Question 3 of 5
Which of the following meal choices is suitable for a 6-month-old infant?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rice cereal, formula, and apple juice are appropriate for a 6-month-old, as they are easily digestible and safe. Egg whites, whole milk, and orange juice are not recommended before 1 year due to allergy and digestive risks.
Question 4 of 5
The client is admitted to the intensive care unit with severe chest pain. Which information provides the nurse with the most data that can be utilized in planning care?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Vital signs include blood pressure, pulse, respirations, and temperature, providing the most comprehensive data for planning care in a client with severe chest pain. Blood pressure and pulse oximeter are included in vital signs, and EEG is irrelevant for chest pain.
Question 5 of 5
After abdominal surgery, a client has a nasogastric tube attached to low suctioning.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Nausea and decreased flow suggest possible NG tube obstruction. Aspirating gastric contents with a syringe confirms tube placement (pH 0-4) and checks for blockages, addressing the cause of symptoms. Irrigation should use normal saline after placement confirmation, and antiemetics or tube replacement do not assess tube function.
