse in an emergency department is assessing a client who received epinephrine.
Which of the following findings should the nurse report as an adverse effect of epinephrine?

A) "You will have a central line placed to receive TPN." - TPN is typically administered via a central line to ensure rapid and efficient delivery into the bloodstream.

B) "Your blood sugar will be checked once a day." - Blood sugar monitoring may be necessary, but the frequency of monitoring can vary based on the client's condition and TPN content.

C) "You will be weighed twice a week while receiving TPN." - Weighing frequency may vary based on the healthcare provider's orders and the client's condition but is not directly related to TPN administration.

D) "Your intake and output will be measured every 2 days." - Intake and output monitoring is important but may need to be more frequent depending on the client's condition and TPN therapy.

A. Contact the provider: "NOW" is not a standard dosing instruction. It's unclear whether the medication is intended for immediate administration or not. A healthcare professional needs to clarify the intended use with the prescriber before administering the medication.

B. Inform the client there is a prescription available if needed: This doesn't address the immediate need for clarification regarding the "NOW" instruction.

C. Administer the medication within 90 min.: There's no standard timeframe associated with "NOW." Administering without clarification could be unsafe.

D. Notify the pharmacy to send the medication immediately: This focuses on obtaining the medication but doesn't address the unclear dosing instructions.
