The healthcare provider prescribes allopurinol 0.2 grams PO for a client with gout. The available medication is labeled, "Allopurinol tablets 200 mg." How many tablets should the nurse administer? (Enter numerical value only, rounded to the nearest whole number.)

B. Hospice services can be initiated while the client is still in the hospital. Hospice teams can work alongside the hospital staff to provide care and support to the client and family during the transition to hospice care.
C. Hospice care emphasizes the involvement of family members in the care of the patient. The hospice team works with the patient and family to develop a personalized plan of care that addresses the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the patient and family members.
D. Hospice care focuses on providing comfort, maintaining dignity, and offering emotional support to patients with terminal illnesses and their families. The goal is to enhance quality of life and ensure that the patient's wishes and preferences are respected throughout the end-of- life process.
E. Hospice care can be provided in various settings, including the patient's own home, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, or inpatient hospice units. The option to receive care in the comfort of home is often preferred by many patients and families as it allows them to remain in familiar surroundings surrounded by loved ones.

B. When the oxygen saturation is lower than expected, the nurse's first action should be to verify the accuracy of the reading by ensuring the proper placement and functioning of the pulse oximeter. This involves checking that the pulse oximeter probe is securely attached to the client's finger or other appropriate site and that there are no obstructions or interference affecting the reading.

A. A non-rebreather mask delivers higher concentrations of oxygen compared to a nasal cannula and is typically used when a client requires higher levels of oxygen supplementation. However, switching to a non-rebreather mask may not be appropriate without further assessment.

C. Increasing the oxygen flow rate to 3 L/minute would deliver a higher concentration of oxygen to the client, potentially improving oxygen saturation. However, increasing the oxygen flow should be done cautiously and based on clinical assessment to avoid oxygen toxicity.

D. Removing the nasal cannula would deprive the client of supplemental oxygen, which may not be appropriate if the client's oxygen saturation is already low. Oxygen supplementation is typically provided to improve oxygenation and support vital organ function.
