Rationale: Age-related vision changes include decreased lens elasticity (

Question 2 of 5

A four-year-old with cystic fibrosis has a prescription for Creon (pancrelipase). The medication is given to:

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Creon (pancrelipase) replaces pancreatic enzymes in cystic fibrosis patients, aiding digestion of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. It does not affect respiratory secretions, clotting, or nasal polyps.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is caring for a client with a history of asthma. Which medication should the nurse anticipate being ordered for an acute asthma attack?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Albuterol, a short-acting beta-agonist, is the first-line treatment for acute asthma attacks, providing rapid bronchodilation. Prednisone is for long-term control, theophylline is less commonly used, and montelukast is for maintenance therapy.

Question 4 of 5

The nurse is assessing a client with suspected hypercalcemia. Which finding is most consistent with this condition?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Hypercalcemia causes constipation due to reduced gastrointestinal motility. Muscle weakness, hypotension, and bradypnea are more common than hypertension or tachypnea.

Question 5 of 5

The nurse is caring for a 2-year-old girl with a subdural hematoma of the temporal area as a result of falling out of bed and notices that she has a runny nose. The nurse should:

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The nasal discharge could be due to a cold. It is necessary to gather additional assessment data to identify a possible cerebrospinal fluid leak. If the discharge is cerebrospinal fluid, it would not be safe to encourage the girl to blow her nose. Cerebrospinal fluid is positive for sugar; mucus is not. Turning her to her side will have no effect on her 'runny nose.' It is necessary to gather further assessment data.
