B. Angelica
C. Chamomile
D. Echinacea
Clients taking antidepressant medication should avoid herbal preparations containing hypericum (St. John’s wort) unless directed by the physician. Answers B, C, and D do not specifically apply to the client taking prescription antidepressants; therefore, they are incorrect. Note: The client taking any prescription medication should check with the physician before using herbals or dietary supplements.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. Instruct the aggressive patient to help you with ambulating the bedridden patient
B. Instruct the ambulant patient to assist the 78-year-old in the evacuation process while you seek help in evacuating the bedridden patient
C. Call the switchboard for help in the evacuation
D. Tell everyone the building is on fire and that all take the fire exit
Ambulant patients can assist semi ambulant patients in case of emergency. Take the full dependent and aggressive patients last. There is no point in asking the switchboard as the alarm has been activated. The fire warden is in charge of instructing all people in the building, no the nurse.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Constriction of blood flow
B. Immobilization of the joint
C. Formation of a decubitus ulcer
D. Oozing of blood from the wound
Wrapping an elastic bandage on a stump using the circular technique can cause the wrap to act as a tourniquet and restrict blood flow, so a figure eight technique is utilized to prevent this from occurring.

The Correct Answer is Option D
A. Wearing gloves when emptying the client’s bedpan
B. Keeping all linens in the room until the implant is removed
C. Wearing a lead apron when providing direct care to the client
D. Placing the client in a 4 bedded room with shared toilet

B. Nothing by mouth the night before the test
C. High-fat meal two hours before the test
D. Asking the client to bring a sputum sample with her for analysis
The only preparation for H. pylori urea breath test is NPO after midnight. In this test, the client drinks a carbon-enriched urea liquid and then CO2 is measured for H. pylori. Answers A, C, and D are not part of the preparation for an H. pylori urea breath test, so they are incorrect options.

C. A child whose pupils are fixed and dilated and his parents and a client with a frontal head injury
D. The client who arrives with a large puncture wound to the abdomen and the client with chest pain
Out of all these clients, it is best to hold the pregnant client and the client with a broken arm and facial lacerations in the same room. The other clients need to be placed in separate rooms, so answers A, C, and D are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option B, Option D
A. Wear airborne precaution PPE
B. Obtain nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs
C. The swab product is the same swab used for MRSA testing
D. Instruct patient to self isolate until swab results are back

Droplet precautions must be worn unless performing aerosolized procedures such as nebulizers or intubation. MRSA swab test is for the identification of bacterial microorganisms, COVID is a virus, therefore a virus swab must be used.
The nurse should conduct an oronasal pharyngeal swab and must instruct the patient to self-isolate, proper hand hygiene, and cough etiquette.

A. The client rigidly extends the arms with pronated forearms and plantar flexion of the feet
B. The client flexes a leg at the hip and knee and reports pain in the vertebral column when the leg is extended
C. The client passively flexes the hip and knee in response to neck flexion and reports pain in the vertebral column.
D. The client’s upper arms are flexed and held tightly to the sides of the body and the legs are extended and internally rotated.
Brudzinski’s sign is tested with the client in the supine position. The nurse flexes the client’s head (gently moves the head to the chest), and there should be no reports of pain or resistance to the neck flexion. A positive Brudzinski’s sign is observed if the client passively flexes the hip and knee in response to neck flexion and reports pain in the vertebral column. Kernig’s sign also tests for meningeal irritation and is positive when the client flexes the legs at the hip and knee and complains of pain along the vertebral column when the leg is extended. Decorticate posturing is abnormal flexion and is noted when the client’s upper arms are flexed and held tightly to the sides of the body and the legs are extended and internally rotated. Decerebrate posturing is abnormal extension and occurs when the arms are fully extended, forearms pronated, wrists and fingers flexed, jaws clenched, neck extended, and feet plantar-flexed
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Creatinine
B. Cortisol levels
C. Blood glucose
D. Liver profile
Terbutaline (Brethine) is a bronchodilator that can also relax smooth muscles. Brethine can cause elevations in blood glucose levels so the client should have blood glucose levels checked prior to beginning treatment with Brethine. Answers A, B, and D are not laboratory studies that are required prior to beginning Brethine.
The Correct Answer is Option A
Total Volume / Time x Drip Factor = 1000 mL / 24 hours x 15drops/mL = 625 drops/hour
625drops/hour x 1hour/60minutes = 10.4166667 = 10 drops/minute (rounded off to a whole number)

The Correct Answer is Option D
A. Hemarthrosis of the elbow
B. Bruise of the ankle
C. Bruise of the ankle
D. Unilateral numbness and lack of movement of arm
The neurological symptoms could mean an intracranial bleed has occurred. The answers in A, B, and C are reasons for concern, but they are not the priority, so they are incorrect.

A. Continue the collection as ordered by the physician
B. Discard the collected urine, obtain a new bottle, and begin the collection again
C. Record the information in the client’s chart and continue the collection
D. Extend the collection time to replace the last voiding

The Correct Answer is Option C
A. 3-4 days
B. 5-9 days

Damage to the seventh cranial nerve (facial nerve) might occur during a stapedectomy. Changes in facial sensation should be reported to the doctor. Stapedectomy complications do not include damage to the third, fifth, or ninth cranial nerves; therefore, answers A, B, and D are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option C
Answer: C. A weight of 22.5 pounds is equal to 10.22 kilograms.
At 50 mg/kg, this child would need 511 milligrams of medication.

At 100 mg/mL, the proper dose in milliliters is 5.1 milliliters.

B. A 17-year-old with a fractured arm
C. A 4-year-old with facial lacerations
D. A 30-year-old with blunt abdominal trauma
Following the ABCDs of basic emergency care, the client with dyspnea and asymmetrical chest should be cared for first because these symptoms are associated with flail chest. Answer D is incorrect because he should be cared for second because of the likelihood of organ damage and bleeding. Answer B is incorrect because he should be cared for after the client with abdominal trauma. Answer C is incorrect because he should receive care last because his injuries are less severe.

B. Wear training pants
C. Engage in imitative play
D. Have hand-to-mouth contact
Enterobiasis is most common in young children because of frequent hand-to-mouth contact. Answer A is incorrect because sharing hats and caps contributes to the spread of pediculosis capitis.

B. Retain or blow off CO2
C. Regulate potassium levels
D. Maintain sodium levels
The lungs assist in the control of acid/base balance by regulating the amount of CO2 that is retained or exhaled. The lungs are not in control of HCO3, potassium, or sodium; therefore, Answers A, C, and D are incorrect.
