Correct answer: B. Ask mother to breastfeed the newborn. A blood glucose of 45mg/dL is at target level for a newborn. Good breastfeeding can help the newborn can help maintain the newborn’s blood sugar level. A newborn would be given oral dextrose at glucose levels below 45. The mother has no significant medical history, so the nurse does not need to determine whether the mother had gestational diabetes.

b. G: 6, T:4, P: 0, A: 0, L: 4

c. G: 5, T:3, P:1, A:1, L:4

d. G: 6, T:3, P: 1, A: 1, L: 4

What is Home Alone

The mother had her children who are 2, 4, and 7 at 39 and 40 weeks which is considered term so that would be 3 for term. One of her children was born preterm at 36 weeks. She currently has 4 living children and is pregnant at 25 weeks. Therefore, there is one left over which means she also had one abortion.

2) A nurse is caring for a patient who has a PEG tube in place. The patient has Q6 scheduled feedings and is due for one now. The patient just received medications via PEG tube 15 mins ago. What is the priority action the nurse should take?

a. Administer the tube feeding at the scheduled time.

b. Call the physician to schedule a new feeding time.

c. Wait 15 mins and document the reason for late tube feeding.

d. Wait until the next scheduled tube feeding in 6 hours.

What is Frosty the Snowman

Answer

2) C. wait 15 mins and document the reason for the late feeding. When administering medications prior to a tube feeding, the tube feeding must be held for a total of 30 mins after medication administration before a feeding can begin. The nurse should not administer the tube feeding before the 30 min time frame, the physician does not need to be called, and the feeding should not be pushed back until the next scheduled time. It is important for the nurse to document the reason for the late feeding.

2. A nurse is completing an assessment on a newborn baby. When the nurse unwraps the newborn and returns the newborn to the crib, the nurse notices the newborn’s fingers fan out along with the arms and legs moving in jerking motion with abduction and extension. What is an appropriate action by the nurse?

a. Re-swaddle newborn and complete assessment at a later time

b. Contact provider and report seizure activity

c. Document a normal reflex in the newborn’s health record

d. Obtain a temperature reading to rule out newborn shivering from feeling cold

What is a tree with fake snow called

Correct answer: C. Document normal reflex. This is the startle reflex that we assess for when lifting the newborn up slightly. Seizures in a newborn often include staring, loss of consciousness, stiffening of the body, and respiratory problems. Newborn’s do not have the ability to shiver, so obtaining a temperature would be inappropriate. There is also no need to re-swaddle and delay the assessment at this time.

3. A nurse is performing a postpartum assessment on a patient when they find a uterus that feels soft and boggy. Which of the following nursing interventions would be the most appropriate to do right away?

a. Elevate the mothers head of bed

b. Encourage the mother to void

c. Push on the uterus to assist in expressing clots

d. Massage the fundus until it is firm

What is How the Grinch Stole Christmas

Rationale: If the uterus is not firm upon assessment the first intervention is to massage the fundus until it is firm so that any clots that may be in the uterus will come out. This is to decrease the risk of hemorrhage. Elevating the head of the bed and encouraging the mother to void would not do anything for the clots that could be in her uterus and will not help with uterine atony.

3. The physician prescribes penicillin potassium oral suspension 5 mg/kg/day in four divided doses for a client with anorexia nervosa who weighs 40kg. The medication dispensed by the pharmacy contains a dosage strength of 5mg/5 ml. How many milliliters of solution should the nurse administer with each dose?

What were the first Christmas trees made from

Correct Answer: 50mL


To determine the total daily dosage, set up the following proportion:

30 kg/X = 1 kg/5 mg

X = 200 mg.

Next, divide the daily dosage by four doses to determine the dose to administer every 6 hours:

X = 200 mg/4 doses

X = 50 mg/dose.

The adolescent should receive 50 mg every 6 hours.

Lastly, calculate the volume to give for each dose

50mg/X=5mL/5m

4. A patient is receiving labetalol and is wondering why they are receiving the medication. What would be the best explanation to the client why they are receiving this medication?

a. “This medication cures your preeclampsia.”

b. “Labetalol helps your baby with lung maturation after pre-term birth.”

c. “Labetalol is a beta-blocker that affects the heart and circulation and treats hypertension.”

d. “This medication will prevent you from developing a blood clot.”

What is The Santa Clause

Rationale: The answer is that labetalol is a beta-blocker that helps lower the patients blood pressure and treats hypertension. This medication will not “cure” pre-eclampsia, but it can treat it. Labetalol is not used for fetal lung maturation after pre-term birth that is betamethasone (celestone). And this medication cannot prevent you from developing a blood clot that would be an anticoagulant not a beta-blocker.

a. Administer diphenhydramine 30 minutes before transfusing

What kind of Christmas did Bing Crosby dream of

Correct answer: D. important to identify if the correct bag of blood for the client receiving it because the blood is crossmatch by the blood bank to match the clients blood type to help prevent reactions. The purpose of the crossmatch is to detect the presence of antibodies in the recipient against the red blood cells of the donor. These antibodies attach to the red blood cells of the donor after transfusion. If the blood isn’t the right one for this client, then the antibodies of the blood could attack those of the client. Proper identification of donor blood and client is important in preventing incompatibility.

A nurse is deciding on delegation assignments on the unit. Which assignment should an LPN be assigned?

-Admit a patient to the unit

-executing a nursing care plan

-Taking vital signs on a stable patient

-Administering blood products to a patient

What is Frosty the Snowman

Answer: 

Only registered nurses can admit patients and administer blood products. LPNs can take vital signs on a stable patient, however, this will be a better assignment for a CNA. It would be the most appropriate to assign the LPN to execute or follow a nursing care plan already created by a registered nurse.

A newborn baby in the Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/Gyn) unit is experiencing hyperbilirubinemia. Which of the following interventions treat hyperbilirubinemia? Select all that apply.

a. Phototherapy

b. Penicillin G

c. Breastfeeding

d. Fiberoptic blanket

e. Ferrous Sulfate

Angels We Have Heard On High

Answers

● (a) Phototherapy= Bilirubin levels tend to decrease when exposed to blue spectrum light due to bilirubin’s ability to absorb light. Phototherapy turns bilirubin into water-soluble isomers that are excreted by the liver.

● (c) Breastfeeding= Breastfeeding provides adequate hydration and caloric intake for the newborn. Receiving frequent and effective breastfeeding can help the baby’s body eliminate bilirubin.

● (d) Fiberoptic blanket= Is another form of phototherapy, but in a blanket form. The fiberoptic blanket contains the same blue light used for phototherapy. It is known for allowing phototherapy use at home due to its portable illuminator.

d. Fluid intake/output

e. Deep tendon reflexes

What is I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus

Correct answers:

● (c) Vitals= Monitor vitals especially close attention to oxygen saturation and respiratory pattern. Respirations less than 12/minute, shortness of breath, or respiratory arrest are signs of magnesium toxicity. Watch out for drops in pulse or blood pressure because it also indicates another sign of magnesium toxicity.

● (d) Fluid input/output= Urinary output less than 30 ml/hour is a sign of magnesium toxicity.

● (e) Deep tendon reflexes= One of the first signs of magnesium toxicity is the loss of tendon reflexes.

b. A patient who is complaining of shortness of breath and chest pain

Rationale: You would see this person first because of the ABC’s. You are concerned about the patients breathing in this situation.
