ATI Nursing Care of Children Questions
Question 1 of 5
When transitioning from intravenous to oral morphine, what would the nurse anticipate regarding the oral dose in comparison to the intravenous dose to achieve equianalgesia?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: When switching from intravenous to oral morphine, a higher oral dose is required to achieve equianalgesia due to significant metabolism from the first-pass effect. Choosing the same oral dose as the intravenous dose would provide less pain relief. Opting for a dose greater than the intravenous dose is necessary to achieve the same analgesic effect. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect.

A 12-month-old child presents to the clinic for a well visit after missing several appointments. The child began her immunization schedule but has missed several follow-up appointments and doses of immunizations. What is the most appropriate nursing intervention?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Children who began primary immunization at the recommended age but fail to receive all the doses do not need to begin the series again but should receive only the missed doses. The child may receive missed vaccinations on a catch-up schedule per CDC guidelines.
