Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Step 1: Identifying the client is crucial for correct blood transfusion to avoid errors. Step 2: Client identification includes verifying name, date of birth, and unique identifiers. Step 3: Ensuring correct patient prevents transfusion reactions and improves patient safety. Step 4: Monitoring vital signs and flow rate are important but secondary to client identification. Step 5: Maintaining blood temperature is not a primary concern during blood transfusion.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Cold sensitivity. Severe anemia leads to decreased oxygen delivery to tissues, causing symptoms like pallor, fatigue, and dyspnea on exertion due to the body compensating for low oxygen levels. Cold sensitivity is not a common symptom associated with anemia. The other choices are directly related to severe anemia due to the lack of oxygen delivery to tissues.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: B is correct because cystoclisis is the process of maintaining patency of a foley catheter by irrigating it with a sterile solution. This prevents blockages and promotes proper drainage. A, C, and D are incorrect because cystoclisis is not related to increasing bladder atony, removing blood clots, or altering urine specific gravity.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Muscle rigidity and spasms. Ketamine can cause muscle rigidity and spasms as a side effect. The anesthesiologist should monitor the client for this adverse reaction. Muscle rigidity and spasms are common with ketamine administration and can affect the client's comfort and safety during the procedure. It is important for the nurse to promptly address any signs of muscle rigidity or spasms to prevent complications. Summary of why other choices are incorrect: B: Hiccups - Ketamine can cause hiccups, but it is not the primary side effect to monitor for in this scenario. C: Extrapyramidal reactions - Ketamine does not typically cause extrapyramidal reactions. D: Respiratory depression - Ketamine is known for its minimal effect on respiratory depression compared to other anesthetics. Monitoring respiratory depression is still important, but not the primary concern with ketamine administration in this case.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, decreased body temperature and cold intolerance, because these are classic signs of hypothyroidism due to decreased thyroid hormone levels. The body's metabolism slows down, leading to a lower core body temperature and reduced ability to tolerate cold. Exophthalmos and conjunctival redness (choice A) are associated with hyperthyroidism. Flushed, warm, moist skin (choice B) is indicative of hyperthyroidism as well, due to increased metabolic rate. A systolic murmur at the left sternal border (choice C) is not a common finding in hypothyroidism.
