Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Lyme disease is primarily spread through the bite of an infected black-legged tick, also known as a deer tick. The tick must be infected with the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi in order to transmit the disease. Contrary to popular belief, the tick doesn't transmit the infection immediately upon biting. Borrelia burgdorferi is typically transmitted after the tick has been attached to the host for at least 24 hours. This gives individuals a window of time to remove attached ticks before transmission occurs. Therefore, the most accurate statement regarding the spread of the organism for Lyme disease is through an infected tick that has been embedded for more than 24 hours.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Establishing a voiding schedule that includes emptying the bladder at least every 2 hours can help prevent urine leaks in this patient. By regularly emptying the bladder, the patient can reduce the likelihood of urgency and leakage episodes. This strategy helps in managing the symptoms of urge incontinence or overactive bladder, which seem to be the underlying issues for the patient described in the scenario. The other options may also be helpful in managing urinary incontinence but creating a voiding schedule is the most direct and effective approach for the patient's specific concern.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: In the case of a client diagnosed with cardiomyopathy and experiencing tachycardia, a beta blocker is the anticipated medication. Beta blockers work by blocking the effects of adrenaline on the heart, reducing heart rate, blood pressure, and myocardial oxygen demand. This can help manage symptoms of tachycardia in cardiomyopathy by slowing down the heart rate and improving its overall function. Other medications like ACE inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers may be used to manage specific aspects of cardiomyopathy such as hypertension or heart failure, but in the context of tachycardia, a beta blocker is the preferred choice. Cardiac glycosides, like Digoxin, are used for heart failure but not primarily for managing tachycardia in cardiomyopathy.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Jerking movements in the face, arms, or legs can be a sign of seizures, which can occur as a result of a stroke in infants. This question is important to assess whether the infant may have experienced any seizure activity, which could indicate a potential stroke. It helps the nurse gather more information to understand the infant's symptoms and assess the possibility of a stroke event.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: A. Excessive sweating: Children with congestive heart failure (CHF) may experience excessive sweating as their bodies work harder to keep up with the demands of the heart, leading to increased sympathetic tone and perspiration.
