A nurse is caring for a client who has schizophrenia. The nurse should expect the client to exhibit which of the following manifestations? (Select all that apply.)

A. Active range-of-motion exercises are not appropriate for a child with increased intracranial pressure and decreased level of consciousness, as they may increase intracranial pressure.

B. Maintaining the head at a midline position helps promote proper cerebral perfusion and reduces the risk of further increases in intracranial pressure.

C. Frequent suctioning of the airway can stimulate the gag reflex and increase intracranial pressure. Suctioning should only be done as needed to maintain a clear airway.

D. Neurological checks should be performed more frequently than every 4 hours in a child with increased intracranial pressure and decreased level of consciousness, ideally at least every hour or as indicated by the child's condition.

A. Taking the client to the bathroom after a preoperative injection may be unsafe because many preoperative medications can cause sedation or dizziness, increasing the risk of falls.
B. Verification of the surgical site should occur before administration of preoperative medications, as the client may be sedated and unable to participate accurately afterward.
C. Teaching deep breathing and coughing exercises is most effective before sedation, when the client is alert and able to learn and follow instructions.
D. Raising the side rails on the bed is a priority safety measure after administering preoperative sedatives, as it helps prevent falls and injury while the client is drowsy or unsteady.
