A nurse is caring for a toddler.
Nurses' Notes
0900:
Toddler brought to the provider's office today for report of a cough that won't go
away and recurring respiratory infections. Guardian states toddler has been
coughing the past several weeks with wheezing starting overnight. S1 and S2
auscultated, no murmur noted. Respirations labored; rhonchi auscultated. Nasal
congestion noted. Child is lethargic and irritable. Guardian states the toddler is
"often sweaty, and when I kiss them, it tastes salty." States the child has been
eating well prior to today but won't gain weight. Loose, fatty stool in diaper. Vital
signs and labs obtained.
Vital Signs
0900:
Temperature 37.4° C (99.3° F)
Heart rate 150/min
Respiratory rate 40/min
Blood pressure 82/42 mmHg
Oxygen saturation 92% on room air
Laboratory Results
1200:
, Sodium 128 mEq/L (136 to 145 mEq/L)
Potential Condition:
Otitis media
Actions to Take:
Educate guardian about sweat chloride testing
Prepare toddler for chest physiotherapy.
Parameters to Monitor:
Oxygen saturation level
Stools
Upon recognizing and analyzing client findings, the nurse's priority hypothesis is that the
toddler is most likely experiencing cystic fibrosis and that is it important to generate
solutions and take actions by planning to educate the guardian about sweat chloride
testing for the toddler and prepare the toddler for chest physiotherapy. The toddler is
most likely experiencing cystic fibrosis, as evidenced by reports of recurring respiratory
infections, wheezing, coughing, tachypnea, tachycardia, labored respirations,
decreased oxygen saturation, nasal congestion, inability to gain weight, loose fatty
stool, salty tasting sweat, and hyponatremia. To evaluate the toddler's response to
these interventions, the nurse should monitor the toddler's oxygen saturation level and
stools. These are parameters that indicate if the toddler is further experiencing
respiratory distress, inadequate intake, and dehydration, which can lead to further
complications, including pneumothorax, respiratory failure, and failure to thrive.
A nurse is caring for a school-age child who is receiving Cefazolin via intermittent
IV bolus. The child suddenly develops diffuse flushing of the skin and
angioedema. After discontinuing the medication infusion, which of the following
medications should the nurse administer first?
A) Prednisone
B) Epinephrine
C) Diphenhydramine
D) Albuterol
B) Epinephrine
This child is most likely experiencing an anaphylactic reaction to the cefazolin.
According to evidence-based practice, the nurse should first administer epinephrine to
treat the anaphylaxis. Epinephrine is a beta-adrenergic agonist that stimulates the heart,
causes vasoconstriction of blood vessels in the skin and mucous membranes, and
triggers bronchodilation in the lungs.
A nurse in a provider's office is caring for a preschooler. Which of the following
statements by a guardian indicate that the discharge teaching was effective?
