A patient is taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 325 mg, 2 tablets PO every 6 hours. How many grams is the patient receiving in 24 hours?

(Number Only, do not type in gram or g with your answer)

The correct answer is choice C. Activity intolerance related to generalized weakness.

Choice A rationale:

Risk for injury related to depressed sensorium. This choice is not the most appropriate nursing diagnosis for a child with moderate anemia. While anemia can lead to fatigue and weakness, the main concern is the child's ability to tolerate physical activities, not the risk of injury due to a depressed sensorium.

Choice B rationale:

Decreased cardiac output related to abnormal hemoglobin. This choice is not the most suitable nursing diagnosis for a child with moderate anemia. While abnormal hemoglobin levels can affect cardiac output, moderate anemia typically doesn't lead to such a significant decrease in cardiac output that it becomes the primary nursing diagnosis. Activity intolerance is a more relevant concern.

Choice C rationale:

Activity intolerance related to generalized weakness. This is the most appropriate nursing diagnosis for a child diagnosed with moderate anemia. Moderate anemia results in a decrease in oxygen-carrying capacity, leading to generalized weakness and reduced ability to perform physical activities without becoming fatigued. The child's hemoglobin levels are likely low enough to cause noticeable activity intolerance.

Choice D rationale:

Risk for Injury related to dehydration and abnormal hemoglobin. This choice is not the best nursing diagnosis for a child with moderate anemia. Dehydration may exacerbate the effects of anemia, but the primary issue here is the anemia itself causing weakness and activity intolerance, which are better addressed with the choice C diagnosis.

The correct answer is choice C. Treating the underlying disease.

Choice A rationale:

Administration of digoxin. Administering digoxin is not the initial goal for the treatment of secondary hypertension. Digoxin is a medication commonly used to treat heart failure and certain arrhythmias, but it is not a primary intervention for hypertension. The rationale for this choice being incorrect lies in the fact that digoxin primarily affects the heart's contractility and is not a preferred option for managing high blood pressure.

Choice B rationale:

Weight control and diet. Weight control and dietary modifications are important aspects of managing hypertension, both primary and secondary. However, they are not the initial goal for the treatment of secondary hypertension. While these lifestyle modifications can contribute to blood pressure reduction, the primary focus in secondary hypertension is to identify and address the underlying condition causing the high blood pressure.

Choice C rationale:

Treating the underlying disease. Correct Answer. The initial goal for the treatment of secondary hypertension is to address the underlying disease or condition that is causing the elevated blood pressure. Unlike primary hypertension, which often lacks a specific underlying cause, secondary hypertension results from an identifiable condition such as kidney disease, hormonal disorders, or certain medications. Treating the root cause can lead to blood pressure normalization.

Choice D rationale:

Administration of β-adrenergic receptor blockers. Administering β-adrenergic receptor blockers is not typically the initial goal for the treatment of secondary hypertension. While these medications can lower blood pressure by blocking the effects of adrenaline and reducing heart rate, they are not the first-line approach for addressing the underlying cause of secondary hypertension.
