Question 1 of 5
A factory worker suffered a chemical burn to the eye and arrives at the Emergency department. What is the first action of the nurse?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The first action should be to flush the eye continuously with a sterile solution to remove the chemical and prevent further damage to the eye. This is important in cases of chemical burns to prevent the chemical from causing more harm or spreading to other parts of the eye. It is crucial to start immediate irrigation to promote the best possible outcome and help alleviate the pain and potential long-term damage. Once the eye has been thoroughly flushed, further assessment and appropriate treatment can be provided by the healthcare team.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is developing a teaching plan for a client diagnosed with diabetes insipidus. The nurse should include information about which hormone lacking in clients with diabetes insipidus?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Clients with diabetes insipidus lack antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin. ADH plays a crucial role in regulating the amount of water reabsorbed by the kidneys, thus maintaining the body's water balance. In diabetes insipidus, there is a deficiency or decreased response to ADH, leading to excessive urine production and consequent dehydration if not managed properly. Therefore, understanding the role and function of ADH is essential for the nurse to include in the teaching plan for a client diagnosed with diabetes insipidus.

Question 4 of 5
Which of the following outcomes would indicate successful treatment of diabetes insipidus?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Successful treatment of diabetes insipidus is indicated when the patient's excessive urination (polyuria) and thirst (polydipsia) are controlled. One of the primary goals of treatment is to achieve fluid balance by reducing urine output and, consequently, decreasing the excessive thirst. When the fluid intake is less than 2,500mL, it suggests that the patient's excessive thirst has decreased, indicating successful management of the condition. Monitoring and managing fluid intake are crucial in the treatment of diabetes insipidus to prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. A lower fluid intake is a positive indicator that the treatment is effectively addressing the increased urine output characteristic of diabetes insipidus.
