Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The nurse's priority action when finding a client experiencing a seizure is to place the client on their side. This action helps maintain an open airway and prevents aspiration, which is crucial during a seizure. Applying oxygen may be necessary after ensuring a patent airway, while administering an anticonvulsant is not within the nurse's scope of practice during an acute seizure. Notifying the provider can be done after ensuring the client's immediate safety.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Verifying tube placement is the crucial initial step a nurse should take before administering enteral feedings through an NG tube. This step ensures that the tube is correctly positioned in the stomach, reducing the risk of complications such as aspiration. Measuring residual gastric volume, flushing the tube with water, or administering the feeding in small boluses are all important steps in enteral feeding but should only be done after confirming the correct tube placement.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. If sterile solution splashes onto the sterile field, it is considered contaminated. Changing gloves in this situation ensures that the sterility of the dressing change is maintained. Choice A is incorrect as non-sterile gloves would introduce contaminants. Choice B is incorrect as layering gloves can increase the risk of contamination. Choice D is incorrect as covering the sterile field with a sterile drape is not the appropriate action to take in response to contamination.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Nausea is a common sign of intolerance to enteral feedings and should be addressed promptly. Nausea can indicate various issues such as feeding intolerance, formula composition problems, or underlying medical conditions. Decreased heart rate, fever, and weight gain are not typical signs of feeding intolerance. Decreased heart rate and fever may indicate other medical conditions, while weight gain is not an immediate sign of intolerance to enteral feedings.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Use a special mattress to reduce pressure on the skin.' This intervention is crucial in preventing skin breakdown in clients with limited mobility as it helps to reduce pressure on bony prominences. Repositioning every 4 hours (Choice A) is important but may not be sufficient to prevent skin breakdown entirely. Applying lotion every 2 hours (Choice B) may not address the root cause of skin breakdown related to pressure. Increasing fluid intake (Choice D) is beneficial for overall skin health but may not directly prevent skin breakdown caused by pressure points.
