ATI N211 Pharmacology Exam I Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who requires a medication that is packaged in a single dose glass ampule. Which of the following techniques should the nurse use when opening the glass ampule?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct technique is C because tapping the bottom helps dislodge any liquid that may be stuck in the neck of the ampule, reducing the risk of spillage. Placing a gauze pad around the neck provides a barrier to prevent injury from glass shards. Breaking off the bottom with a forward motion away from the body ensures that any glass fragments move away, minimizing the risk of injury to the nurse or client. This technique is safe and effective for opening glass ampules.


Choice A is incorrect as breaking off the neck in a downward motion may cause glass shards to fall into the medication.
Choice B is incorrect as snapping to the right side may increase the risk of glass shards flying in that direction.
Choice D is incorrect as bending the top toward the body may lead to glass fragments coming towards the nurse.
