A nurse is educating the client about the baclofen. Which of the following responses is a therapeutic use of baclofen?

A. This is not the correct action because the issue with misoprostol in pregnancy is not related to the route of administration, but rather its potential to cause uterine contractions and harm to the pregnancy. The nurse should not administer the medication at all, regardless of the route, and should notify the physician for further clarification.
B. Misoprostol is contraindicated in pregnancy because it can cause uterine contractions, which may result in a miscarriage or preterm labor. The nurse should not administer this medication and must inform the healthcare provider to reconsider the prescription or explore alternative options to prevent stomach ulcers in pregnant clients.
C. Administering misoprostol to a pregnant client is dangerous, as it can stimulate uterine contractions and threaten the pregnancy. Monitoring for adverse reactions would not be an appropriate course of action, as the medication should not be given to begin with.
D. Even though verifying the patient's identity is always an important step, the main concern here is that misoprostol is contraindicated during pregnancy. The nurse should not administer this medication and must first clarify with the healthcare provider if it is suitable for the pregnant patient.

A. Inhaling and exhaling quickly through pursed lips does not achieve the intended purpose of pursed-lip breathing. This technique is designed to promote slower, controlled breathing to prevent airway collapse and improve oxygen exchange.

B. Exhaling quickly through pursed lips negates the benefits of pursed-lip breathing. The purpose of this technique is to prolong exhalation, reducing air trapping and improving ventilation.

C. Inhaling deeply through the nose and exhaling slowly through pursed lips is the correct technique for pursed-lip breathing. This method helps maintain open airways, reduces dyspnea, and promotes relaxation.

D. Inhaling deeply through pursed lips and exhaling quickly through the nose is not consistent with proper pursed-lip breathing. The inhalation should be through the nose, and exhalation should be slow and controlled through pursed lips.
