pain relief and inflammation. However, it may not be suitable for this patient due to the potential risk of bleeding and interference with wound healing after surgery.
B. Docusate sodium: Docusate sodium is a stool softener commonly prescribed with opioids to prevent constipation, a common side effect of opioid use. It helps to prevent or alleviate opioid- induced constipation.
C. Naloxone: Naloxone is an opioid antagonist used to reverse the effects of opioid overdose. It is typically prescribed alongside opioids as a precautionary measure to counteract the respiratory
depression and sedation that can occur with opioid use. Administering naloxone can rapidly reverse these effects and restore normal breathing if opioid overdose is suspected.

D. Propofol: Propofol is a sedative-hypnotic medication used for anesthesia induction and
maintenance during surgical procedures. It is not typically prescribed for pain management after surgery.
E. Methadone: Methadone is an opioid agonist often used for managing chronic pain and opioid dependence. While it is an option for pain management, it may not be the first choice for acute post-operative pain relief.
F. SennA Senna is a stimulant laxative used to treat constipation. While constipation is a concern with opioid use, docusate sodium is more commonly prescribed initially for its stool softening effects

A. Initiate seizure precautions. B. Monitor serum potassium frequently. C. Assess pupillary response to light hourly. D. Measure urinary output every hour.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Initiate seizure precautions: Dopamine administration does not typically require seizure
precautions. The focus should be on monitoring for adverse effects related to blood pressure and urinary output.
B. Monitor serum potassium frequently: While electrolyte imbalances can occur with dopamine administration, the priority is to monitor urinary output as dopamine affects renal perfusion and urine output.
C. Assess pupillary response to light hourly: Monitoring pupillary response is important in some situations, but it's not the primary concern with dopamine administration.
D. Measure urinary output every hour: Correct! Dopamine is administered to improve renal perfusion and increase urine output in hypotensive patients. Monitoring urinary output every
hour is essential to assess the effectiveness of dopamine therapy and detect any signs of renal dysfunction or worsening hypotension.
