A nurse is assisting a client who has irritable bowel syndrome with meal selections.

Which of the following foods should the nurse remind the client to include in her diet?

This step is part of the process when mixing NPH and regular insulin in a single syringe. After injecting air into the NPH insulin vial, you should inject an equal amount of air (in this case, 15 units) into the regular insulin vial to maintain pressure balance. This allows for easy withdrawal of the prescribed doses of each insulin type in the same syringe without causing a vacuum in the vials.

After injecting air into the NPH insulin vial (step 1), the nurse should proceed to inject air into the regular insulin vial (step 2) before withdrawing the insulin doses in the subsequent steps.

Verifying the dosage with another nurse is not necessary in this step, as it is done prior to drawing up the insulin. However, it is good practice to have another nurse double-check the dosage before administration.

Injecting air into the regular insulin vial is not required at this stage. It is only necessary when withdrawing the regular insulin dose.

Placing the cap over the needle should be done after withdrawing the desired dose of insulin and before administering it to the client for safety and to prevent needlestick injuries.

The correct sequence when mixing NPH and regular insulin in a single syringe is as follows:

1. Inject air into the NPH insulin vial (in this case, 10 units of air).
2. Inject air into the regular insulin vial (in this case, 15 units of air).
3. Withdraw the prescribed dose of NPH insulin (10 units) from the NPH vial.
4. Withdraw the prescribed dose of regular insulin (15 units) from the regular insulin vial.

So, after injecting air into the NPH insulin vial (step 1), the nurse should proceed to inject air into the regular insulin vial (step 2) before withdrawing the insulin doses in the subsequent steps.

RSV is primarily transmitted through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes. To prevent the spread of RSV, it is important to implement droplet precautions. These precautions include wearing a mask and ensuring proper hand hygiene when in contact with the preschooler.

This helps minimize the risk of transmitting the virus to other individuals. Requesting an x-ray of the preschooler's neck is not indicated for RSV. RSV primarily affects the respiratory system, and an x-ray of the neck would not provide relevant information for the diagnosis or management of RSV.

Monitoring the preschooler's urine for protein is not specifically related to RSV. Proteinuria is not a typical manifestation or complication of RSV. Monitoring urine for protein is more relevant in conditions such as kidney disease or urinary tract infections.

Administering fluconazole to the preschooler is not indicated for RSV. Fluconazole is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal infections, and it would not be effective against a viral infection like RSV.
