Question 1 of 5
What is an appropriate parenting technique for time-out disciplining in children with mental health issues?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Remove all privileges for at least one week following a violation.' When dealing with children with mental health issues, it is essential to have consistent consequences for their actions. Providing positive reinforcement for minor infractions (choice A) may not effectively address inappropriate behaviors that require disciplinary action. Limiting the child's time outside the home environment (choice C) does not directly address the behavioral issue. Using time-out only in severe situations (choice D) may not provide consistent consequences for the child's behavior and can lead to escalation before interventions are used.
Question 2 of 5
A healthcare provider is assessing a client who has carpal tunnel syndrome. The provider should expect which of the following findings?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Phalen's sign is often positive in clients with carpal tunnel syndrome due to nerve compression. Chvostek's sign (Choice A) is related to hypocalcemia, cool extremities (Choice B) are not typically associated with carpal tunnel syndrome, and decreased radial pulse (Choice D) is not a common finding in carpal tunnel syndrome.
Question 3 of 5
A client is experiencing chest pain. Which action should the nurse take first?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Administering nitroglycerin is the priority action when a client is experiencing chest pain as it helps alleviate the pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. Oxygen can be beneficial, but nitroglycerin takes precedence in this situation. Aspirin can also be given, but nitroglycerin is the priority. Performing an ECG can provide valuable information but is not the first action to take in this scenario.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse manager is presenting to a group of unit nurses the categories regulated under the Controlled Substances Act. Which of the following medications should the nurse include under Schedule II?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Hydrocodone bitartrate. According to the Controlled Substances Act, hydrocodone bitartrate is classified as a Schedule II controlled substance due to its high potential for abuse and addiction. Diazepam (Choice C) and morphine (Choice D) are classified as Schedule IV and Schedule II controlled substances, respectively. Buprenorphine hydrochloride (Choice A) is classified as a Schedule III controlled substance. Therefore, hydrocodone bitartrate should be included under Schedule II medications when discussing the categories regulated under the Controlled Substances Act.
Question 5 of 5
A healthcare provider is reviewing a client's lab results. Which of the following lab values should the provider report?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Sodium 126 mEq/L. A sodium level of 126 mEq/L is below the normal range, indicating hyponatremia, which can have serious health implications and should be reported to the healthcare provider for further evaluation and intervention. Choices A, B, and D are within or close to the normal ranges for magnesium, potassium, and chloride, respectively, and do not require immediate reporting as they are not significantly abnormal.
