ATI Comprehensive Predictor 2023 Exit Exam B Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has a new prescription for lithium for bipolar disorder. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Monitor for signs of toxicity, such as tremor. This is important because lithium has a narrow therapeutic range, and toxicity can occur if levels become too high. Monitoring for signs of toxicity, such as tremor, is crucial to prevent serious complications. Maintaining a low-sodium diet (choice
A) is not directly related to lithium therapy. Expecting mood stabilization within 24 hours (choice
C) is unrealistic as lithium may take weeks to reach therapeutic levels. Taking lithium with a high-fat meal (choice
D) can actually increase absorption and potential toxicity.
