Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is reviewing the medical record of a client who has a new prescription for zolpidem. Which of the following findings should the nurse identify as a potential contraindication for this medication?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Zolpidem can exacerbate sleepwalking, making it a contraindication. Migraines, sertraline, or allergies don't pose significant risks with zolpidem.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has bipolar disorder and a new prescription for lithium. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Consistent sodium intake prevents lithium toxicity or reduced efficacy. Potassium, exercise limits, or empty stomach administration aren't necessary.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client about preventing the transmission of hepatitis A. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The hepatitis A vaccine is the most effective prevention method. Cleaning surfaces, avoiding linens, or condoms are less specific to hepatitis A transmission.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for warfarin. Which of the following statements should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Spinach and kale, high in vitamin K, can interfere with warfarin's anticoagulant effect. Ibuprofen, variable dosing times, or contact sports increase bleeding risks.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who is at 38 weeks of gestation and in active labor. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
