Chapter 1: Bronchiolitis
1. Which Intervention Is Appropriate For The Infant Hospitalized With Bronchiolitis?
a. Position On The Side With Neck Slightly Flexed.
b. Administer Antibiotics As Ordered.
c. Restrict Oral And Parenteral Fluids If Tachypneic.
d. Give Cool, Humidified
Oxygen.Ans: D
Cool, Humidified Oxygen Is Given To Relieve Dyspnea, Hypoxemia, And Insensible Fluid Loss From
Tachypnea. The Infant Should Be Positioned With The Head And Chest Elevated At A 30- To
40-DegreeAngle And The Neck Slightly Extended To Maintain An Open Airway And Decrease
Pressure On The Diaphragm. The Etiology Of Bronchiolitis Is Viral. Antibiotics Are Given Only
If There Is A Secondary Bacterial Infection. Tachypnea Increases Insensible Fluid Loss. If The
Infant Is Tachypneic, Fluids Are Given Parenterally To Prevent Dehydration.
2. An Infant With Bronchiolitis Is Hospitalized. The Causative Organism Is Respiratory
SyncytialVirus (Rsv). The Nurse Knows That A Child Infected With This Virus Requires
What Type Of
Isolation?
a. Reverse Isolation
b. Airborne Isolation
c. Contact Precautions
d. Standard Precautions
Ans: C
Rsv Is Transmitted Through Droplets. In Addition To Standard Precautions And Hand Washing,
Contact Precautions Are Required. Caregivers Must Use Gloves And Gowns When Entering
The Room. Care Is Taken Not To Touch Their Own Eyes Or Mucous Membranes With A
Contaminated Gloved Hand. Children Are Placed In A Private Room Or In A Room With
Other Children With Rsv Infections. Reverse Isolation Focuses On Keeping Bacteria Away
From The Infant. With Rsv, OtherChildren Need To Be Protected From Exposure To The
Virus. The Virus Is Not Airborne.
3. A Child Has A Chronic Cough And Diffuse Wheezing During The Expiratory Phase Of Respiration.
This Suggests What Condition?
a. Asthma
b. Pneumonia
c. Bronchiolitis
d. Foreign Body In
TracheaAns: A

a. Activity Intolerance
b. Decreased Cardiac Output
c. Pain, Acute
d. Tissue Perfusion, Ineffective
(Peripheral)Ans. A
Rationale 1: Activity Intolerance Is A Problem Because Of The Imbalance Between Oxygen
SupplyAnd Demand. Cardiac Output Is Not Compromised During An Acute Phase Of
Bronchiolitis. Pain Is Not Usually Associated With Acute Bronchiolitis. Tissue Perfusion
(Peripheral) Is Not Affected By This Respiratory-Disease Process.
Rationale 2: Activity Intolerance Is A Problem Because Of The Imbalance Between Oxygen
SupplyAnd Demand. Cardiac Output Is Not Compromised During An Acute Phase Of
Bronchiolitis. Pain Is Not Usually Associated With Acute Bronchiolitis. Tissue Perfusion
(Peripheral) Is Not Affected By This Respiratory-Disease Process.
Rationale 3: Activity Intolerance Is A Problem Because Of The Imbalance Between Oxygen
SupplyAnd Demand. Cardiac Output Is Not Compromised During An Acute Phase Of
Bronchiolitis. Pain Is Not Usually Associated With Acute Bronchiolitis. Tissue Perfusion
(Peripheral) Is Not Affected By This Respiratory-Disease Process.
Rationale 4: Activity Intolerance Is A Problem Because Of The Imbalance Between Oxygen
SupplyAnd Demand. Cardiac Output Is Not Compromised During An Acute Phase Of
Bronchiolitis. Pain Is Not Usually Associated With Acute Bronchiolitis. Tissue Perfusion
(Peripheral) Is Not Affected By This Respiratory-Disease Process.
