A client is currently receiving an infusion labeled Heparin Sodium 25,000 Units in 5% Dextrose Injection 500 mL at 14 ml/hour. A prescription is received to change the rate of the Infusion to 900 units of heparin per hour. The nurse should set the infusion pump to deliver how many mL/hour? (Enter numeric value only.)

A. Instruct the family about withdrawal symptoms. While educating the family about withdrawal symptoms is important for support and understanding, it is not the best initial action when the
client is experiencing severe agitation and tremors. Safety measures should be prioritized.

B. Initiate seizure precautions. Severe agitation and tremors can be signs of benzodiazepine withdrawal, which may progress to seizures. Initiating seizure precautions, such as ensuring a
safe environment, padding side rails, and having emergency medications and equipment readily available, is the priority to prevent injury.
C. Obtain a serum drug screen. While obtaining a serum drug screen may be necessary to confirm benzodiazepine withdrawal, it is not the immediate action needed to address the client's current symptoms and prevent potential harm.
D. Administer naloxone per PRN protocol. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist used to reverse opioid overdose and is not indicated for benzodiazepine withdrawal. Administering naloxone would not be appropriate or effective in this situation.

A. These laboratory values will provide data to anticipate delays in growth and development.
While abnormal results from these tests could indicate potential developmental issues, the primary purpose of the screening is not to predict delays in growth and development but to identify metabolic deficiencies.

B. This is a routine blood test required by law to screen for metabolic deficiencies.
This is the correct answer. Neonatal screening, including tests for T4 and TSH, is a standard practice mandated by law in many regions to identify metabolic deficiencies such as congenital hypothyroidism early on, ensuring prompt treatment to prevent serious health issues.

C. Dosages for thyroid replacement therapy will be determined by this test.
This explanation might be applicable if a deficiency is detected, but it is not the primary reason for conducting the initial screening. The primary purpose is to identify whether there is a need for treatment.

D. This technique is used for early detection of intellectual disabilities.
Although untreated metabolic deficiencies like congenital hypothyroidism can lead to intellectual disabilities, the primary goal of the screening is to detect and treat these deficiencies before they can cause such problems.
