The best choice for the child following a tonsillectomy is:

Correct Answer: C

Question 2 of 5

A client with leukemia has been receiving injections of Neulasta (pegfilgrastim). Which laboratory value reveals that the drug is producing the desired effect?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Neulasta (pegfilgrastim) stimulates the production of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell, to reduce the risk of infection in clients with neutropenia.

Hemoglobin relates to red blood cells, platelet count relates to clotting, and iron level is unrelated to Neulasta's action.
