1. During an intravenous (IV) infusion of amphotericin B, a patient develops
| | | | | | | | | |



tinglingand numbnessin his toes and fingers. What will the nurse do first?
| | | | | | | | | | | | |



a. Discontinue the infusion immediately. | | |



b. Reduce the infusion rate gradually until the adverse | | | | | | |



effectssubside.
| |



c. Administer the medication by rapid IV infusion to | | | | | | |



reducethese effects.
| | |



d. Nothing; these are expected side effects of this medication. | | | | | | | |




ANS: A |



Once the intravenous infusion of amphotericin B has begun, vital signs must be
| | | | | | | | | | | |



| monitored frequently to assess for adverse reactions such as cardiac
| | | | | | | | |



dysrhythmias,visual disturbances, paresthesias (numbness or tingling of the hands
| | | | | | | | | |



or feet), respiratory difficulty, pain, fever, chills,and nausea. If these adverse effects
| | | | | | | | | | | |



or a severe reaction occur, the infusion must be discontinued(while the patient is
| | | | | | | | | | | | |



closely monitored) and the prescriber contacted. The other options are incorrect.

The nurse is writing a nursing diagnosis for a plan of care for a patient who has
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |




?

,been newlydiagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Which statement reflects
| | | | | | | | |



thecorrect format for a nursing diagnosis?
| | | | | | |



a. Anxiety
b. Anxiety related to new drug therapy | | | | |



c. Anxiety related to anxious feelings about drug therapy, as evidenced
| | | | | | | | |



| bystatements
|



such as “I’m upset about having to test my blood sugars.”
| | | | | | | | | |



d. Anxiety related to new drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such
| | | | | | | | | |



| as“I’m
|



upset about having to test my blood sugars.”
| | | | | | |




ANS: D |



Formulation of nursing diagnoses is usually a three-step process. “Anxiety” ismissing
| | | | | | | | | | |



the
|



“related to” and “as evidenced by” portions of defining characteristics. “Anxiety
| | | | | | | | | |



related to new drug therapy” is missing the “as evidenced by” portion of
| | | | | | | | | | | | |



definingcharacteristics. The statementbeginning “Anxiety related to anxious
| | | | | | | |



feelings” is incorrect because the “related to” section is simply a restatement of the
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



problem “anxiety,” not a separate factor related to the response.

2. The patient is to receive oral guaifenesin (Mucinex) twice a day. Today, the
| | | | | | | | | | | |



nurse was busy andgave the medication 2 hours after the scheduled dose was due.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



Whattype of problem does this represent?
| | | | | | |



a. “Right time” |



b. “Right dose” |



c. “Right route” |



d. “Right
medication”

ANS: A |



“Right time” is correct because the medication was given more than 30
| | | | | | | | | | |



| minutes after the scheduled dose was due. “Dose” is incorrect because
| | | | | | | | | |



thedose is not related to the time the
| | | | | | | | |



medication administration is scheduled. “Route” is incorrect because the routeis
| | | | | | | | | |



not affected.“Medication” is incorrect because the medication ordered will not
| | | | | | | | | |



change.
