Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for enoxaparin. The nurse should identify which of the following over-the-counter products as unsafe for use with enoxaparin.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Naproxen, an NSAID, increases bleeding risk with enoxaparin, an anticoagulant. Cimetidine, docusate, and calcium supplements don't pose significant interaction risks.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving IV gentamicin. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Gentamicin risks ototoxicity, so hearing monitoring is critical. It's infused slowly, glucose isn't affected, and fluid intake depends on condition.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has end-stage kidney disease. The client has decided to stop dialysis treatment. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Supporting the client's decision respects autonomy, a core ethical principle. Discussing with family, alternatives, or involving a chaplain are secondary to honoring the client's choice.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is postoperative following a cesarean birth. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Ambulation within 24 hours prevents thromboembolism and aids recovery. Coughing supports lung function, cold packs aren't standard, and laxatives aren't given that frequently.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who reports he has headaches after taking chewable isosorbide dinitrate. Which of the following statements should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Headaches from isosorbide dinitrate often diminish over time as the body adjusts. Swallowing whole, taking on an empty stomach, or discontinuing aren't recommended.
