A 6-month-old infant with congestive heart failure (CHF) is receiving digoxin elixir. Which observation by the nurse warrants immediate intervention? Apical heart rate of 60. Sweating across the forehead. Doesn't suck well. Respiratory rate of 30 breaths per minute. - Apical heart rate of 60. A heart rate of 60 (A) is much lower than normal for a 6-month-old and warrants immediate intervention. The normal heart rate for a 6-month-old is 80 to 150 BPM when awake, and a rate of 70 while sleeping is considered within normal limits. (B and C) are expected symptoms of heart failure in an infant. (D) is within normal limits for an infant. The nurse is teaching the parents of a 5-year-old with cystic fibrosis about respiratory treatments. Which statement indicates to the nurse that the parents understand? Perform postural drainage before starting aerosol therapy. Give respiratory treatments when the child is coughing a lot. Administer aerosol therapy followed by postural drainage before meals. Ensure respiratory therapy is done daily during any respiratory infection. - Administer aerosol therapy followed by postural drainage before meals. Postural drainage for a child with cystic fibrosis is most effective when performed after nebulization and before meals (C) or at least 1 hour after eating to prevent nausea and vomiting. Postural drainage uses gravity to promote mucous removal after nebulization (A) treatments which open the airways. Pulmonary toileting or respiratory treatments should be given 3 to 4 times daily, not episodically (B and D). A female teenager is taking oral tetracycline HCL (Achromycin V) for acne vulgaris. What is the most important instruction for the nurse to include in this client's teaching plan? Use sunscreen when lying by the pool. Cleanse the skin at least 4 times a day. Take the medication with a glass of milk. Menstrual periods may become irregular. - Use sunscreen when lying by the pool. Photosensitivity is a common side effect of tetracycline HCL (Achromycin V) therapy. Severe sunburn can occur with minimal sun exposure and clients should be instructed to avoid sunlight and to use sunscreen (A). (B and D) are not related to tetracycline HCL (Achromycin V) therapy. (C) should be avoided because dairy products interfere with the absorption of tetracyclines. PEDIATRICS HESI 2024 LATEST AND UPDATED EXAM. What preoperative nursing intervention should be included in the plan of care for an infant with pyloric stenosis? Monitor for signs of metabolic acidosis. Estimate the quantity of diarrhea stools. Place in a supine position after feeding. Observe for projectile vomiting. - Observe for projectile vomiting. Projectile vomiting (D), which contributes to metabolic alkalosis (A), is the classic sign of pyloric stenosis. (B) is not indicated. (C) is dangerous, due to the potential for aspiration with frequent vomiting. An infant is born with a ventricular septal defect (VSD) and surgery is planned to correct the defect. The nurse recognizes that surgical correction is designed to achieve which outcome? Stop the flow of unoxygenated blood into systemic circulation. Increase the flow of unoxygenated blood to the lungs. Prevent the return of oxygenated blood to the lungs. Reduce peripheral tissue hypoxia and nailbed clubbing - Prevent the return of oxygenated blood to the lungs. Closure of VSDs stops oxygenated blood from being shunted from the left ventricle to the right ventricle (C). VSDs are acyanotic defects, which means that no unoxygenated blood enters the systemic circulation (A and B). (D) is common with Tetrology of Fallot, which is a cyanotic defect. A 3-week-old newborn is brought to the clinic for follow-up after a home birth. The mother reports that her child bottle feeds for 5 minutes only and then falls asleep. The nurse auscultates a loud murmur characteristic of a ventricular septal defect (VSD), and finds the newborn is acyanotic with a respiratory rate of 64 breaths per minute. What instruction should the nurse provide the mother to ensure the infant is receiving adequate intake? (Select all that apply.) A. Monitor the the infant's weight and number of wet diapers per day. B. Increase the infant's intake per feeding by 1 to 2 ounces per week. C. Mix the dose of prophylactic antibiotic in a full bottle of formula. D. Allow the infant to rest and refeed on demand or every 2 hours. E. Use a softer nipple or increase the size of the nipple opening. - A. Monitor the the infant's weight and number of wet diapers per day. B. Increase the infant's intake per feeding by 1 to 2 ounces per week. D. Allow the infant to rest and refeed on demand or every 2 hours. E. Use a softer nipple or increase the size of the nipple opening. Antibiotic prophylaxis is recommended for infants with VSDs, but should not be mixed in a bottle of formula (C) because it is difficult to ensure that the total dose is consumed. They should be monitored for weight gain and at least 6 wet diapers per day (A). A one-
