Extract:

A nurse is teaching the parents of a child who is to start using a metered-dose inhaler (MDI) to treat asthma.


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching the parents of a child who is to start using a metered-dose inhaler (MDI) to treat asthma. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: The spacer increases the amount of medication delivered to the lungs. Spacers help ensure that more medication reaches the lungs by slowing down the speed of the medication particles, making it easier to inhale and reducing the amount that is deposited in the mouth and throat. This increases the effectiveness of the medication in treating asthma.


Choice A is incorrect because the spacer actually decreases the amount of medication deposited in the oropharynx.
Choice C is incorrect as inhaling rapidly can lead to improper medication delivery.
Choice D is incorrect as covering the exhalation slots with lips can lead to poor inhalation technique.
