The nurse is assigning care of a client with prostatitis to a practical nurse (PN). Which instruction should the nurse provide the PN regarding this client?

Choice A reason: This is correct because a firm mattress reduces the risk of suffocation and rebreathing of carbon dioxide, which are associated with SIDS.

Choice B reason: This is incorrect because propping the infant with a pillow can cause the infant to slide down and suffocate or obstruct the airway.

Choice C reason: This is incorrect because swaddling the infant in a blanket can cause overheating, which is a risk factor for SIDS.

Choice D reason: This is incorrect because placing the infant in a prone position can increase the risk of SIDS by impairing gas exchange and thermoregulation.

Choice A: Advising the client to place one nitroglycerin tablet under his tongue as a precaution is a dangerous action for the nurse, as this can cause severe hypotension and cardiovascular collapse due to the interaction between tadalafil and nitroglycerin. This is a contraindicated choice.

Choice B: Telling the client to have someone bring him to an emergency department immediately is an unnecessary action for the nurse, as there is no evidence of any serious adverse reaction or complication from tadalafil. This is an overreaction choice.

Choice C: Instructing the client to increase his intake of oral fluids until the skin flushing is relieved is not an appropriate action for the nurse, as this does not address the cause of the flushing, which is vasodilation due to tadalafil. This is a distractor choice.

Choice D: Reassuring the client that skin flushing is a common side effect of the medication is an appropriate action for the nurse, as this can calm the client and educate him about the expected effects of tadalafil. Therefore, this is the correct choice.
