Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : B,C

A. Ibuprofen: Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID commonly used for
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.
B. Docusate sodium: Docusate sodium is a stool softener commonly prescribed with opioids to prevent constipation, a common side effect of opioid use. It helps to prevent or alleviate opioid- induced constipation.
C. Naloxone: Naloxone is an opioid antagonist used to reverse the effects of opioid overdose. It is typically prescribed alongside opioids as a precautionary measure to counteract the respiratory
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.
F. SennA Senna is a stimulant laxative used to treat constipation. While constipation is a concern with opioid use, docusate sodium is more commonly prescribed initially for its stool softening effects

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. The presence of clear, pale red liquid drainage from the rectal tube suggests possible bleeding or other issues that need prompt assessment, making this client a priority.

B. Dark red drainage on a postoperative dressing could indicate bleeding, which requires immediate attention to assess the extent of bleeding and intervene accordingly.

C. Clients with compressed Jackson-Pratt drains may not have adequate drainage, potentially leading to complications such as hematoma or infection if the drain becomes obstructed.

However, since the bulb is compressed, indicating no active drainage, this client can be assessed later.

D. A distended abdomen with no drainage from the nasogastric tube could indicate a bowel obstruction or other gastrointestinal issue requiring urgent assessment, making this client a priority for assessment.

A. Assign the UAP to provide care for another client and assume full care of the client. B. Review the need for the UAP to wear a face mask while in close contact with the client. C. Instruct the UAP to apply a fitted respirator mask before entering the client's room. D. Direct the UAP to notify the nurse of any changes in the client's respiratory status.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Assigning the UAP to another client does not address the need for proper infection control measures when assisting the client with influenza.

B. Wearing a face mask is essential to prevent the transmission of respiratory droplets during close contact with the client with influenza. Reviewing the importance of wearing a face mask reinforces infection control practices.

C. Applying a fitted respirator mask may not be necessary for routine care of a client with influenza and may not be readily available for UAP use.

D. While important, monitoring the client's respiratory status does not directly address the need for infection control measures to prevent the spread of influenza.
