A nurse is assessing a child who is being treated for bacterial pneumonia. The nurse notes an increase in the child’s blood glucose. The nurse should identify this finding as an adverse effect of which of the following medication?

A. Wear a dosimeter film badge to measure exposure: The dosimeter badge tracks cumulative radiation exposure to ensure the nurse stays within safe limits. It is essential personal protective equipment when caring for clients undergoing internal radiation therapy.
B. Place a caution sign on the client’s door: A radiation warning sign alerts staff and visitors about the presence of a radioactive source, ensuring they follow safety protocols to minimize unnecessary exposure.
C. Discard bed linens from the client's room at the end of each day: Linens are not contaminated by a sealed implant, as the radiation source is enclosed and does not leak into the environment. Linens should be handled per routine procedure unless visibly soiled.
D. Instruct visitors to remain 61 cm (2 feet) away from the client: Visitors should be instructed to stay at least 6 feet (approximately 183 cm) away and limit visits to 30 minutes. The 2-foot distance is insufficient to ensure safety from radiation exposure.
E. Don a lead apron when providing care: A lead apron helps shield the nurse from radiation exposure when close contact is necessary. It is a standard precaution when interacting with clients who have a sealed radiation source.

A. Grilled hot dog with French fries: Hot dogs may contain fillers with gluten, and cross-contamination in fries is common if shared fryers are used, making this choice unsafe.
B. Oatmeal cookie with raisins: Unless the oats are certified gluten-free, they may be contaminated with gluten during processing, posing a risk for children with celiac disease.
C. Baked sweet potato with cinnamon: Sweet potatoes are naturally gluten-free, and cinnamon is safe as well. This option provides a nutritious and safe food for a child with celiac disease.
D. Hazelnut butter on wheat toast: Wheat toast contains gluten and should be strictly avoided in individuals with celiac disease, even if the topping is gluten-free.
