Question 2 of 5
Which of the ff must the nurse consider when administering IV fluids to clients with hypertension?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: When administering IV fluids to clients with hypertension, the nurse must closely monitor the site and progress of the infusion every hour to ensure proper hydration and detect any signs of complications such as infiltration or infection. Checking the blood pressure every hour, as in choice A, may not be necessary unless specifically indicated by the healthcare provider. Checking the progress of the infusion once a day, as in choice C, does not provide adequate monitoring for a client with hypertension who may be at higher risk for fluid volume overload. Checking the client's pulse rate every hour, as in choice D, is important but does not directly address the immediate monitoring needs related to the administration of IV fluids.
Question 3 of 5
Mr. Dela Isla said he cannot comprehend what the nurse was saying. He suffers from:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Aphasia is a communication disorder that affects a person's ability to understand and/or produce language. In this case, Mr. Dela Isla's inability to comprehend what the nurse was saying suggests a possible impairment in his language comprehension abilities, pointing towards aphasia as the most likely condition. Symptoms of aphasia can vary depending on the type and severity of the condition, but the common feature is difficulty with language tasks such as speaking, understanding speech, reading, and writing. Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, agnosia is a sensory perception disorder, and apraxia involves difficulty with performing purposeful movements.
Question 4 of 5
The mother of a child with a congenital cardiac defect asks the nurse why her child squats after exertion. The nurse should reply that this position:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The position of squatting after exertion increases cardiac efficiency in children with congenital cardiac defects, specifically those with Tetralogy of Fallot. By squatting, the child decreases systemic vascular resistance and increases systemic venous return, which helps to enhance cardiac output by improving blood flow to the lungs. This position allows for better oxygenation of the blood and helps alleviate cyanosis in children with Tetralogy of Fallot.
Question 5 of 5
Which laboratory study is monitored for the patient receiving heparin therapy?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The laboratory study monitored for a patient receiving heparin therapy is the Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT). Heparin is an anticoagulant medication that works by inhibiting clot formation. PTT measures the intrinsic pathway of the coagulation cascade, which is affected by heparin administration. Monitoring the PTT helps ensure that the patient's blood is at the appropriate level of anticoagulation and reduces the risk of bleeding or clot formation.
