Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has an oxygen saturation of 88%. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Deep breathing improves lung expansion and oxygenation, addressing low saturation (88%). Lowering the bed worsens it, coughing is insufficient, and opioids depress respiration.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is caring for a postoperative client who is receiving fentanyl. Which of the following medications should the nurse plan to administer to the client if manifestations of fentanyl toxicity occur?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Naloxone reverses opioid toxicity (e.g., fentanyl) by antagonizing receptors, unlike atropine (bradycardia), protamine (heparin), or flumazenil (benzodiazepines).
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a new diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. The client states they will never be able to follow the prescribed diet. Which of the following statements should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Involving the client in diet planning by incorporating preferences fosters collaboration and control, addressing their concerns therapeutically.
