Question 1 of 5
Which nursing action is most helpful in thinning a client's thick respiratory secretions?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Assisting the client to maintain an adequate fluid intake. Adequate hydration helps thin respiratory secretions, making them easier to clear. Fluids help to keep secretions moist and prevent them from becoming thick and difficult to expectorate. Maintaining continuous oxygen therapy (
A) can help with oxygenation but does not directly address thinning secretions. Maintaining a consistent air temperature (
B) and keeping the client in a supine position (
C) have no direct impact on thinning secretions. In summary, ensuring adequate fluid intake is crucial in thinning respiratory secretions, while the other options do not directly address this issue.
