LPN Fundamentals of Nursing Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
A client is receiving continuous enteral feedings. Which of the following interventions should the nurse implement?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Flushing the feeding tube every 4 hours is essential to maintain patency and prevent clogging, ensuring the client receives the prescribed enteral nutrition without interruption. Monitoring intake and output, measuring temperature, and changing the feeding bag and tubing are also important aspects of care but not directly related to maintaining the patency of the feeding tube in a client receiving continuous enteral feedings.
Question 2 of 5
A client is being assessed for dehydration. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Dark-colored urine is a common sign of dehydration as the urine becomes concentrated. Dehydration leads to reduced fluid intake or excessive fluid loss, causing the urine to be darker in color due to increased urine concentration.
Question 3 of 5
A client receives discharge teaching on a new prescription for lisinopril. Which of the following instructions should be included?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Lisinopril, an ACE inhibitor, can lead to hyperkalemia by reducing potassium excretion. Therefore, clients taking lisinopril should be advised to avoid foods high in potassium to prevent potential complications associated with elevated potassium levels.
Question 4 of 5
When teaching a client with a new diagnosis of diabetes mellitus about foot care, which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Inspecting the feet daily is crucial for clients with diabetes mellitus to detect early signs of injury or infection promptly. This practice helps prevent serious complications such as diabetic foot ulcers. Soaking feet in hot water daily can lead to skin dryness and increase the risk of injury. Applying lotion between toes can cause moisture buildup, leading to fungal infections. Using over-the-counter products to remove corns can result in skin damage and should be done under healthcare provider supervision.
Question 5 of 5
A client has a new prescription for a metered-dose inhaler (MDI). Which of the following statements indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Shaking the inhaler before use is crucial to ensure proper mixing of the medication inside the inhaler. This action helps to disperse the medication evenly, allowing for consistent dosing during inhalation. Breathing out forcefully, taking the medication with food, and using a spacer are not related to the correct use of a metered-dose inhaler and may not lead to optimal medication delivery.
