D. Mask worn by staff when the client needs to leave the room
Meningitis is transmitted by droplet infection. Precautions for this disease include a private room or cohort client and the use of a standard precaution mask. Private negative airflow pressure rooms and personal respiratory protection devices are required for clients with airborne diseases such as tuberculosis. When appropriate, a mask must be worn by the client and not the staff when the client leaves the room.

A. Cleansing the skin with a pH-balanced soap
B. Lubricating the skin with a moisturizing cream
C. Massaging reddened areas of the skin
D. Using absorbent garments for incontinence
The nurse should avoid massaging reddened areas of the skin because it can result in damage to capillary beds and lead to tissue necrosis. Answers A, B, and D are appropriate interventions for the client at risk for pressure ulcers; therefore, they are incorrect.

B. Inhalation of bacterial spores
C. Through a cut or abrasion in the skin
D. Direct contact with an infected individual
Answer: A,B,C

The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Obtain an IV controller
B. Check the client’s vital signs hourly
C. Check the sodium level
D. Obtain an 18-gauge cathlon to begin the infusion
If potassium is added to IV fluids, a controller is required because a too-rapid infusion of potassium can lead to cardiac arrhythmias. Answer B is incorrect only because there is no data to indicate that hourly vital signs should be obtained. Answer C is incorrect because the client has an order for D51/2NS, which is the same in saline as the client’s normal sodium level. Answer D is incorrect because an 18-gauge cathlon is not required. The nurse can use any size cathlon for this infusion.
The Correct Answer is Option D
Use the medication formula:
Desired / Available x Volume = 1,000,000units / 1,200,000units x 2mL = 1.66666666667 mL
Rounded off to two decimal places: 1.67 mL
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. An internal fetal heart monitor
B. An IV rate controller
C. A blood administration set
D. A wall suction device
An IV rate controller must be obtained in order to safely administer magnesium sulfate. If magnesium sulfate is administered too quickly, toxicity can result, leading to respiratory arrest. Answer A is incorrect because there is no need to insert an internal fetal monitor. If magnesium sulfate is administered to the pregnant client, an external fetal monitor is sufficient. Answer C is incorrect because a standard IV administration set is used. Answer D is incorrect because there is no specific need for wall suction to be available with the administration of magnesium sulfate.

The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Develop an elevated digitalis level
B. Have a decrease in the digitalis levels
C. Have alterations in sodium levels
D. Develop tachycardia
The client taking digitalis should avoid constipation because constipation can lead to digitalis toxicity. Answer B is incorrect because constipation will not lead to a decrease in the digitalis levels. Answer C is incorrect because constipation does not result in alterations in the sodium level. Answer D is incorrect because digitalis toxicity will result in brachycardia, not tachycardia.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Acyclovir (Zovirax)
B. Podophyllin
C. AZT (Retrovir)
D. Isoniazid (Lanzid)
Acyclovir is used to treat genital herpes. Answer B is incorrect because Podophyllin is used to treat condyloma acuminata (venereal warts).

The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Magnetic resonance imaging
B. Ultrasonography
C. Noncontrast helical computerized tomography