month old infant should ingest 2 to 4 ounces of formula per feeding and progress to about 30 ounces per day by 4-months of age (B) Preoperative nursing care for a child with Wilms' tumor should include which intervention? Gently percuss the abdomen for evidence of trapped air. Observe the abdomen for any noticeable discolorations. Apply cold compresses to the abdomen to reduce edema. Put a sign on the bed reading, "DO NOT PALPATE ABDOMEN." - Put a sign on the bed reading, "DO NOT PALPATE ABDOMEN." Prevention of abdominal palpation (D) minimizes the risk of rupturing the encapsulated tumor and subsequent metastasis. (A) is unnecessary, and this action could traumatize the tumor in the same manner as palpation. (B and C) are incorrect since the abdomen is not discolored and cold compresses are not indicated. At 8 a.m. the unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) informs the charge nurse that a female adolescent client with acute glomerulonephritis has a blood pressure of 210/110. The 4 a.m. blood pressure reading was 170/88. The client reports to the UAP that she is upset because her boyfriend did not visit last night. What action should the nurse take first? Give the client her 9 a.m. prescription for an oral diuretic early. Administer PRN prescription of nifedipine (Procardia) sublingually. Notify the healthcare provider and inform the nursing supervisor of the client's condition. Attempt to calm the client and retake the blood pressure in thirty minutes. - Administer PRN prescription of nifedipine (Procardia) sublingually. Sublingual Procardia (B) lowers blood pressure very quickly, and this should be done first. (A) may also be done, but oral diuretics do not work as rapidly as the sublingual antihypertensive. When notifying the healthcare provider, the first thing he/she will want to know is if the PRN antihypertensive has been administered (C). (D) does not consider the seriousness of this finding. The nurse should stay with the client until the blood pressure is reduced. The nurse is assessing an 8-month-old child who has a medical diagnosis of Tetrology of Fallot. Which symptom is this client most likely to exhibit? Bradycardia. Machinery murmur. Weak pedal pulses. Clubbed fingers. - Clubbed fingers. Tetrology of Fallot, a cyanotic heart defect, causes clubbing of fingers and toes (D) due to tissue hypoxia. Tachycardia, not (A), is a manifestation of congenital heart disease. (B) is a classic sign of ventricular septal defect. (C) is characteristic of coarctation of the aorta. Surgery is being delayed for an infant with undescended testes. In collaboration with the healthcare provider and the family, which prescription should the nurse anticipate? A trial of adrenocorticotrophic hormone injections. Frequent stimulation of the cremasteric reflex. A trial of human chorionic gonadotrophic hormone. Frequent warm baths to gently dilate the scrotal area. - A trial of human chorionic gonadotrophic hormone. A trial of HCG (human chorionic gonadotrophic hormone) (C) may aid in testicular descent, but does not replace surgical repair for true undescended testes. Undescended testes (cryptorchidism) may be found in the inguinal canal due to exaggerated cremasteric reflex. (A) is not indicated. Stimulation of the cremasteric reflex causes the testes to ascend rather than descend in the scrotum (B). (D) may relax the cremasteric muscle, but may not cause the testes to descend. A preschool-age child who is hospitalized for hypospadias repair is most strongly influenced by which behavior? Ability to communicate verbally. Response to separation from family. Concern for body integrity. Socialization with other children. - Concern for body integrity. The preschooler's major stressor is concern for his body integrity (C). He fears that his "insides will leak out." A child undergoing surgery to his genitalia is even more concerned about body integrity. The preschooler is quite verbal, so comprehension of the words he uses or hears may be inaccurate, while his imagination and fears may fantasize the reality (A). (B) is a concern for all children, but of most concern to the toddler. (D) is not a prime concern in this situation. A six-month-old returns from surgery with elbow restraints in place. What nursing care should be included when caring for any restrained child? Keep restraints on at all times. Remove restraints one at a time and provide range of motion exercises. Remove all restraints simultaneously and provide play activities. Renew the healthcare provider's prescription for restraints every 72 hours. - Remove restraints one at a time and provide range of motion exercises. Removing restraints one at a time (B) is safer than removing all of them at once (C). The child needs to exercise and should not be kept in restraints at all times (A). The renewal of the healthcare provider's prescription varies with hospitals (D), and it does not really answer the question.
