Question 1 of 5
Which of the following treatments is not recommended for a child classified with no dehydration?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. Continuing feeding is a recommended treatment for a child classified with no dehydration. This helps maintain the child's nutritional status and supports recovery. Options A, C, and D are appropriate interventions for a child with no dehydration. Option A ensures adequate fluid intake, option C promotes hydration, and option D ensures appropriate follow-up if the condition worsens.
Question 2 of 5
All of the following are contraindications when giving Immunization except:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. BCG vaccine can be given to a child with Hepatitis B, as there is no contraindication for this. Choice A, C, and D all present contraindications for administering immunizations. Choice A is incorrect because giving BCG vaccines to a child with AIDS is a contraindication. Choice C is incorrect as convulsions after the first DPT dose indicate a contraindication to subsequent doses. Choice D is incorrect because active convulsions or other neurological diseases are contraindications to receiving the DPT vaccine.
Question 3 of 5
How many words does a typical 12-month-old infant use?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A typical 12-month-old infant typically uses very few words, with 'mama' and 'papa' being common early words. At this age, most infants are still in the early stages of language development, and their vocabulary is limited. Choices A, B, and C suggest higher word counts which are not typical for infants at this age.
Question 4 of 5
In some hip surgeries, an epidural catheter for Fentanyl epidural analgesia is given. What is your nursing priority care in such a case?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The nursing priority care in a case where an epidural catheter for Fentanyl epidural analgesia is given during hip surgeries is to assess the respiratory rate carefully. Respiratory depression is a potential side effect of Fentanyl, especially when administered epidurally. Monitoring the respiratory rate is crucial to detect any signs of respiratory distress promptly. Instructing the client to observe strict bed rest (Choice A) may be necessary but is not the priority over ensuring respiratory function. Checking for epidural catheter drainage (Choice B) and administering analgesia through the epidural catheter as prescribed (Choice C) are important aspects of care, but ensuring adequate ventilation takes precedence to prevent complications.
Question 5 of 5
Overdosage of medication or anesthetic can happen even with the aid of technology like infusion pumps, sphygmomanometer, and similar devices/machines. As a staff member, how can you improve the safety of using infusion pumps?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To enhance the safety of using infusion pumps, it is crucial to verify the flow rate against your calculation. This step ensures that the prescribed dosage is being delivered accurately, reducing the risk of medication errors. Checking the functionality of the pump before use (Choice A) is also important to ensure it is working properly. Allowing the technician to set the pump (Choice C) may not always guarantee the correct settings. Selecting the brand of infusion pump carefully (Choice B) is not directly related to the safe use of the pump.
