Question: 1 / 400

A 31-year-old female is experiencing an acute asthma attack. She is conscious and alert, but in obvious respiratory distress. After assisting her with her prescribed MDI, you should:

administer another treatment in 30 seconds if she is still in distress

After assisting the patient with her prescribed MDI, you should administer another treatment in 30 seconds if she is still in distress. This is the most appropriate course of action because the patient is still experiencing respiratory distress and may need additional medication to alleviate her symptoms. Option B is incorrect because it is not immediately relevant to the patient's condition. Option C would be appropriate if the patient's condition does not improve after the second treatment. Option D is also incorrect because the patient's response to the medication should be documented regardless of whether she needs another treatment or not.
