Answer and Explanation

pain relief and inflammation. However, it may not be suitable for this patient due to the potential risk of bleeding and interference with wound healing after surgery.

depression and sedation that can occur with opioid use. Administering naloxone can rapidly reverse these effects and restore normal breathing if opioid overdose is suspected.

D. Propofol: Propofol is a sedative-hypnotic medication used for anesthesia induction and
maintenance during surgical procedures. It is not typically prescribed for pain management after surgery.
E. Methadone: Methadone is an opioid agonist often used for managing chronic pain and opioid dependence. While it is an option for pain management, it may not be the first choice for acute post-operative pain relief.

Explanation

A. 18%: This would be the correct percentage for one leg only.

B. 36%: According to the Rule of Nines in burn assessment, each leg (including the foot) accounts for 18% of the body surface area. Since both lower extremities are affected, it totals 36% body surface area.

C. 4%: This percentage is too low for the described injury.

D. 09%: This would not be enough even for one leg, as each leg is 18%.

A. Advise the client to place one nitroglycerin tablet under his tongue as a precaution. B. Tell the client to have someone bring him to an emergency department immediately. C. Instruct the client to increase his intake of oral fluids until the skin flushing is relieved. D. Reassure the client that skin flushing is a common side effect of the medication.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

- A: Nitroglycerin is contraindicated with tadalafil due to the risk of severe hypotension. Advising the client to take nitroglycerin could lead to a dangerous drop in blood pressure.
- B: While it is important to monitor for serious side effects, immediate emergency department care may not be necessary if the client is not experiencing chest pain or other severe symptoms.
- C: Increasing oral fluids does not address the underlying cause of the skin flushing and is not a recommended action for this symptom in relation to tadalafil use.
- D: Skin flushing is a common side effect of tadalafil and is usually self-limiting. Reassuring the client about the nature of this side effect is appropriate, as long as the client is not experiencing chest pain or other severe symptoms related to his history of stable angina.
