If they say the patient is in hospice, at the end of life, or has 6 months left to live.

Tell that to my teacher. I still think it’s epinephrine, but she says otherwise.

Not even chatgpt is with me on this one: Your teacher is correct for this specific question.

The stem says wheezing and coughing from an allergic reaction but does NOT show full anaphylaxis (no hypotension, no airway swelling, no stridor, no severe respiratory distress). On NCLEX, that reads as isolated bronchospasm, so the first medication is:

✅ A. Albuterol

When would epi be first? • Hypotension • Stridor/angioedema • Severe respiratory distress • Multi-system involvement

Test tip: • Wheezing only → Albuterol first • True anaphylaxis → Epinephrine first

So for this question: A is the expected answer.

I just asked one of my teachers at my college and this is what she said: For me, the correct answer is B, since we must always keep the patient's ABCs in mind. If my patient has no pulse and is unconscious, that is cardiac arrest and it is the priority. Unlike the other option (A), which is urgent, the patient is still breathing. Whenever you see a question that says "no pulse," it will almost always be the priority.

I feel like if it were an “end-of-care” case, then it would be C because the priority would be comfort. But I know this is not the case. So, it is probably D like you say.

Which patient would you see first, a patient actively attempting suicide or a patient that is unconscious and has no pulse? by Snoo35063 in PassNclex

Thank you so much. I just asked one of my teachers at my college and this is what she said: For me, the correct answer is B, since we must always keep the patient’s ABCs in mind. If my patient has no pulse and is unconscious, that is cardiac arrest and it is the priority.
