问题 单项选择题

The physician prescribes several drugs for a client with hemorrhagic stroke. Which drug order should the nurse question

A.Heparin sodium (Hep-Lock).

B.Dexamethasone (Deeadron).

C.Methyldopa (Aldomet).

D.Phenytoin (Dilantin).

答案

参考答案:A

解析:Administration of heparin, an anticoagulant, could increase the bleeding associated with hemorrhagic stroke. Therefore, the nurse should question this order to prevent additional hemorrhage in the brain. For a client with hemorrhagic shock, dexamethasone may be used to decrease cerebral edema and pressure; methyldopa, to decrease blood pressure; and phenytoin, to prevent seizures.
