Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reteplase is a thrombolytic medication that can increase the risk of abnormal bleeding, such as internal bleeding or hemorrhage. Therefore, monitoring for signs of bleeding and assessing for any increase in bleeding is a priority assessment. While the other options may still be important to assess, they are not directly related to the administration of reteplase.
