For a client newly diagnosed with radiation-induced thrombocytopenia, the nurse should include which intervention in the plan of care?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Providing for frequent rest periods is the most appropriate intervention for a client newly diagnosed with radiation-induced thrombocytopenia. Thrombocytopenia is characterized by a decreased number of platelets, which are essential for blood clotting. Clients with thrombocytopenia are at an increased risk for bleeding and bruising. Therefore, it is important to prevent activities that may lead to injury or bleeding. Providing frequent rest periods allows the client to conserve energy and minimize the risk of trauma that could lead to bleeding complications. This intervention helps manage the symptoms associated with thrombocytopenia and promotes the client's safety and well-being.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Hypotension, which is low blood pressure, can be an adverse reaction to glipizide (Glucotrol). Glipizide is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes by helping to control blood sugar levels. Hypotension could occur as a side effect of glipizide, causing symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, and fainting. If a patient experiences hypotension while taking glipizide, medical attention should be sought immediately to address this potentially serious adverse reaction.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The measurement is consistently low, indicating it is neither close to the true value (inaccurate) nor consistent with the reference range.
