A nurse is caring for a client who has a new prescription for atenolol. For which of the following adverse effects should the nurse monitor the client?

a. Circular, erythematous patches on the scalp: This description is more indicative of tinea capitis, a fungal infection affecting the scalp.

b. Recent exposure to poison ivy: Poison ivy exposure would result in a contact dermatitis rash, not tinea pedis.

c. Scaling and redness between the toes: Tinea pedis, also known as athlete's foot, commonly presents with scaling, redness, and itching between the toes.

d. A recent prescription for an antiseizure medication: Antiseizure medications are not associated with the development of tinea pedis.

a. Turn the client so the cast will dry on all sides: While ensuring the cast is dry is important, the first priority following a surgical procedure is to assess neurovascular status to detect any

complications.

b. Remove the window and view the incision: Removing the window may compromise the cast's integrity, and the priority is to assess neurovascular status before inspecting the incision.

c. Medicate the client for pain: Pain management is important, but assessing neurovascular status is the initial priority to ensure there are no complications affecting circulation.

d. Perform neurovascular checks of the affected extremity: Neurovascular checks are the priority to detect any signs of impaired circulation or nerve function.
