Question 1 of 5

Which of the following is not a model centered on occupation?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The biomechanical model focuses on the physical aspects of performance rather than occupation, making it the correct answer. The Canadian Model of Occupational Performance and Engagement, Person-Environment-Occupation-Participation, and Model of Human Occupation are all occupation-centered models used in occupational therapy.

Question 2 of 5

As a result of opioid administration, a child's respirations are slow and shallow. Which should the nurse anticipate when assessing the child's arterial blood gas?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: When a child's respirations are slow and shallow due to opioid administration, it results in hypoventilation. This leads to retaining carbon dioxide, indicated by an increased PCO2 level on arterial blood gas analysis, and subsequently causes respiratory acidosis due to the buildup of CO2 in the blood.

Question 3 of 5

Mary is excited to work with the family of a friend with whom she has lost contact. Mary hopes the family will be able to connect her with her friend and is looking forward to hearing about her friend. At the next session, she asks the mother many questions about her friend and they spend a lot of time discussing their home town, etc. Which statement describes this scenario?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: In this scenario, Mary's focus on her own needs and interests by asking the mother about her lost friend and hometown indicates a lack of therapeutic benefit for the child and family. Effective therapy should prioritize the needs and goals of the child and family, not the therapist's personal desires or connections. Therefore, this interaction is not therapeutic as it fails to address the primary purpose of the therapy, which is to benefit the child and family.

Question 4 of 5

A child receives a vaccine for MMR. Six hours after the injection, the child’s parent reports local soreness, erythema, lethargy, and a fever of 101°F to a nurse. Which action should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Low-grade fever, malaise, and muscle aches are common reactions. Acetaminophen usually alleviates these problems. MMR is a live vaccine but it is attenuated or completely avirulent and does not cause measles in healthy children, only immunocompromised children.

Question 5 of 5

A toddler is admitted to the surgical unit for a planned closure of a temporary colostomy. Which medical prescription should the nurse question?
