Question 2 of 5
The nurse should always keep which of these drugs at the bedsides of a client with myasthenia gravis
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The nurse should always keep Tensilon (Edrophonium) at the bedside of a client with myasthenia gravis. Tensilon is a fast-acting cholinesterase inhibitor that can be used for the diagnosis and emergency treatment of myasthenia crisis. It helps improve muscle strength temporarily by increasing the levels of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. Administering Tensilon can help differentiate between a myasthenic crisis (marked improvement in muscle strength) and a cholinergic crisis (no improvement or worsening of muscle weakness). Keeping Tensilon at the bedside allows for prompt administration in case of a myasthenic crisis.
Question 3 of 5
The grand daughter of dina ask you. How does regular exercise help my grand mother overcome her diabetes? Your BEST response is exercise ______.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Regular exercise is beneficial for individuals with diabetes, including your grandmother, because it helps increase metabolic rate and the consumption of glucose by the muscles. When someone exercises regularly, their muscles become more sensitive to insulin, which helps to lower blood sugar levels. This increased glucose utilization by the muscles can lead to better blood sugar control and overall improved management of diabetes. By incorporating regular exercise into her routine, your grandmother can potentially reduce the need for medications, maintain a healthier weight, and lower the risk of complications associated with diabetes.
