Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who has a closed chest tube drainage system. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Keeping the system below chest level ensures proper drainage. Looping risks fluid buildup, clamping risks pneumothorax, and milking can harm lung tissue.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is collecting a capillary blood sample from an older adult client. After puncturing the client's finger, the nurse is unable to obtain an adequate amount of blood. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Warming the hand dilates vessels, improving blood flow. Alcohol or pressure reduce flow, and raising the hand isn't as effective.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is caring for an older adult client who has a hearing aid. Which of the following actions should the nurse take when the client reports hearing a whistling sound from the hearing aid?

Rationale: Whistling (feedback) often results from high volume; lowering it helps. Turning off doesn't fix it, alcohol or water can damage the device.
