Practice Question

A nurse is caring for a 4-year-old client in the emergency department.

Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

Nebulize with albuterol

Rationale:

💨Albuterol is a first-line bronchodilator for relieving bronchospasm in acute asthma.

💁‍♂️Oxygen therapy helps correct hypoxemia, as the child’s saturation is below normal.

📈Monitoring vitals is essential during asthma treatment to detect deterioration.

🛏️Semi-Fowler's position optimizes lung expansion and improves ventilation.

🚫Deep breathing exercises are inappropriate during severe distress and may worsen fatigue.

📌Core Message

Start with oxygen, bronchodilators, monitoring, and positioning to treat asthma exacerbations.
