A nurse is preparing to administer 40 mg of furosemide IV. Available is furosemide 10 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose?

Choice A reason:

The statement “This stage is when testing occurs to identify boundaries of interpersonal behaviors” describes the storming stage of group development. During the storming stage, group members test boundaries and challenge each other, leading to conflicts and disagreements.

Choice B reason:

The norming stage is characterized by the development of group cohesion and consensus. During this stage, group members start to resolve their differences, appreciate each other’s strengths, and work together more effectively. Consensus evolves as the group establishes norms and agrees on common goals.

Choice C reason:

While constructive efforts are part of the norming stage, the statement is too vague to indicate a clear understanding of this specific stage. Constructive efforts can occur in various stages of group development, including performing.

Choice D reason:

Resistance and the formation of subgroups are typical of the storming stage, not the norming stage. In the storming stage, conflicts and power struggles are common as group members assert their opinions and roles.

Choice A reason:

Blurred vision: While blurred vision can occur in some cases of meningitis, it is not one of the most common or definitive symptoms. Meningitis primarily affects the meninges, leading to symptoms like headache, fever, and neck stiffness. Blurred vision might be a secondary symptom due to increased intracranial pressure, but it is not as typical as other symptoms.

Choice B reason:

Severe headache: A severe headache is a hallmark symptom of meningitis. This headache is often described as intense and different from typical headaches. It is caused by the inflammation of the meninges, which are the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord. The headache is usually accompanied by other symptoms such as fever, neck stiffness, and sensitivity to light.

Choice C reason:

Oriented to person, place, and year: Being oriented to person, place, and year indicates normal cognitive function. However, meningitis can cause confusion, altered mental status, and even loss of consciousness in severe cases. Therefore, this finding would not be expected in a client with meningitis.

Choice D reason:

Bradycardia: Bradycardia, or a slow heart rate, is not typically associated with meningitis. Meningitis symptoms are more related to the central nervous system and include fever, headache, neck stiffness, and altered mental status. Bradycardia might occur in other conditions but is not a common finding in meningitis.
