,Chapter 1: Bronchiolitis gi g i
1. Which intervention is appropriate for the infant hospitalized with bronchiolitis?
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
a. Position on the side with neck slightly flexed. gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
b. Administer antibiotics as ordered. gi gi gi
c. Restrict oral and parenteral fluids if tachypneic.gi gi gi gi gi gi
d. Give cool, humidified gi gi gi
oxygen. ANSWER: D gi gi
Cool, humidified oxygen is given to relieve dyspnea, hypoxemia, and insensible fluid loss from tac
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
hypnea. The infant should be positioned with the head and chest elevated at a 30- to 40-
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
degreeangle and the neck slightly extended to maintain an open airway and decrease pressure on th
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
e diaphragm. The etiology of bronchiolitis is viral. Antibiotics are given only if there is a secondary
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
bacterial infection. Tachypnea increases insensible fluid loss. If the infant is tachypneic, fluids aregi
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
ven parenterally to prevent dehydration.

2. An infant with bronchiolitis is hospitalized. The causative organism is respiratory sync
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
ytial virus (RSV). The nurse knows that a child infected with this virus requires whattype
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
of isolation?
gi gi
a. Reverse isolation gi
b. Airborne isolation gi
c. Contact Precautions gi
d. Standard Precautions gi gi
ANSWER: C gi
RSV is transmitted through droplets. In addition to Standard Precautions and hand washing, Cont
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
act Precautions are required. Caregivers must use gloves and gowns when entering the room. Care
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi g
is taken not to touch their own eyes or mucous membranes with a contaminated gloved hand.Chil
i gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
dren are placed in a private room or in a room with other children with RSV infections.
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
Reverse isolation focuses on keeping bacteria away from the infant. With RSV, other children need
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
to be protected from exposure to the virus. The virus is not airborne.
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
3. A child has a chronic cough and diffuse wheezing during the expiratory phase of respiration.
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
This suggests what condition?
gi gi gi
a. Asthma
b. Pneumonia
c. Bronchiolitis
d. Foreign body in gi gi gi
trachea ANSWER: A gi gi
Asthma may have these chronic signs and symptoms. Pneumonia appears with an acute onset, fever,
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
and general malaise. Bronchiolitis is an acute condition caused by respiratory syncytial
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
, virus. Foreign body in the trachea occurs with acute respiratory distress or failure and maybe stridor.
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
4. Which nursing diagnosis is most appropriate for an infant with acute bronchiolitis due to
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)? gi gi gi
a. Activity Intolerance gi
b. Decreased Cardiac Output gi gi
c. Pain, Acute gi
d. Tissue Perfusion, Ineffective (peripheral) gi gi gi gi
