Ans: A
Feedback:
During antiarrhythmic drug therapy, the nurse should closely monitor the client's pulse rate. A change in the pulse rate and rhythm will help the nurse assess a response to drug therapy, the development of signs of heart failure, the development of a new cardiac arrhythmia, or worsening of the arrhythmia being treated. It is not necessary to monitor the tendon reflexes, hydration, or visual acuity when administering an antiarrhythmic drug to the client.
