Extract:
A nurse notices a school-age child with leukemia experiencing severe nausea and vomiting when receiving chemotherapy for the first time.
Question 1 of 5
Which is the most appropriate nursing action to prevent or minimize these reactions with subsequent treatments?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Administer an antiemetic before chemotherapy begins. This is the most appropriate nursing action because antiemetics work best when given before chemotherapy to prevent nausea and vomiting. By administering the antiemetic beforehand, it can help in minimizing these reactions during and after the treatment. Option A is not ideal as waiting for the child to complain of nausea may lead to delayed treatment. Option B, encouraging large fluid intake, is not as effective in preventing nausea and vomiting as the antiemetic. Option D is incorrect as skipping meals can actually worsen nausea due to chemotherapy. In summary, administering the antiemetic before chemotherapy is the best proactive approach to prevent or minimize nausea and vomiting reactions.
