A nurse is reinforcing teaching with the parents of a child who has ADHD and is taking methylphenidate. Which of the following statements by the parents indicates that the medication is effective?

Explanation:

Methylenedioxyphenol-methamphetamine (MDMA), also known as ecstasy or Molly, is a psychoactive substance that can produce hallucinations as one of its effects. Hallucinations involve perceiving things that are not present in reality, such as seeing, hearing, or feeling things that do not actually exist.

Muscle weakness (choice B) is not a common finding associated with MDMA use. In fact, MDMA typically produces an increase in energy and heightened physical sensations rather than muscle weakness.

Hypothermia (choice C) can occur as a result of MDMA use. MDMA can interfere with the body's ability to regulate temperature, leading to an increase in body temperature. This is commonly known as "drug-induced hyperthermia" rather than hypothermia.

Somnolence (choice D), which refers to excessive sleepiness or drowsiness, is not typically associated with MDMA use. MDMA is a stimulant drug that can produce increased wakefulness and alertness.

Explanation:

A nasal cannula is a device used to deliver supplemental oxygen to a client. It consists of two prongs that are inserted into the client's nostrils and connected to an oxygen source. The nasal cannula is commonly used for low-flow oxygen delivery at a rate of 1 to 2 liters per minute (L/min).

The other options mentioned are not necessary supplies for the client upon discharge:

B- Petroleum jelly is not directly related to oxygen therapy and is not a required supply for the client. It is a common topical ointment used for various purposes such as moisturizing the skin or protecting the lips, but it is not specifically needed for oxygen administration.

C- An oxygen mask is an alternative device for oxygen delivery but is not typically used at a flow rate of 1 to 2 L/min. Oxygen masks are usually employed for higher flow rates or in specific clinical situations that require a different oxygen delivery method.

D- A reservoir bag is a component of some oxygen delivery systems, such as a non-rebreather mask or a bag-valve-mask device. However, at a flow rate of 1 to 2 L/min, a reservoir bag is not typically used. It is more commonly utilized in situations where higher oxygen concentrations or higher flow rates are required.
