A nurse is caring for a pregnant client with severe preeclampsia who is receiving IV magnesium sulfate.Select all nursing interventions that apply in the care for the client.

Choice A rationaleHourly monitoring of deep tendon reflexes is crucial in clients receiving magnesium sulfate for severe preeclampsia. Magnesium sulfate acts as a central nervous system depressant, and diminished or absent deep tendon reflexes (normal range: 2+ to 4+) can indicate magnesium toxicity, necessitating immediate intervention to prevent serious complications like respiratory depression.Choice B rationaleA urinary output of less than 30 mL per hour signals potential renal hypoperfusion, which can be exacerbated by severe preeclampsia and magnesium sulfate administration. Reduced kidney function can lead to the accumulation of magnesium, increasing the risk of toxicity. Prompt notification of the physician allows for timely adjustments in the treatment plan.Choice C rationaleCalcium gluconate is the antidote for magnesium sulfate overdose. Having it readily available is essential in case the client exhibits signs of magnesium toxicity, such as respiratory depression, severe hypotension, or loss of reflexes. Prompt administration of calcium gluconate can reverse the effects of magnesium and prevent life-threatening complications.Choice E rationaleHourly monitoring of intake and output is vital to assess fluid balance and renal function in pregnant clients with severe preeclampsia receiving magnesium sulfate. Accurate measurement helps in detecting oliguria, a sign of worsening preeclampsia or magnesium toxicity, allowing for timely interventions to maintain adequate hydration and prevent complications.Choice F rationaleSevere preeclampsia significantly impacts both renal and cardiac function due to widespread vasoconstriction and endothelial dysfunction. Close monitoring of these systems through laboratory tests (e.g., serum creatinine, BUN, electrolytes, ECG) and clinical assessments is essential to detect and manage potential complications such as acute kidney injury, heart failure, and arrhythmias.
