A provider prescribes quetiapine 50 mg PO divided equally every 12 hours for 3 days. Available is quetiapine 25 mg tablets. How many tablets should the nurse administer per dose on day 3? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Choice A: A clear liquid diet is not appropriate for a client with hyperemesis gravidarum, which is a severe form of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy that can lead to dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and weight loss. A clear liquid diet does not provide adequate calories, protein, vitamins, or minerals for the client and the fetus.

Choice B: Administration of diethylstilbestrol is not indicated for a client with hyperemesis gravidarum. Diethylstilbestrol is a synthetic estrogen that was used in the past to prevent miscarriage and premature birth, but it was found to cause serious adverse effects such as vaginal cancer, infertility, and birth defects in the offspring.

Choice C: Total parenteral nutrition is the correct choice because it provides a complete and balanced source of nutrients through a central venous catheter. It is used for clients who cannot tolerate oral or enteral feeding due to severe gastrointestinal disorders such as hyperemesis gravidarum. It helps to prevent malnutrition, dehydration, and ketosis in the client and the fetus.

Choice D: Nothing by mouth is not a suitable option for a client with hyperemesis gravidarum. It can worsen the condition by causing starvation, acidosis, and ketosis. It can also increase the risk of aspiration pneumonia if the client vomits.

Choice A Reason: This is incorrect because administering Rho(D) immune globulin 24 hours before delivery is too early and may not provide adequate protection for the fetus. Administering it 24 hours after delivery is too late and may not prevent the mother from developing antibodies against the fetal Rh-positive blood cells.

Choice B Reason: This is incorrect because administering Rho(D) immune globulin in the first trimester is unnecessary and may not be effective, as the risk of Rh isoimmunization is very low before 28 weeks of gestation. Administering it within 2 hours of delivery is appropriate, but not sufficient, as it should be repeated within 72 hours after delivery.

Choice C Reason: This is correct because administering Rho(D) immune globulin at 28 weeks gestation and again within 72 hours after delivery is the recommended schedule for preventing Rh isoimmunization in Rh-negative pregnant women who have Rh-positive partners. This regimen can prevent up to 99% of cases of Rh isoimmunization by blocking the maternal immune response to the fetal Rh-positive blood cells.

Choice D Reason: This is incorrect because administering Rho(D) immune globulin at 32 weeks gestation is too late and may not prevent Rh isoimmunization if there has been any fetal-maternal hemorrhage before that time. Administering it immediately before discharge is also too late and may not prevent the mother from developing antibodies against the fetal Rh-positive blood cells.
