Question

the nurse is caring for a client with a blood pressure of 210/100 mm hg in the emergency room. what is the most appropriate route of administration for antihypertensive agents?

Answer 1

Answer:

Okay, so normal pressure is 120/80 or lower. Blood pressure is considered high (stage 1) if it reads 130/80. Stage 2 high blood pressure is 140/90 or higher. Readings above 180/120 mmHg are considered stroke-level, which are dangerously high and are considered to be a Hypertensive crises and need treatment immediately.

The first goal is to bring down the blood pressure as quickly as possible.

Administer antihypertensive agents by intravenous (IV) to prevent damage or further organ damage. Next step, access damage of any internal organs and find cause of hypertension.
