Perform a blind finger sweep. - ANSWER//B, C, D
Rationale: The fingers are placed at the same location on an infant as chest
compressions for CPR; however, the nurse must deliver five chest thrusts, after the five
back slaps. Blind sweeps are not used as this action may push the object deeper into
the throat. The remaining steps are correct.

A.
5% Dextrose and water
B.
Normal saline
C.
Lactated Ringers solution
D.

When assisting a client from the bed to a chair, which procedure is best for the nurse to
follow?
A.
Place the chair parallel to the bed, with its back toward the head of the bed and assist
the client in moving to the chair.
B.
With the nurse's feet spread apart and knees aligned with the client's knees, stand and
pivot the client into the chair.
C.
Assist the client to a standing position by gently lifting upward, underneath the axillae.
D.
, Stand beside the client, place the client's arms around the nurse's neck, and gently
move the client to the chair. - ANSWER//B
Rationale: Option B describes the correct positioning of the nurse and affords the nurse
a wide base of support while stabilizing the client's knees when assisting to a standing
position. The chair should be placed at a 45-degree angle to the bed, with the back of
the chair toward the head of the bed. Clients should never be lifted under the axillae;
this could damage nerves and strain the nurse's back. The client should be instructed to
use the arms of the chair and should never place his or her arms around the nurse's
neck; this places undue stress on the nurse's neck and back and increases the risk for
a fall.
How many mL will the nurse document on the client's intake and output record from the
items listed? mL
1200 mL water
4 ounce container of gelatin
8 ounces of orange juice
355 mL can of soda1 cup of soup - ANSWER//Answer: 2155
Rationale: 1200 + 240 (8 oz) + 240 (1 cup) + 120 (4 oz) + 355 = 2155
The nurse observes a UAP taking a client's blood pressure in the lower extremity.
Which observation of this procedure requires the nurse to intervene with the UAP's
approach?
A.
The cuff wraps around the girth of the leg.
B.
The UAP auscultates the popliteal pulse with the cuff on the lower leg.
C.
The client is placed in a prone position.
D.
The systolic reading is 20 mm Hg higher than the blood pressure in the client's arm. -
ANSWER//B
Rationale: When obtaining the blood pressure in the lower extremities, the popliteal
pulse is the site for auscultation when the blood pressure cuff is applied around the
thigh. The nurse should intervene with the UAP who has applied the cuff on the lower
leg. Option A ensures an accurate assessment, and option C provides the best access
to the artery. Systolic pressure in the popliteal artery is usually 10 to 40 mm Hg higher
than in the brachial artery.
During a clinic visit, the mother of a 7-year-old reports to the nurse that her child is often
