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? -
CORRECT ANSWERS 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.
Which of the following statements by a guardian indicate that the discharge teaching was
effective?
Select all that apply - CORRECT ANSWERS "We should apply a skin emollient
immediately after bathing our child" is correct. An emollient is an oil that moisturizes the skin and
should be applied immediately after bathing, while the skin is damp, to prevent drying. Therefore
this statement by the guardian indicates the teaching has been effective.
"We should keep our child's fingernails trimmed short" is correct. The child's fingernails and
toenails should be kept short, trimmed, and filed to prevent scratching with sharp edges.

how your child is responding to therapy."
The nurse should inform the parent that their child will need pulmonary function tests every 12
to 24 months to evaluate the presence of lung disease and how the child is responding to the
current treatment regimen. As children grow, sometimes their manifestations can improve or
decline, and treatment needs to change accordingly.
A nurse is monitoring oxygen saturation of an infant using pulse oximetry. The nurse should
secure the sensor to which of the following areas on the infant? - CORRECT ANSWERS
Great Toe
The nurse should secure the sensor to the great toe of the infant and then place a snug-fitting
sock on the foot to hold the sensor in place. The nurse should also check the skin under the
sensor site frequently for temperature, color, and the presence of a pulse.
After reviewing the information in the child's medical record, which of the following findings
should the nurse report to the provider?
Select the 4 findings that the nurse should report to the provider. - CORRECT ANSWERS
Arterial blood gases is correct. The child's arterial blood gases (ABGs) indicate respiratory
alkalosis, which is associated with complications of asthma, such as hyperventilation and
hypoxia. Therefore, the nurse should report these findings to the provider.
WBC count is correct. The child's WBC count is above the expected reference range, which
could be an indication of infection or inflammation. Therefore, the nurse should report this
finding to the provider.
Oxygen saturation level is correct. The child's oxygen saturation level has decreased below the
expected reference range despite the use of supplemental oxygen. Therefore, the nurse should
report this finding to the provider.
Respiratory assessment is correct. The child's respiratory assessment indicates increased
respiratory distress, as evidenced by the presence of tachypnea, retractions, and increased
wheezing. Therefore, the nurse should report these findings to the provider.
