Quiz Endocrine Reproductive System & Respiratory Drugs Questions
Question 1 of 5
A patient is to receive 10 mg nalbuphine by slow intravenous push for pain relief during labor. During which phase of uterine contractions would the nurse plan to administer nalbuphine?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The nurse should plan to administer the nalbuphine between uterine contractions. This timing allows for optimal pain relief and minimizes the risk of impacting the contraction itself. Nalbuphine can affect the strength and duration of contractions, so administering it between contractions helps to avoid potential interference with the labor progress. This approach ensures that the medication is appropriately timed to provide pain relief without interfering with the natural process of labor.
Question 2 of 5
It is mandatory to have maternal signed consent before administering which newborn drug?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Maternal signed consent is mandatory before administering phytonadione (Vitamin K) to newborns. This is because Vitamin K is a medication that can prevent bleeding disorders in infants, and some parents may have concerns about the administration of medications to their newborns. It is crucial to ensure that parents are informed about the purpose and potential risks or benefits of Vitamin K administration before it is given to their newborn. Erythromycin eye ointment is typically administered to newborns to prevent eye infections, and parental consent may be needed but it is not mandatory in the same way as Vitamin K.

Question 4 of 5
per day asks about a contraception method that is best for her. She is normotensive and has used combined hormonal contraceptives in the past. She is in a monogamous relationship and has had two children with no complications during pregnancy. She is not planning any more pregnancies. The nurse determines that which method would be best for this patient?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: For the patient described, a levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) would be the best contraceptive method. This is because the patient has used combined hormonal contraceptives in the past without any complications and is not planning any more pregnancies. The LNG-IUS is a highly effective long-acting reversible contraceptive method that releases a progestin hormone (levonorgestrel) directly into the uterus. It is safe for use in women who are normotensive and have a history of uncomplicated pregnancies. Additionally, the LNG-IUS has contraceptive benefits such as reducing menstrual bleeding and cramping, making it an attractive option for women looking for a low-maintenance contraception method.
