ATI Nutrition Proctored Exam 2019

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: One scrambled egg is equivalent to 1 oz of protein, making it a suitable choice for a toddler's diet. A � cup of peas (choice B) does not provide 1 oz of protein but is still a good source of protein. 2 tbsp of peanut butter (choice A) contains more than 1 oz of protein. 1 slice of bread (choice C) typically provides less protein than 1 oz.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Flushing the client's tube with 30 mL of water every 4 hours is essential to maintain tube patency and prevent blockages. This action helps ensure the continuous flow of enteral feedings without obstruction. Measuring the client's gastric residual every 12 hours (Choice A) is important but not the priority when initiating enteral feedings. Obtaining the client's electrolyte levels every 4 hours (Choice B) is unnecessary and not directly related to tube feeding initiation. Keeping the client's head elevated at 15� during feedings (Choice C) is a good practice to prevent aspiration, but tube flushing is more crucial to prevent tube occlusion.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To calculate the grams of fat, first, determine the calories from fat by multiplying the total calorie intake (1500 calories) by the percentage of calories from fat (30%), which equals 450 calories from fat. Since 1 gram of fat is equivalent to 9 calories, divide the total calories from fat (450) by the calories in 1 gram of fat (9) to get the answer in grams, which is 50. Therefore, the client should consume 50 grams of fat per day. Choice A (21), Choice B (49), and Choice C (60) are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate calculation based on the given information.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: During Ramadan, individuals fast from dawn to sunset. Facilitating fasting during daylight hours respects the dietary practices of clients observing Ramadan. Choice A is incorrect as the dietary restriction during Ramadan involves abstaining from all food and drink during daylight hours, not just beef products. Choice C is incorrect as Muslims generally do not consume meat and dairy together due to religious dietary laws. Choice D is incorrect as providing a low-carb diet on Fridays does not specifically align with the dietary restrictions observed during Ramadan.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Measuring the stomach aspirate prior to the feeding is crucial to ensure the correct placement and function of the nasogastric tube. This step helps prevent complications such as aspiration or improper feeding. Choice A is incorrect as stabilizing the tube with tape to the newborn's cheek can cause discomfort and skin irritation. Choice B is incorrect because removing supplemental oxygen during the feeding may compromise the newborn's respiratory status. Choice D is incorrect because placing the newborn on their left side for 30 minutes after the feeding is not a standard practice and is unnecessary for administering gavage feeding.
