Question 1 of 5

The nurse is reinforcing teaching about how to use a metered-dose inhaler to a 9-year-old with asthma. Place the nurse's instructions in the appropriate order. All options must be used.

Correct Answer: E,A,B,C,F,D

Rationale: The correct order is: 1) Shake the inhaler and attach it to spacer (prepares medication); 2) Exhale completely (clears lungs); 3) Deliver one puff into spacer (releases medication); 4) Place lips tightly around the mouthpiece (ensures delivery); 5) Take a slow deep breath, and hold it for 10 seconds (allows medication absorption); 6) Rinse mouth with water (prevents oral thrush).

Question 2 of 5

The nurse is assessing a 12 year-old who has hemophilia A. Which finding would the nurse anticipate?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Hemophilia A is characterized by an absence or deficiency of Factor VIII.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is talking with the parent of a 14-month-old client who was exposed to measles 2 days ago. The client has not received the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine. Which of the following statements would be most appropriate for the nurse to make?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Post-exposure MMR vaccination within 72 hours can prevent measles in unvaccinated individuals. Monitoring temperature or assuming no symptoms means no infection is incorrect, as measles has an incubation period. Measles spreads via respiratory droplets, not just rash contact.

Question 4 of 5

The nurse is monitoring a client who is going through barbiturate withdrawal. Which symptom is of most concern to the nurse?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Seizures in barbiturate withdrawal are life-threatening, requiring immediate intervention, unlike nausea, anxiety, or hallucinations.

Question 5 of 5

The home care nurse is observing the client's spouse performing a colostomy irrigation. Which action needs correction?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Petroleum jelly is not suitable for lubricating colostomy irrigation catheters, as it may degrade materials or harbor bacteria; water-soluble lubricant is preferred. The height, volume, and position are appropriate.
