A nurse is caring for a client who has respiratory depression following
opioid administration to control cancer-related pain. The client's ABG
results are pH 7.28, PaCO2 49 mm Hg, and HCO3- 24 mEq/L. Based on
these findings, the nurse should identify that the client has which of the
following acid-base imbalances?
With this acid-base imbalance, the client's pH is below the expected
reference range, the PaCO2 is above the expected reference range,
and the HCO3- is within or possibly above the expected reference
range. Common causes of respiratory acidosis are respiratory
depression due to anesthesia or opioid administration, airway
obstruction, and inadequate chest expansion.
A nurse has arrived at the site of an accident where a client has sustained
a traumatic amputation of the big toe. Identify the sequence of steps the
nurse should take to treat the musculoskeletal trauma. (Move the steps into
the box on the right, placing them in the order of performance. Use all the
steps.) - ANSWER-The nurse should first call 911 and examine the
amputation site. Next, the nurse should apply direct pressure with layers of
dry cloth to slow or stop the bleeding. Then, the nurse should elevate the
affected extremity above the client's heart to slow the bleeding. Next, the
nurse should find the toe and wrap it in sterile gauze or a clean cloth to
decrease contamination for possible surgical reattachment. Finally, the
nurse should place the wrapped toe in a bag and place the bag in 1 part ice
and 3 parts water to maintain tissue integrity for possible reattachment.
A nurse is assessing a client who has been taking antacids frequently for
gastrointestinal distress. The assessment findings include drowsiness,
muscle weakness, bradycardia, and hypotension. Which of the following
electrolyte imbalances should the nurse suspect?
,3|Page
Hypophosphatemia
Hypochloremia
Hypermagnesemia
Hypernatremia - ANSWER-Hypermagnesemia
The nurse should identify that frequent ingestion of antacids and
laxatives that contain magnesium can cause hypermagnesemia.
Manifestations include hypotension, bradycardia, absent deep tendon
reflexes, weak skeletal muscle contractions, ECG changes, lethargy,
and drowsiness that can progress to coma.
A nurse in a provider's office is completing a preoperative screening for a
client who is scheduled for a knee arthroplasty later that week. Which of the
following findings requires the nurse's intervention? (Click on the exhibit
button for additional information about the client. There are three tabs that
contain separate categories of data.) - ANSWER-Coagulation time
The nurse should report the client's coagulation time, or INR, to the
provider immediately because it is above the expected reference
range, which predisposes the client to intraoperative and/or
postoperative hemorrhage. The nurse should expect the provider to

postpone the joint arthroplasty until the client's clotting time is within
the expected reference range.
A nurse in an emergency department is caring for a client whose ABG
results are pH 7.31, PaCO2 50 mm Hg, and HCO3- 25 mEq/L after
experiencing an airway obstruction. Which of the following interventions is
the nurse's priority for this client?
Apply oxygen therapy to the client.
Administer an anti-inflammatory medication.
Check the client's nail beds.
Initiate IV fluid therapy. - ANSWER-Apply oxygen therapy to the client.
The first action the nurse should take when using the airway,
breathing, circulation approach to caring for a client who has
respiratory acidosis is to improve the client's oxygenation. When the
client's airway is patent, oxygenation and ventilation are the priorities.
