A nurse is preparing to administer vancomycin to a client who has an infected wound. The nurse should plan to monitor for which of the following adverse reactions?

A. Crepitus is a finding associated with subcutaneous emphysema or gas accumulation under the skin, typically not directly related to right ventricular heart failure.

B. Right ventricular heart failure can lead to increased pressure in the pulmonary artery, resulting in symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue, and possibly right-sided heart murmurs.

C. Hepatosplenomegaly (enlargement of the liver and spleen) is more commonly associated with conditions such as liver cirrhosis, not specifically right ventricular heart failure.

D. Confusion is not typically associated with right ventricular heart failure unless there are complications such as hypoxemia or impaired cerebral perfusion.

A. A child who has a forehead wound that is bleeding copiously: While bleeding wounds require attention, they are not immediately life-threatening compared to other injuries described.

B. A child who has a compound fracture of the femur and is crying in pain: While painful, a

femur fracture is not typically immediately life-threatening unless it is causing severe bleeding or compromising circulation.

C. A child who reports diplopia and nausea and was unconscious at the scene but is now awake:

These symptoms suggest potential head trauma and require urgent evaluation to assess for intracranial injuries.

D. A child who has several missing permanent teeth and a swollen, ecchymotic upper lip: These injuries, while concerning, are not immediately life-threatening compared to the potential head injury described in option C.
