Question 3 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client's peripheral IV during hourly rounding. The nurse notices the site has erythema, warmth, edema, and a red line traveling up the vessel. Which complication would the nurse identify this client has?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Thrombophlebitis is indicated by erythema, warmth, edema, and a red line along the vein, suggesting inflammation and clot formation. Infiltration lacks warmth, infection lacks the red line, and extravasation involves vesicant leakage.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is giving preoperative instructions to a patient scheduled for surgery. The patient tells the nurse, 'I will prepare my advance directives before I come to the hospital.' Which statement shows the client understands advance directives?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The statement about not wanting to be kept on a breathing machine shows the client understands that advance directives specify medical treatment preferences, such as life-sustaining measures. The other options reflect misunderstandings, such as needing doctor approval, surgery dependency on forms, or confusion about healthcare proxy designation.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer furosemide 4 mg via IV bolus to a client. The amount available is furosemide 10 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 0.4
Rationale:
To administer 4 mg of furosemide (10 mg/mL) divide 4 mg by 10 mg/mL = 0.4 mL. The answer is not rounded to a whole number as 0.4 mL is precise for IV bolus administration. Use a leading zero (0.4) and avoid trailing zeros.
