In addition, diarrhea is a sign of lithium toxicity. It is safe to take lithium with other antipsychotics, because the client's behavior may require combination pharmacotherapy. Lith ium should not be taken with diuretics, regardless of the potassium level, because diuretics decrease the sodium level, and lithium is not excreted when the sodium level is decreased. Lithium is useful in both the manic and depressive phases of a bipolar d isorder. At 12 weeks' gestation a client who is Rh negative expels the total products of conception. What is the nursing action after it has been determined that she has not been previously sensitized to Rh -positive red blood cells? Administering Rho(D) immune globulin within 72 hours Making certain that Rho(D) immune globulin is administered at the first clinic visit Withholding the Rho(D) immune globulin because the gestation lasted only 12 weeks Withholding the Rho(D) immune globulin because it is not indicated after fetal death -
ANSWER -Administering Rho(D) immune globulin within 72 hours Rho(D) immune globulin must be given within 72 hours of delivery if the client has not been sensitized previously, regardless of the duration of the gestation . It would not be effective at the first clinic visit, because antibodies have been produced already. Rho(D) immune globulin is always indicated at the termination of a pregnancy, even with a short -term pregnancy or one involving fetal demise.

Hyperplasia of the gums Alkalinity of the oral secretions Irritation of the gingiva and destruction of tooth enamel Promotion of plaque and bacterial growth at the gum line -ANSWER -Hyperplasia of the gums Gingival hyperplasia is an adverse effect of long -term phenytoin therapy; incidence can be decreased by maintaining therapeutic blood levels and meticulous oral hygiene. Alkalinity is not related to phenytoin or to gingival hyperplasia caused by phenytoin. Irritation of the gingiva and destruction of tooth enamel are not direct effects of phenytoin. Plaque and bacterial growth at the gum line are unrelated to phenytoin or to hyperplasia caused by it. A nurse on the Code Blue/Arrest team responds to a code that is called for a client with hyperkalemia who is experiencing cardiac standstill.

Electrical defibrillation should not be app lied indiscriminately to the patient in asystole. This is not only fruitless but also
