Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is {"A":{"answers":"B"},"B":{"answers":"A"},"C":{"answers":"A"},"D":{"answers":"A"},"E":{"answers":"A"}}

Choice A reason: False: Hand washing should be performed not only when exiting the client's room but also before entering the room and after any direct contact with the client or potentially contaminated surfaces within the room.

Choice B reason: True : The client has been diagnosed with Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), which is a highly contagious virus. It can spread through droplets in the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes, or by touching a surface that has the virus on it. Therefore, contact and droplet precautions are necessary.

Choice C reason: True: Gowns and gloves should be worn whenever there is a potential for contact with secretions, especially when dealing with a patient who has a contagious condition like RSV. This is part of standard precautions to prevent the spread of infection.

Choice D reason: True: A mask should always be worn when in the client's room because RSV can be spread through droplets in the air. This is part of droplet precautions.

Choice E reason: True: This client would require a private room if admitted because RSV is highly contagious. Isolation in a private room is one of the strategies used to prevent the spread of the virus.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A reason: Having the client sign a new surgical permit is not necessary unless the surgeon agrees to the addition of the procedure after being informed.

Choice B reason: The nurse should inform the surgeon about the client's request to include the removal of the second lipoma. The surgeon will decide if it is feasible and safe to add the procedure to the current surgical plan.

Choice C reason: The nurse cannot unilaterally add procedures to a surgical permit; this must be done by the surgeon after evaluating the client's condition and the risks involved.

Choice D reason: Notifying the surgical staff of the client's confusion does not address the client's request and may not lead to a resolution of the issue.

A. Heart rate. B. Blood pressure. C. Temperature. D. Respiratory rate.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A reason: While heart rate is important, it is not the most immediate concern when a client shows signs of cyanosis.

Choice B reason: Blood pressure is a critical vital sign but does not directly address the issue of oxygenation, which is suggested by cyanosis.

Choice C reason: Temperature is less relevant to the immediate assessment of cyanosis, which is often related to oxygenation issues.

Choice D reason: Respiratory rate should be assessed first as cyanosis is a sign of potential hypoxia, and the respiratory rate can provide immediate information about the client's breathing and oxygenation status.
