Question 1 of 5
Which is the most beneficial nursing action to prevent or minimize chemotherapy associated nausea and vomiting?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Administer an antiemetic 30 minutes to 1 hour before chemotherapy begins. This is the most beneficial nursing action because antiemetics are most effective when given before chemotherapy to prevent nausea and vomiting. They work by blocking the receptors that trigger these symptoms. Encouraging drinking large amounts of fluids (
A) may exacerbate nausea and vomiting. Encouraging the child to take nothing by mouth (
C) may lead to dehydration and worsen symptoms. Administering an antiemetic only after symptoms start (
D) is less effective in preventing nausea and vomiting compared to giving it prophylactically.
