Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a new prescription for bupropion. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Bupropion lowers seizure threshold, requiring monitoring. Drowsiness isn't typical (it's stimulating), milk isn't needed, and BP isn't primary.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a new prescription for clonazepam. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Clonazepam causes drowsiness, requiring monitoring. It's as prescribed (not always daily), taken without regard to meals, and respiratory checks aren't primary.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who is at 38 weeks of gestation and in active labor. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Fetal heart rate monitoring assesses fetal well-being during labor. Catheters aren't routine, analgesics depend on stage, and ambulation may not suit active labor.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who is about to start using an albuterol metered-dose inhaler. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Proper inhaler technique requires closing the mouth around the mouthpiece to ensure medication reaches the lungs. Tilting the head forward, taking quick breaths, or exhaling immediately disrupts effective delivery.
