QUESTION 1 (NGN: Single Response)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
────────────
,A mother rushes into the ED carrying a toddler who has been exposed to cleaning chemicals. The child smells
strongly of chemicals on the hands, face, and clothing. After ensuring the airway is patent, what action should the
nurse implement first?
A. Rinse the child’s mouth thoroughly with water.
B. Remove all contaminated clothing and flush the skin.
C. Induce vomiting to remove any ingested toxin.
D. Determine the type of chemical exposure.
ANSWER: D. Determine the type of chemical exposure
Expert-Verified Explanation:
• After airway stabilization, identifying the specific toxin is crucial because treatment varies by the chemical involved.
• Inducing vomiting can be dangerous with certain caustic chemicals (risk of re-injury).
• Removing contaminated clothing and flushing are important, but determining the chemical informs all subsequent
care, poison control measures, and possible antidotes.

QUESTION 2 (NGN: Select All That Apply)

────────────
Which conditions are most likely to respond to treatment with antihistamines? (Select all that apply.)
A. Bronchitis
B. Allergic rhinitis
C. Otitis media
D. Contact dermatitis
E. Myocarditis
ANSWERS: B, D
Expert-Verified Explanation:
• Allergic rhinitis is an inflammatory reaction involving histamine release in the nasal passages—antihistamines help
reduce these symptoms.
, • Contact dermatitis can involve a local histamine-mediated response—antihistamines may reduce itching and
inflammation.
• Bronchitis, otitis media, and myocarditis do not routinely respond to antihistamines as primary therapy.

QUESTION 3 (NGN: Select All That Apply)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
────────────
An older client’s daughter calls the home health nurse, reporting that her mother became forgetful a few days ago
and is increasingly confused at night. Which actions should the nurse take? (Select all that apply.)
A. Ask if her mother is experiencing pain with urination.
B. Encourage increased intake of high-protein foods.
C. Instruct the daughter to check her mother’s temperature.
D. Review current food and medication allergies.
E. Determine if her mother has had any recent fall.
ANSWERS: A, C, E
Expert-Verified Explanation:
• Sudden onset confusion in an older adult can be caused by infection, such as a urinary tract infection (UTI). Asking
about dysuria and checking temperature helps identify infection.
• A recent fall might contribute to injury or subdural hematoma, causing confusion.
• Although nutrition is important, the immediate concern is ruling out acute triggers (infection, injury) for new-onset
confusion.

────────────
A male client with a history of Addison’s disease has flu-like symptoms, nausea, and vomiting for a week. His spouse
