ATI RN Fundamentals 2019 II | Nurselytic

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct action for the nurse to take is C: Hold the syringe so that bubbles collect at the level of the plunger. This is important to ensure accurate dosage measurement as any air bubbles present can affect the amount of medication being administered. By holding the syringe in a way that allows bubbles to collect at the plunger level, the nurse can easily remove them before administering the medication, thus ensuring the correct dosage reaches the client.

Explanation for why other choices are incorrect:
A: Injecting air into the vial with the needle in the fluid can introduce air bubbles into the vial, affecting the accuracy of the medication dose.
B: Holding the syringe at a 45° angle does not relate to removing air bubbles and verifying dosage accurately.
D: Holding the vial with the top facing upward while injecting air can also introduce air bubbles into the vial, affecting the accuracy of the medication dose.
