Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with an adolescent who has a prescription for tretinoin topical for the treatment of acne. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Tretinoin increases sun sensitivity, requiring sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher. Morning application, dime-sized amounts, and applying too soon after washing are incorrect.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is caring for a 2-year-old child who has pneumonia and a temperature of 39.4° C (103° F). Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Lowering room temperature aids fever reduction safely. Aspirin risks Reye's syndrome, frequent acetaminophen risks overdose, and ice baths can harm the child.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with an adolescent client who has a new diagnosis of lactose intolerance. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Rice milk is lactose-free, making it a suitable alternative to cow's milk for lactose intolerance. Yogurt may still contain lactose, increasing lactose is counterproductive, and calcium-fortified juice is beneficial.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer recommended immunizations to a 4-year-old child who is up-to-date on current immunizations and severely immunocompromised. Which of the following immunizations should the nurse plan to administer?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: DTaP, an inactivated vaccine, is safe for immunocompromised children. MMR, Varicella, and LAIV are live vaccines, contraindicated due to infection risk.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is collecting data on a 1-month-old infant during a well-child visit. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A respiratory rate of 64/min is normal for a 1-month-old (30-60 breaths/min). Rooting reflex should be present, head lag is expected but not primary, and yellow sclera suggests jaundice needing evaluation.
