The school nurse is required to administer 0.2 mL of 1/1000 solution of epinephrine SC during an asthma attack. How does the school nurse evaluate the effectiveness of this intervention?
(A) A side effect of epinephrine is fatal ventricular fibrillation owing to its effects on cardiac stimulation. (B) Medications used to treat asthma are designed to decrease bronchospasm, not to increase expectorate of secretions. (C) Epinephrine decreased inspiratory difficulty by stimulating -, 1, and 2-receptors causing sympathomimetic stimulation (e.g., bronchodilation).

George Commented on September 26, 2025 I cleared the NCLEX-RN with help from Free-Braindumps.com exam questions. Their free questions felt close to the real exam and gave me solid view. Reviewing rationales daily improved my understanding. Stay consistent, focus on concepts, and you’ll build the confidence to pass. The exam is really hard. So don't take it easy. Portugal
