Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?
While headache can be a side effect of aspirin, it’s usually not severe enough to warrant reporting to the provider unless it’s persistent or severe.
Rhinitis, or inflammation of the mucous membrane of the nose, can be an allergic reaction to aspirin and should be reported to the provider.
Hematocrit (Hct) level of 43% is within the normal range for both men (38.8–50.0 %) and women (34.9–44.5 %), so this finding would not need to be reported.
A blood pressure reading of 120/70 mm Hg is within the normal range and would not need to be reported.
