Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Base deficit (HCO3): Acidosis: A base deficit indicates metabolic acidosis, but respiratory acidosis is more likely with the high rate of ventilation.

C. Base excess (HCO3): Alkalosis: This would indicate metabolic alkalosis, but it is not as related to ventilator settings.

D. Acid deficit (CO2): Alkalosis: If the CO2 level is too low due to hyperventilation, this can lead to alkalosis, which the nurse is questioning here.

A. Tell the student to stop playing immediately if any dyspnea occurs. B. Refer the student to a cardiologist for further diagnostic testing. C. Allow the student to participate on the soccer team. D. Obtain more detailed information about the student's family health history.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. It is appropriate to monitor for symptoms of bradycardia, but the student is currently asymptomatic.

B. Referral to a cardiologist is not necessary unless the student develops symptoms or other concerning signs.

D. Family history may be helpful, but this is not the immediate priority when the student is asymptomatic.
