Chapter 1: Bronchiolitis ij ij

1. Which intervention is appropriate for the infant hospitalized with bronchiolitis?
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

a. Position on the side with neck slightly flexed. ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

b. Administer antibiotics as ordered. ij ij ij

c. Restrict oral and parenteral fluids if tachypneic. ij ij ij ij ij ij

d. Give cool, humidified oxygen. ANS: D ij ij ij ij ij

Cool, humidified oxygen is given to relieve dyspnea, hypoxemia, and insensible fluid loss from
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

tachypnea. The infant should be positioned with the head and chest elevated at a 30- to 40-degree
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

angle and the neck slightly extended to maintain an open airway and decrease pressure on the
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

diaphragm. The etiology of bronchiolitis is viral. Antibiotics are given only if there is a secondary
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

bacterial infection. Tachypnea increases insensible fluid loss. If the infant is tachypneic, fluids are
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

givenparenterally to prevent dehydration.

2. An infant with bronchiolitis is hospitalized. The causative organism is respiratory syncytial
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

virus(RSV). The nurse knows that a child infected with this virus requires what type of isolation?
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

a. Reverse isolation ij

b. Airborne isolation ij

c. Contact Precautions ij

d. Standard Precautions ANS: C ij ij ij

RSV is transmitted through droplets. In addition to Standard Precautions and hand washing,
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

Contact Precautions are required. Caregivers must use gloves and gowns when entering the room.
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

Care is taken not to touch their own eyes or mucous membranes with a contaminated gloved hand.
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

Children are placed in a private room or in a room with other children with RSV infections. Reverse

focuses on keeping bacteria away from the infant. With RSV, other children need to be protected

fromexposure to the virus. The virus is not airborne.

3. A child has a chronic cough and diffuse wheezing during the expiratory phase of respiration.
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

Thissuggests what condition?
ij ij ij ij

a. Asthma

b. Pneumonia

c. Bronchiolitis

d. Foreign body in trachea ANS: A ij ij ij ij ij

Asthma may have these chronic signs and symptoms. Pneumonia appears with an acute
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

ij onset,fever, and general malaise. Bronchiolitis is an acute condition caused by respiratory

ij syncytial

virus. Foreign body in the trachea occurs with acute respiratory distress or failure and maybe stridor.

4. Which nursing diagnosis is most appropriate for an infant with acute bronchiolitis due

torespiratory syncytial virus (RSV)?
ij ij ij ij ij

a. Activity Intolerance ij

b. Decreased Cardiac Output ij ij

c. Pain, Acute ij

d. Tissue Perfusion, Ineffective (peripheral) ANS. A

Rationale 1: Activity intolerance is a problem because of the imbalance between oxygen supply and
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

demand. Cardiac output is not compromised during an acute phase of bronchiolitis. Pain is not

usuallyassociated with acute bronchiolitis. Tissue perfusion (peripheral) is not affected by this

respiratory- disease process.

1. The nurse is caring for a child hospitalized for status asthmaticus. Which assessment

findingsuggests that the childs condition is worsening?
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

a. Hypoventilation

b. Thirst

c. Bradycardia

d. Clubbing ANS: A ij ij

The nurse would assess the child for signs of hypoxia, including restlessness, fatigue, irritability, and

increased heart and respiratory rate. As the child tires from the increased work of breathing
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

hypoventilation occurs leading to increased carbon dioxide levels. The nurse would be alert for signs of
