A nurse is teaching about safe handling of formula to a client who is postpartum and chooses to bottle feed her newborn.
Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Administer high-dose antibiotic therapy.

Rationale:

• A. Initiate droplet isolation precautions is incorrect because cystic fibrosis is not transmitted by droplets, but by autosomal recessive inheritance.
• B. Keep the child on NPO status for 12 hr is incorrect because there is no indication for withholding oral intake in this child. The child needs adequate hydration and nutrition to prevent dehydration and malnutrition due to increased metabolic demands and mucus production.
• C. Maintain the child on bed rest for 24 hr is incorrect because bed rest can worsen the child's respiratory status by decreasing lung expansion and increasing mucus retention. The child needs to be encouraged to ambulate and participate in activities as tolerated to promote airway clearance and prevent atelectasis and infection.
• D. Administer high-dose antibiotic therapy is correct because the child has signs of a pulmonary infection, such as wheezing, productive cough, and thick sputum. Antibiotics are indicated to treat the infection and prevent complications such as pneumonia and bronchiectasis.

- A: Incorrect. Decreased blood pressure is not an indication of chlorpromazine effectiveness, but rather a potential adverse effect that should be monitored and reported.

- B: Correct. Decreased hallucinations are an indication of chlorpromazine effectiveness, as this medication is an antipsychotic that blocks dopamine receptors in the brain and reduces psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and paranoia.

- C: Incorrect. Decreased cholesterol is not an indication of chlorpromazine effectiveness, but rather a potential benefit that may occur due to its effect on lipid metabolism.

- D: Incorrect. Decreased esophageal reflux is not an indication of chlorpromazine effectiveness, but rather a potential adverse effect that should be avoided by taking the medication with food or water and avoiding lying down after administration.
