MATERIAL

A client receives a prescription for tetracycline (Sumycin). Which instruction should the nurse include in
the client's teaching?



a) take the medication with a glass of orange juice

b) avoid over-the-counter medications containing alcohol

c) avoid dairy products for 2 hours after taking the medication

d) do not use teeth whitening agents during the treatment regimen

c) avoid dairy products for 2 hours after taking the medication



rationale: dairy should not be ingested until at least 2 hours after taking Sumycin because the calcium
from the dairy binds with tetracycline and decreases the medication's absorption




A client receives a new prescription for pentazocine (Talwin), a mixed opioid agonist-antagonist, after an
opioid agonist is discontinued. What is the advantage for the client when the new prescription is
implemented?



a) tolerance does not occur

b) less agitation is experienced

c) the analgesic ceiling is higher

d) respiratory depression is less

d) respiratory depression is less

,rationale: mixed agonist-antagonist bind as an agonist at the Kappa receptor and as antagonists or
partial agonists on the mu receptor, which produces less respiratory depression than opioid agonists
that are pure mu agonists.




A client with Paget's disease is started on calcitonin (Calcimar) 500 mcg subq daily. During the initial
treatment, what is the priority nursing action?



a) assess the injection site for inflammation

b) evaluate the client's level of pain

c) monitor the client's alkaline phosphatase levels

d) observe the client for signs of hypersensitivity

d) observe the client for signs of hypersensitivity



rationale: calcitonin is given to a client with Paget's disease to lower serum calcium levels. The nurse's
highest priority is to observe for signs of hypersensitivity. Upon initiation of treatment, emergency
equipment should be readily available.




When assessing a client prior to the administration of digoxin (Lanoxin), which data is most important
for the nurse to consider?



a) presence of a grade 2 murmur

b) nailbed capillary refill of 5 seconds

c) irregular apical pulse with a rate of 87

d) bilateral lower extremity dependent rubor

c) irregular apical pulse with a rate of 87



rationale: the action of digoxin is to slow the heart rate and strengthen the force of contraction, so it
is essential for the nurse to auscultate the apical pulse for a full minute and that the apical pulse is
>60bpm for an adult and >90bpm for an infant prior to administration. If outside this range, hold and
recheck in 1 hour.

rationale: recommended medical treatment for a peptic ulcer caused by H.pylori includes the use of at
least 2 different antibiotics and a PPI to decrease the incidence of antibiotic resistance

X-ray department. Which action should the nurse implement?



a) return the blood to the blood bank for refrigeration within 30 minutes

c) store the blood bag in the nursing unit's refrigerator until the client returns

d) take the unit of blood to the X-ray department to initiate the transfusion

a) return the blood to the blood bank for refrigeration within 30 minutes

, rationale: a blood transfusion should be hung for administration within 30 minutes of its arrival from
the blood bank. If it is not going to be used within that time frame, it must be returned to the blood
bank for refrigeration. Waiting can contribute to contamination and infection.
