Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a 1-week-old newborn who has hyperbilirubinemia and is being treated with phototherapy. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Monitor the newborn's temperature every 2 hr. This is important because phototherapy can lead to heat loss in newborns, making them prone to hypothermia. By monitoring the temperature every 2 hours, the nurse can promptly detect any changes and take appropriate measures to maintain the newborn's body temperature within a safe range. Checking the newborn's eyes every 8 hours (
A) is not directly related to the management of hyperbilirubinemia or phototherapy. Placing mittens on the newborn's hands (
B) is not necessary for this situation. Applying lotion to the newborn's skin (
D) is also not relevant to managing hyperbilirubinemia.
