administration of the medication. Which of the following is the first action the nurse
should take?
A. Administer epinephrine (Adrenaline).
B. Elevate the lower extremities.
C. Determine respiratory status.
D. Apply oxygen via non-rebreather mask. - answerC. Determine respiratory status.
*The content of this question emphasizes the concept of priority setting by determining
priority nursing action for a client experiencing an allergic reaction. Priority setting is the
use of nursing judgment when making decisions about the rank order in which to take
nursing actions. Various priority setting frameworks, such as Maslow's Hierarchy of
Needs, nursing process, ABC, and safety and risk reduction, can be useful in
determining the priority of needed actions. This item can be answered using both
nursing process and the ABC priority setting framework. The client is experiencing
angioedema, indicating the possibility of an anaphylactic reaction, which is life-
threatening; therefore, the nurse should first determine the client's respiratory status.
A nurse is caring for a child who is 24 hr postoperative following a supratentorial
craniotomy. The nurse should maintain the child in which of the following positions?
A. Prone with head of the bed flat
B. Dorsal recumbent with head of the bed elevated to 15°
C. Supine with head of the bed elevated to 30°
D. Side-lying with head of the bed elevated to 45°. - answerC. Supine with head of the
bed elevated to 30°
*The content of this question emphasizes the concept of safety through selection of the
appropriate position for a child who is postoperative following a supratentorial
craniotomy. Safety in nursing practice is the minimization of risk factors that could cause
injury or harm while promoting quality care and maintaining a secure environment for
clients, self, and others. Through the provision of client-centered care and incorporation
of evidence-based practice, nurses are able to assist in achieving this goal by
preventing or minimizing physical injury. Following a supratentorial craniotomy, the
client should be maintained in a position that facilitates drainage of cerebrospinal fluid
and prevents hemorrhage by reducing blood flow to the brain. Positioning the client
supine with the head of the bed elevated to 30° is appropriate.
