Question 5 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who requires a medication that is packaged in a single-dose glass ampule. Which of the following techniques should the nurse use when opening the glass ampule?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Wear sterile gloves and break off the neck of the glass ampule with a single snap to the right side: While wearing sterile gloves is recommended, breaking the ampule to the right side is not a standard or safe practice. The ampule should be broken in a forward motion, away from the body.Tap the bottom of the ampoule, place a gauze pad around the ampule neck, and break off the bottom with a forward motion away from the body: This is the correct technique for opening a glass ampule. Tapping the bottom ensures that the liquid is settled away from the neck, and using a gauze pad around the neck provides protection from glass shards. The ampule should be broken away from the body to prevent injury.Wear sterile gloves and break off the neck of the glass ampule with a single snap in a downward motion: Breaking the ampule in a downward motion is not the recommended technique, as it could cause injury or spill the medication. The correct method is to break it away from the body in a forward motion.Tap the top of the ampule, place a sterile gauze pad around the ampule neck, and break off the top by bending it toward the body: Tapping the top is incorrect, as it could cause the medication to spill. The correct technique is to tap the bottom of the ampule. Additionally, the ampule should be broken away from the body, not toward it.
