C. Rash and hives
D. Decreased urinary output and hypertension
Other symptoms include respiratory distress and anaphylaxis. Answer A describes febrile nonhemolytic reaction, so it is incorrect. Answer B occurs with hemolytic reaction and answer D is not associated with a blood transfusion reaction, so they are incorrect.

B. Deep tendon reflexes
C. Blood pressure
D. Bowel sounds
The patient is exhibiting symptoms of autonomic dysreflexia. The hypertension can be severe and requires treatment; therefore, this assessment is essential. The assessments in Answers A, B, and D might all be done, but C is the priority, so the others are incorrect.

C. The swab product is the same swab used for MRSA testing
D. Instruct patient to self isolate until swab results are back

B. Irrigate the tubing with normal saline to remove clots
C. Avoid clamping or kinking the tubing

Answer D is incorrect because suspending the tubing would cause urine to be retained in the kidney.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Taking supplements of B3
B. Increasing sodium intake
C. Eating a diet high in calcium
D. Drinking additional fluids
Taking supplements of B3 (niacin) helps to improve the symptoms associated with Ménière’s disease. Answer B is incorrect because the client needs to limit sodium intake. The client with Ménière’s does not need additional sources of calcium; therefore, answer C is incorrect. Ménière’s is not improved by increasing fluid intake; therefore, answer D is incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Checking the client’s blood sugar
B. Administering intravenous dextrose
C. Intubation and ventilator support
D. Administering regular insulin
The client has symptoms of insulin shock and the first step is to check the client’s blood sugar. If indicated, the client should be treated with intravenous dextrose.

Answer D is wrong because it would be used for diabetic ketoacidosis, not insulin shock.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. The client receiving radium linear accelerator radiation therapy for cancer
B. The client with a radium implant for vaginal cancer
C. The client who has just been administered radioactive isotopes for cancer
D. The client who returned from placement of iridium seeds for prostate cancer
The pregnant nurse should not be assigned to any client with radioactivity present. The client receiving linear accelerator therapy travels to the radium department for therapy, and the radiation stays in the department. Thus, the client is not radioactive. The client in answer B poses a risk to the pregnant client, so answer B is incorrect. Answer C is incorrect because the client is radioactive in very small doses. For approximately 72 hours, the client should dispose of urine and feces in special containers and use plastic spoons and forks. The client in answer D is also radioactive in small amounts, especially upon return from the procedure, so answer D is incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Walk 20 minutes a day to maintain muscle strength
B. Expect a reddish discoloration of her urine
C. Notify the doctor of a sore throat or fever
D. Eat smaller, more frequent meals
Cytoxan is an immunosuppressive drug; therefore, the client should notify the doctor of symptoms associated with infection. Answers A and D are not associated with the use of Cytoxan; therefore, they are incorrect. The client taking Cytoxan can experience hemorrhagic cystitis due to inadequate fluid intake, but it is not an expected finding; therefore, answer B is incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option B
Volume of water to add (mL) = total volume of formula on hand (mL) – total volume of formula on hand (mL)
Diluted strength
mL water = (300mL / 2/3) – 300mL = (300mL x 3) / (1x2) – 300mL = 450mL – 300mL = 150mL
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. Begin an IV of normal saline at keep-open rate
B. Continue the magnesium sulfate as ordered
C. Contact the doctor immediately
D. Prepare for an emergency delivery
The therapeutic range for magnesium sulfate is 4.0–9.6 meq/L; therefore, with a magnesium level of 6.3meq/L, the nurse should continue the infusion. Answers A, C, and D indicate that the nurse believes the level to be toxic. This is an incorrect conclusion, making these answers incorrect.

A. The correct way to perform postural drainage
B. The preparation and use of isotonic enemas
C. The collection of a specimen using the tape test
D. The use of pinwheels and suckers to improve speech

The Correct Answer is Option B
Convert weight from pounds to kilograms (32lbs/2.2lbs) and multiply by required dose (20ml/kg) multiplied by drop factor (10drops/ml) over the required time of 60minutes.
32 lbs x kg x 20mL x 10drops
2.2lbs kg ml
___________________________ = 48.4848485 = 48 drops/minute (rounded off to whole number)
60 minutes
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Kayexalate (sodium polystyrene sulfonate)
B. K-Dur (potassium chloride)
C. Cephulac (lactulose)
D. PhosLo (calcium acetate)
Kayexalate (sodium polystyrene sulfonate) is administered to lower potassium levels in the client with hyperkalemia. K-Dur is used for the client with hypokalemia; therefore, answer B is incorrect. Lactulose is used to lower ammonia levels in the client with liver disease; therefore, answer C is incorrect. PhosLo is used to lower phosphorus levels in the client with renal disease; therefore, Answer D is incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. A 42-year-old with dyspnoea and chest asymmetry
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.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. No need for any medical treatment for radiation exposure
B. Have damage to the bones, kidneys, liver, and thyroid
C. Experience only erythema and desquamation
D. Not be radioactive because the radiation passes through the body

The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Negligence
B. Tort
C. Assault
D. Malpractice

B. Intermittent claudication
C. Kawasaki disease
D. Thromboangiitis obliterans
The other name for Buerger’s disease is thromboangiitis obliterans. Answer A is incorrect because pheochromocytoma is an adrenal tumor.
