A nurse is preparing to administer acetaminophen 10/mg/kg PO to a preschool child for fever. The child weighs 22 lb. Available is acetaminophen liquid 160 mg/5 mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

B. The narrowing of the aorta results in increased resistance to blood flow beyond the constriction, leading to decreased blood pressure in the lower body, including the legs. As a result, the blood pressure in the arms may be significantly higher than in the legs, creating a notable blood pressure gradient between the upper and lower extremities.

A. Pulmonary edema is not a typical manifestation of coarctation of the aorta. Coarctation of the aorta involves a narrowing of the aortic arch, typically occurring after the branching of the vessels supplying the upper body.

C. Severe cyanosis is not typically associated with coarctation of the aorta. Cyanosis, a bluish discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes due to inadequate oxygenation of the blood, is more commonly seen in conditions affecting pulmonary circulation or oxygenation of the blood, such as congenital heart defects involving right-to-left shunting of blood.

D. A machine-like murmur is not a typical finding in coarctation of the aorta. The characteristic murmur associated with coarctation of the aorta is a systolic ejection murmur heard best over the back or left axilla.

A. Wheezing, which is a high-pitched whistling sound heard during expiration, is a common symptom of asthma. It occurs due to narrowed airways and airflow obstruction, often in response to triggers such as allergens, respiratory infections, or exercise.

B. Low-grade fever in the afternoon is not typically associated with asthma. Fever is more commonly seen in response to infections, such as respiratory infections, which can exacerbate asthma symptoms but is not a direct manifestation of asthma itself.

C. Without the complete statement, it is difficult to assess its relevance to asthma symptoms. However, an abrupt onset of symptoms, such as sudden shortness of breath or chest tightness, may occur during an asthma attack or exacerbation.

D. Sharp pleuritic pain is not a typical finding in asthma. Pleuritic pain, which is sharp and worsened by breathing, is more commonly associated with conditions affecting the pleura, such as pneumonia or pleurisy.
