3. What is the priority action I a patient with a tracheostomy begins coughing and choking when

4. Review the steps for suctioning a tracheostomy. View the ATI Skills video.
a. A student is practicing suctioning a tracheostomy in the skills laboratory. What action by
the student demonstrates that more teaching is needed?
a. Applying suction while inserting the catheter
5. Re: Unlicensed Assistive Personnel (UAP) can only perform and assist general ADLs for

and nares. The UAP would not adjust the oxygen flow rate or remove the tubing. Turning the
patient is not related to comfort measures for oxygen.
a. An unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) was feeding a client with a tracheostomy. Later

nurse delegate to unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP)? Apply water-soluble ointment
to nares and lips.
6. A patient is wearing a venturi mask to deliver oxygen and the dinner tray has arrived. What action

b. A nurse cares for a client who is scheduled for a total laryngectomy. Which action should

10. Modafinil (Provigil) is prescribed for your patient who has sleep apnea. Why is this medication
prescribed?
a. A nurse is caring for a client who has sleep apnea and is prescribed modafinil (Provigil).
The client asks, How will this medication help me? How should the nurse respond? This

11. When a patient needs a humidifier it is imperative for the nurse to explain that the machine must
be cleaned frequently to prevent infection?
a. A nurse teaches a client to use a room humidifier after a laryngectomy. Which statement
should the nurse include in this clients teaching? Make sure you clean the humidifier to
prevent infection
12. From several patients, select the patient that need to be seen first. Refer to priority setting.
a. A nurse assesses clients on the medical-surgical unit. Which client is at greatest risk for
development of obstructive sleep apnea? A 55-year-old woman who is 50 pounds
overweight
13. Your patient has developed esophagitis after undergoing radiation therapy for lung cancer. Select
the most appropriate dinner for him/her. bland, soft, high-calorie foods are best, along with liquid

a. A nurse cares for a client who has developed esophagitis after undergoing radiation
therapy for lung cancer. Which diet selection should the nurse provide for this client?

or reverse symptoms. Salmeterol has a slow onset of action; therefore, it would not be used as a
rescue dr ug. The drug must be shaken well because it has a tendency
to separate easily. Salmeterol is a long-acting β2 adrenergic receptor
agonist (LABA) used in the maintenance and prevention of asthma
symptoms and maintenance of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD) symptoms.
a. After teaching a client who is prescribed salmeterol
(Serevent), the nurse assesses the clients understanding. Which statement by the client
