ANS: B

Feedback
A Incorrect: These are manifestations of quinidine toxicity.
B Correct: The nurse should assess the client's vital signs and notify the health care provider immediately.
C Incorrect: These are manifestations of quinidine toxicity. In addition, the client is drowsy and offering p.o. medication may result in aspiration.
D Incorrect: Bleeding is another toxic response to quinidine toxicity, so aspirin should not be administered to a client experiencing quinidine toxicity.
