ATI Comprehensive Predictor PN

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Correct answer: Administering antibiotics and providing oxygen therapy are essential in managing pneumonia. Antibiotics help treat the infection caused by bacteria, while oxygen therapy improves lung function. Choice B is incorrect because bronchodilators may not be the primary treatment for pneumonia. Choice C is not the priority in pneumonia management, although fluids and rest are important for recovery. Choice D is also not a primary intervention in pneumonia management.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because prolonged use of corticosteroids is a known risk factor for infections. Choice A is incorrect because frequent hand washing actually helps prevent infections. Choice C is incorrect as patient interaction is essential in healthcare but should be done following proper infection control measures. Choice D is also incorrect as restricting client movement is not a standard practice to prevent contamination.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Use pursed-lip breathing during physical activity.' Pursed-lip breathing is a beneficial technique for clients with COPD as it helps improve airflow by keeping the airways open longer. Choice A is incorrect as abdominal breathing may not be as effective in COPD as pursed-lip breathing. Choice B, inhaling quickly and deeply through the nose, is not recommended as it can lead to hyperventilation. Choice D, breathing quickly and deeply during exercise, is also not suitable for clients with COPD as it can cause increased shortness of breath.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Low birth weight increases a child's vulnerability to physical maltreatment due to additional care needs. Advanced maternal age (choice B) is not directly linked to an increased risk of physical maltreatment. Single parenthood (choice C) is not a characteristic that inherently increases the risk of physical maltreatment. Premature birth (choice D) is not listed as a characteristic that directly increases a child's risk of physical maltreatment.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The client's current level of mobility is essential to be included in the transfer report for the rehabilitation facility to develop an appropriate care plan. Understanding the client's mobility status helps in determining the level of assistance and interventions needed to prevent falls and promote safe rehabilitation. Choices A, B, and C are not directly related to the client's immediate care needs during the transfer to the rehabilitation facility, making them less relevant for the transfer report.
