Question 1 of 5
A nurse is planning care for a client who has a new prescription for parenteral nutrition (PN) in 20% dextrose and fat emulsions. Which of the following is an appropriate action to include in the plan of care?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Prepare the client for a central venous line. Parenteral nutrition with high dextrose concentrations and fat emulsions can cause irritation and damage to peripheral veins.
Therefore, a central venous line is necessary to administer PN safely.
Choice B is incorrect because changing the PN infusion bag every 48 hours is not related to the administration method.
Choice C is incorrect as obtaining a random blood glucose daily is important but not specific to the administration of PN.
Choice D is incorrect because administering the PN and fat emulsion separately is not necessary when they are combined in the same solution for PN.
