RN VATI Fundamentals 2019 Assessment1. A nurse is preparing to mix short-acting and intermediate-acting insulin
in one syringe to administer to a client who has type 1 diabetes mellitus.
Identify the sequence the nurse should follow.: Answer- 1: Draw up the
volume of insulin from the intermediate-acting insulin vial.
2: Inject the volume of air equal to the amount of insulin to
withdraw from the intermediate-acting insulin vial.
3: Inject the volume of air equal to the insulin dose form the short-
acting insulin vial 4: Withdraw the prescribed amount of insulin form
the short-acting insulin vial.
5: Withdraw the prescribed amount of insulin form the intermediate-
acting insulin vial.
To mix insulin from two vials in the same syringe, the nurse should
first draw up a volume of air equal to the volume of insulin from the
intermediate-acting insulin vial. The nurse should then inject the
volume of air equal to the amount of insulin to withdraw from the
intermediate-acting insulin vial, making sure the needle does not
touch the insulin. Next, the nurse should inject the volume of air equal
to the insulin dose from the short-acting insulin vial. Then, the nurse
should withdraw the prescribed amount of insulin from the short-
acting insulin vial. Lastly, the nurse should withdraw the prescribed
,amount of insulin from the intermediate-acting insulin vial. The insulins
are now mixed and ready to administer.
2. A nurse is assessing a client who wears partial dentures and reports
mouth pain. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?:
Answer - Advise the client to rinse their mouth and dentures after
each meal.
The nurse should advise the client to rinse their mouth and dentures
after each meal to remove food and particles and to promote healing
of gums and oral mucosa.
3. A nurse is planning care for a client who has dysphagia and is at risk
for aspiration. Which of the following referrals should the nurse make?:
- Answer - Speech-language pathologist
The nurse should recommend a referral for a client who has dysphagia
to a speech-language pathologist. Clients who have dysphagia have
difficulty swallow- ing and are at risk for aspiration. The speech-
language pathologist can perform a swallow study to determine the
extent of the client's dysphagia and work with the client to develop
new swallowing techniques.
, 4. A nurse is planning teaching for a client who has a new diagnosis of
type 2 diabetes mellitus. Which of the following actions should the nurse
take prior to performing the teaching? (select all that apply): Answer -
Establish the client's learning needs
- Determine the client's literacy level
- Evaluate the client's readiness for learning
- Identify the client's learning style
Establish the client's learning needs is correct. Prior to planning any
teaching session, the nurse should perform a comprehensive
assessment of the client's learning needs. This assessment
incorporates information from the client's history and physical
assessment, current health problems, understanding of and adher-
ence to the prescribed treatment plan, and support system. Determine
the client's literacy level is correct. Knowing the client's literacy level is
an important factor
in communicating with the client and in delivering audiovisual
presentations and written materials. If the client cannot understand
the information the nurse pre- sents, they will not learn. Evaluate the
client's readiness for learning is correct. The nurse should determine
the client's physical readiness (pain control), emotional readiness
(acceptance of diagnosis), and cognitive readiness (appropriate level
of consciousness). Identify the client's learning style is correct. The
