HESI Pharmacology Exam 2 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

After receiving five doses of filgrastim, the nurse notes that the client’s white blood cell count has increased from 2,500/mm3 (2.5 x 10^9/L) to 5,000/mm3 (5 x 10^9/L). Which action should the nurse implement? White Blood Cell (WBC) [Reference Range: 5000 to 10,000/mm3 (5 to 10 x 10^9/L)]

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Filgrastim stimulates white blood cell production. An increase from 2,500 to 5,000/mm3 indicates effectiveness, though still at the lower normal range. Informing the client reinforces adherence. Culture reports, vital signs, or neutropenic precautions are unnecessary without infection signs.
