ATI RN Leadership 2019 Exam 2 Questions
Extract:
A nurse working on a medical-surgical unit is managing the care of four clients: a client who has orthostatic hypotension and is receiving IV fluids, a client who has Type 1 diabetes and uses an insulin pump, a client who is at risk for pressure ulcers and has an albumin level of 4.2 g/dL, a client who is receiving heparin and has an aPTT of 34 seconds.
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following clients should the nurse schedule an interdisciplinary conference for?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because the client is receiving heparin and has an aPTT of 34 seconds. An aPTT of 34 seconds is below the therapeutic range for heparin therapy, which increases the risk of clot formation.
Therefore, an interdisciplinary conference is needed to discuss adjusting the heparin dosage to ensure the client's safety.
Option A is incorrect because orthostatic hypotension and IV fluids do not require an interdisciplinary conference. Option B is incorrect as managing Type 1 diabetes with an insulin pump can usually be handled by the primary care provider. Option C is incorrect because an albumin level of 4.2 g/dL is within the normal range and does not necessitate an interdisciplinary conference.
