Question 2 of 5
A nurse is developing a plan of care for a newborn who is to undergo phototherapy for hyperbilirubinemia. Which of the following actions should the nurse include in the plan?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Remove all clothing from the newborn except the diaper. This is crucial during phototherapy for hyperbilirubinemia because it helps maximize skin exposure to the therapeutic light. By removing clothing, the skin can absorb the light more effectively, aiding in the breakdown of bilirubin.
Choice A is incorrect as water should not be given in place of feeding, as the newborn needs adequate nutrition.
Choice B is incorrect as applying lotion may interfere with the effectiveness of phototherapy.
Choice D is incorrect as a rash is a common side effect of phototherapy and should not warrant discontinuation of treatment.
