1300:

• Heart rate 118/min
• Respiratory rate 28/min
• Blood pressure 91/52 mm Hg

Choice A reason:
Needing a new hearing aid every year is not accurate. Hearing aids are not typically replaced annually unless there is a specific issue or significant changes in hearing.
Choice B reason:
"I should gradually increase the time that I wear the hearing aid. “This statement indicates an understanding of the appropriate approach to adapting to a new hearing aid. Gradually increasing the time spent wearing the hearing aid allows the individual to acclimate to the new sounds and avoid overwhelming the auditory system. Starting with shorter periods of use and gradually extending the time can help improve comfort and effectiveness.
Choice C reason:
Leaving the battery in the hearing aid when not in use can lead to battery drain and potential damage. It's important to remove the battery when the hearing aid is not being used.
Choice D reason:
Turning the hearing aid up to the highest volume immediately after insertion is not appropriate. Starting at a lower volume and gradually adjusting as needed is a more appropriate approach to prevent discomfort or potential damage to the ears.

Choice A reason:
Injecting air into the short-acting insulin vial is the first action to be taken. When mixing short-acting and intermediate-acting insulins in the same syringe, the first step is to inject air into the short-acting insulin (clear) vial. This helps equalize the pressure within the vial, making it easier to withdraw the correct dose of insulin
Choice B reason:
Drawing up the desired dose of intermediate-acting insulin into the same syringe is incorrect because it is the last step to be taken.
Choice C reason:
Drawing up the desired dose of short-acting insulin into the syringe is incorrect because it is the third step to be taken.
Choice D reason:
Inject air into the intermediate-acting insulin (cloudy) vial is incorrect because it is the second step to be taken
