✓ B. A nurse with Marfan's syndrome who is postmenopausal.

✓ RATIONALE:

✓ A client receiving intracavity radiation poses a radiation hazard as long

as the intracavity

✓ radiation source is in place. A nurse's ability to care of this client is not

affected by Marfan's

✓ syndrome (B), which is a hereditary disorder of connective tissues,

bones, muscles, ligaments

✓ and skeletal structures. The goal is to limit any one staff member's

exposure to the calculated

✓ time span based on the half-life of radium, such as the number of

minutes at the bedside per day,

✓ so (A) should not be assigned. (C) should not be exposed to the

radiation due to the possible

✓ effect on the fetus. A radiation exposure decreases the immune

response in the client who should

✓ not be exposed to the potential inadvertent transmission of an

infectious organism (D).




1.A client who has active tuberculosis (TB) is admitted to the medical unit.

What action is most

important for the nurse to implement?


A. Fit the client with a respirator mask.


B. Assign the client to a negative air-flow room.


C. Don a clean gown for client care.


D. Place an isolation cart in the hallway


✓ Assign the client to a negative air-flow room

✓ RATIONALE:

✓ Active tuberculosis requires implementation of airborne precautions, so

the client should be

✓ assigned to a negative pressure air-flow room (D). Although (A and C)

should be implemented

✓ for clients in isolation with contact precautions, it is most important that

air flow from the room

✓ is minimized when the client has TB. (B) should be implemented when

the client leaves the

✓ isolation environment.




2.A client is receiving atenolol (Tenormin) 25 mg PO after a myocardial

infarction. The nurse


determines the client's apical pulse is 65 beats per minute. What action

should the nurse

implement


next?


A. Measure the blood pressure.


B. Reassess the apical pulse.


C. Notify the healthcare provider.


D. Administer the medication.


✓ Administer the medication

✓ RATIONALE:

✓ Atenolol, a beta-blocker, blocks the beta receptors of the sinoatrial

node to reduce the heart rate,

✓ so the medication should be administered (C) because the client's

apical pulse is greater than 60.

✓ (A, B, and D) are not indicated at this time.




3.The nurse is assessing a client and identifies a bruit over the thyroid. This

finding is consistent


with which interpretation?


A. Hypothyroidism.


B. Thyroid cyst.


C. Thyroid cancer.
