A nurse is monitoring a client's IV site. The nurse should report which of the following findings as manifestations of phlebitis? (Select all that apply.)

A. IV solutions and administration sets should typically be changed every 48 to 72 hours to reduce the risk of contamination and infection. This interval helps prevent the buildup of bacteria in the solution and tubing, which could lead to bloodstream infections (BSIs).

B. Checking the client's IV site every is also important for monitoring for signs of infection, infiltration, or phlebitis. However, every 8 hours is too frequent and unnecessary

C. IV tubing should be changed every 72 hours not every 96 hours. Prolonging the use of IV tubing beyond this timeframe increases the risk of bacterial contamination and infection.

D. Transparent dressings are usually changed every 5 to 7 days, or sooner if they become soiled or compromised.

A. Pantoprazole belongs to a class of medications called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which work by reducing the production of gastric acid in the stomach. This helps in treating conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and heartburn effectively.

B. Pantoprazole is not known to cause hyperkalemia. Hyperkalemia is a condition characterized by high levels of potassium in the blood, and it is typically associated with certain medications (e.g., potassium- sparing diuretics) or medical conditions affecting kidney function. Pantoprazole's primary side effects relate to its effects on gastric acid production and absorption of certain nutrients.

C. While pantoprazole is usually taken once daily, the timing of administration is typically in the morning, before a meal. This helps to maximize its effectiveness in reducing gastric acid secretion when the stomach acid production is at its highest.

D. Pantoprazole should be taken on an empty stomach, at least 30 minutes before a meal. This timing allows the medication to be absorbed properly and work effectively to reduce gastric acid production.
