Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to mix short-acting insulin with NPH insulin from two vials. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Inject air into the vial to withdraw the short-acting insulin. This step is necessary to prevent creating a vacuum in the vial, making it easier to withdraw the correct dose of insulin. Injecting air into the vial equalizes the pressure inside, facilitating the smooth withdrawal of the desired insulin amount. This technique helps prevent contamination and ensures accurate dosage delivery. Using two separate syringes (choice
C) is unnecessary and may lead to potential errors. Administering the insulin within 20 minutes (choice
A) is not a critical step in this process. Ensuring NPH insulin is drawn first (choice
D) is incorrect as it should be the short-acting insulin that is drawn first for proper mixing.
