medication question

Ditto

I would hold it ... But i would've call the MD just to double check. Maybe the patient is on it for another reason other than BP.

I would have given unless written parameters.

You can always go back to check how the patient reacted to the previous dose of that medication. Might help you determine if you need to question it. Also, check if this a new med for that pt or not.

I would give the medication. If sbp less than 100 then I would probably hold it

I would have given it, but if there were any other s/s that concerned you, check with MD to clarify if there shold be parameters specific to that pt.

I would have called MD. At the very least the MD needs to know that parameters are important to keep from getting called!

I would have given it also.

I would have looked at the BP trend and considered other meds given that effect BP.

If no issues there, I would have given it. New nurse may need to give her own freakin' meds if she is questioning you giving a medication over 6 mm Hg.

I would have given and monitor pt'bp.

Doesn't hurt to look at previous trends and assess the pt; if asymptomatic, no parameters, I would give it; otherwise clarify with the MD and be prepared to offer ranges in BP and pulse just in case they want parameters to be set.
