The primary health care provider instructs the nurse to obtain the patient’s pain level every four hours. Which actions by the nurse help facilitate the pain assessment? Select all that apply.

The correct answer is choice C) Chest pain.

This is because chest pain can be a sign of a serious cardiovascular event, such as a heart attack or stroke, which can be fatal.

Celecoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that belongs to the class of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors.These drugs can increase the risk of cardiovascular thrombotic events, especially in patients with a history of heart disease or risk factors.

Therefore, the nurse should instruct the client to report chest pain immediately and seek emergency medical attention.

Choice A) Constipation is wrong because it is not a common or serious side effect of celecoxib.

Constipation can be caused by many factors, such as diet, dehydration, lack of exercise, or other medications.It can be managed by increasing fluid and fiber intake, using laxatives or stool softeners as needed, and consulting a doctor if it persists or worsens.

Choice B) Nausea is wrong because it is a common but mild side effect of celecoxib that usually goes away with time or can be reduced by taking the medication with food or milk.

Nausea is not a sign of a serious adverse reaction and does not require immediate medical attention.

Choice D) Headache is wrong because it is also a common but mild side effect of celecoxib that can be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers, such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen.

However, the client should avoid taking aspirin or other NSAIDs with celecoxib, as this can increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding and ulcers

The correct answer is choice D. The patient will experience improved mental status and oxygenation.This is because naloxone is a medication that can rapidly reverse an opioid overdose by blocking the effects of opioids and restoring normal breathing.Naloxone can be given as a nasal spray or an injection.

Choice A is wrong because naloxone does not increase euphoria and sedation, but rather reverses them by blocking opioid receptors.

Choice B is wrong because naloxone does not cause severe withdrawal symptoms and agitation, but rather mild to moderate ones that are not life-threatening.

Choice C is wrong because naloxone does not decrease respiratory rate and blood pressure, but rather increases them by reversing opioid overdose.

Normal ranges for respiratory rate are 12 to 20 breaths per minute and for blood pressure are 90/60 mmHg to 120/80 mmHg.
