Question 1 of 5
Vitamin A supplementation may be recommended for the young child who has which disease?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Vitamin A supplementation may be recommended for children with measles (rubeola) due to the disease's association with vitamin A deficiency. Measles can lead to reduced levels of vitamin A in the body, which can result in increased severity of symptoms, complications, and even death. Supplementing with vitamin A during and after a measles infection helps reduce the risk of complications and mortality, particularly in young children under the age of 5 in areas where vitamin A deficiency is common. Therefore, providing vitamin A supplementation to children with measles is an important intervention to support their recovery and improve outcomes.

Question 5 of 5
Which of the ff should the nurse identify as the earliest symptom of heart failure in many older clients?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Dyspnea on exertion is often identified as the earliest symptom of heart failure in many older clients. This symptom occurs due to the heart's inability to pump blood efficiently, leading to a buildup of fluid in the lungs. As a result, individuals may experience shortness of breath when engaging in physical activity or even at rest. Monitoring for dyspnea on exertion can aid in the early detection and management of heart failure in older clients. Other symptoms, such as increased urine output, swollen joints, and nausea/vomiting, may also occur in heart failure, but dyspnea on exertion is typically considered one of the earliest signs to manifest.
