Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Decreased abdominal distention. This finding indicates that the client is tolerating the feeding well without experiencing bloating or discomfort. Nausea and vomiting (choice A) are symptoms of intolerance to enteral feedings. Normal bowel sounds (choice B) are a good sign but do not directly indicate tolerance to the feeding. Weight gain (choice C) may occur due to factors other than enteral feedings.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Decrease in elasticity. As individuals age, their skin tends to lose elasticity, becoming less flexible. This results in wrinkles and sagging skin. Option A, increase in oil production, is not typically an expected integumentary change in older adults. Option C, increase in pigmentation, may occur due to sun exposure or age spots but is not a universal change. Option D, decrease in moisture levels, is not a primary integumentary change associated with aging.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: After administering a narcotic medication, any unused portion should be discarded with another nurse as a witness. This procedure ensures proper disposal of controlled substances and prevents misuse or diversion. Storing it for later use (Choice B) is not appropriate due to safety concerns and legal regulations. Returning it to the pharmacy (Choice D) is also not recommended as the medication is already out of the pharmacy's control. Documenting the amount wasted (Choice A) is important for accurate record-keeping but does not address the immediate need for safe disposal of the unused narcotic medication.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct first action for the nurse in this scenario is to recheck the blood pressure. This step is crucial to confirm the accuracy of the initial reading. Administering antihypertensive medication without verifying the blood pressure could lead to inappropriate treatment. Notifying the healthcare provider can be done after ensuring the accuracy of the reading. Simply documenting the blood pressure without validation may result in acting on potentially incorrect information. Therefore, the priority is to recheck the blood pressure.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The ventrogluteal site is the preferred site for intramuscular injections to avoid injury to nerves or blood vessels. The deltoid site is commonly used for vaccines but has a higher risk of hitting the radial nerve. The rectus femoris site is not typically recommended for intramuscular injections. The dorsogluteal site is contraindicated due to the proximity to the sciatic nerve and major blood vessels.
