What therapeutic effect does the nurse expect to identify when mannitol is administered parenterally to a client with cerebral edema?

This pressure, most likely caused by swelling on the brain, is generally caused by head traumas and can be life threatening. The administration of mannitol reduces this swelling thus decreasing the cranial pressure.
