Asthma

A nurse is caring for a 65-year-old client with COPD exacerbation and a history of asthma who has been receiving continuous nebulizer treatments for the past 2 hours and is not responding adequately to initial bronchodilator therapy. The client's peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) remains at 35% of personal best, oxygen saturation is 90% on 4L nasal cannula, and the client appears increasingly anxious and fatigued. What is the nurse's priority intervention?

The nurse must determine the most appropriate immediate intervention for a client with severe asthma exacerbation who is not responding adequately to initial bronchodilator therapy.
해설
With PEFR 35%, SpO2 90% on oxygen, and fatigue/anxiety despite bronchodilators, the client shows signs of impending respiratory failure, making preparation for intubation the priority. Other options are insufficient (increasing oxygen or albuterol) or not immediately life-saving (corticosteroids).
