Correct Answer is D
Explanation
A low potassium level (hypokalemia) can increase the risk for digoxin toxicity because it enhances the binding of digoxin to cardiac cells and increases its effects on cardiac contractility and electrical conduction. The nurse should monitor the client's potassium level and administer potassium supplements as prescribed if needed. The other electrolytes are not directly related to digoxin toxicity.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
The nurse should instruct the client to use a 10-mL syringe or larger to flush the PICC line with normal saline or heparin solution, as prescribed, to prevent occlusion and thrombosis. The other options are incorrect because they may cause complications such as infection, phlebitis, or bleeding.
