The nurse has a "hunch" that the patient's elevated blood pressure is due to pain level;
however, the patient received blood pressure and pain medication 45 minutes ago.
What should the nurse consider in regards to this hunch?

a. Research supports that the pain and blood pressure medications will take 30 minutes
to become effective. The nurse should wait until the next prescribed time and reevaluate
pain level.
b. The nurse should consider consulting with the pain management team to evaluate
the effectiveness of the pain medication regimen.
c. The nurse should disregard the hunch because hunches are not effective at
incorporating evidence-based practices.
d. The nurse should administer pain medication based on the hunch. ✅b. The nurse
should consider consulting with the pain management team to evaluate the
effectiveness of the pain medication regimen

team substantiate the hunch would be a collaborative approach and would provide
additional reinforcement for the hunch)
