Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for an infant who has signs of neonatal abstinence syndrome. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Initiate seizure precautions. Neonatal abstinence syndrome can lead to seizures due to drug withdrawal. Seizure precautions involve ensuring a safe environment, padded crib, monitoring vital signs closely, and having emergency medications and equipment readily available. Monitoring blood glucose every hour (

B) is a basic positioning technique and not specific to addressing the syndrome. Providing a stimulating environment (
D) would be inappropriate and could exacerbate symptoms.
