Rationale:
Visualization of a cobweb- or hairnet-type structure is a sign of a retinal detachment, which

constitutes a medical emergency. Clients with cataracts are at increased risk for retinal
x x x x x x x x x x x x x


detachment. Distorted color perception, opacity of the lens, and gradual vision loss are expected
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


signs and symptoms of cataracts but do not need immediate attention.
x x x x x x x x x x x




2. When caring for a client hospitalized with Guillain-Barré syndrome, which
x x x x x x x x x


x informationis most important for the nurse to report to the primary health care provider?

x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


needto assist the client with mechanical ventilation. A primary health care provider will need
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


to becontacted immediately. Options A, C, and D are findings associated with Guillain-Barré
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


supportive for the client?
x x x x

, a. "Tell me about what you are feeling right now."
x x x x x x x x x




Rationale:
The most therapeutic action for the nurse is to be an active listener and to encourage the client to

explore her feelings. Giving false reassurance or personal suggestions are not therapeutic
x x x x x x x x x x x x


communication for the client.

x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


establishingan airway.

x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


primary health care provider. Digitalis should be held when the heart rate is lower than 60
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


beats/min. The client with heart failure should weigh himself or herself daily and report a gain
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
