A child with peripheral edema who weighs 44 pounds receives a prescription for furosemide 2 mg/kg intravenously every 12 hours. The medication is available at 10 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Enter numeric value only)

The correct answer is A:

Choice A reason: Review the need for the UAP to wear a face mask while in close contact with the client. Influenza is a respiratory virus that spreads mainly by droplets made when people with flu cough, sneeze or talk.A face mask can help block the spread of these droplets.

Choice B reason:Reminding the UAP to apply a fitted respirator mask before entering the client’s room is not necessary for standard influenza precautions.Respirator masks are more commonly used for airborne precautions, such as tuberculosis or measles, not for influenza.

Choice C reason:Assigning the UAP to provide care for another client and assuming full care of the client is not indicated unless the UAP is not following proper infection control procedures.There is no evidence of that in the scenario provided.

Choice D reason:Instructing the UAP to notify the nurse of any changes in the client’s respiratory status is important, but it is not the immediate action related to infection control.The priority is to prevent the spread of infection.

Choice A: Applying an allergy identification wrist band is an intervention that the nurse should implement, as this can alert other health care providers of the client's allergies and prevent adverse reactions. Therefore, this is a correct choice.

Choice B: Instructing the client to avoid medication containing milk and eggs is not an intervention that the nurse should implement, as this is not a common or relevant source of allergens for this client. This is an incorrect choice.

Choice C: Entering allergy information in the client's electronic medical record is an intervention that the nurse should implement, as this can ensure accurate and updated documentation of the client's allergies and facilitate communication among health care providers. Therefore, this is another correct choice.

Choice D: Ensuring the client's selections from her dietary menu is an intervention that the nurse should implement, as this can help avoid foods that may trigger allergic reactions or intolerance for this client. Therefore, this is another correct choice.

Choice E: Notifying the dietary department of the client's egg intolerance is an intervention that the nurse should implement, as this can help modify or substitute foods that contain eggs for this client. Therefore, this is another correct choice.
