A nurse is preparing to administer ibuprofen solution 60 mg orally to a 7-month-old infant who is febrile. Available is ibuprofen 50 mg/1.25 mL. How many should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

A. Measure the client's abdominal girth daily is correct. Ascites is characterized by fluid accumulation in the abdomen. Measuring abdominal girth regularly is important for monitoring changes in the amount of fluid retention and for assessing the progression of ascites. It is a standard nursing intervention for clients with this condition.

B. Keep the client's daily protein intake below 0.8 g/kg is incorrect. Protein intake should not be restricted to this extent. In fact, adequate protein is important for liver health and to prevent muscle wasting in clients with cirrhosis, unless there are complications such as hepatic encephalopathy.

C. Restrict the client's sodium intake to 3 g per day is incorrect. Sodium intake is typically restricted more severely for clients with ascites. The general recommendation is often less than 2 g per day to help prevent fluid retention and reduce the burden on the heart and kidneys.

D. Position the client supine with legs elevated is incorrect. While elevating the legs can help reduce edema in the legs, positioning the client supine does not provide the same benefit for ascites. Side-lying with legs elevated or sitting with the legs elevated may be more beneficial.

A. "My partner and I will use petroleum jelly with latex condoms.": Petroleum jelly should not be used with latex condoms as it can weaken the latex material, increasing the risk of condom breakage. Water-based lubricants are recommended with latex condoms.

B. "My partner and I will both use a condom during intercourse.": This is not necessary or recommended. Only one condom is needed, and using two (male and female condom) may cause friction and increase the likelihood of breakage.

C. "I will be able to remove my contraceptive sponge immediately after intercourse.": The sponge should be left in place for at least 6 hours after intercourse to allow its spermicide to be effective. Removing it immediately could reduce the effectiveness of the contraceptive.

D. "My partner will use condoms with spermicides, which works better.": This statement demonstrates understanding. Using condoms with spermicides can be an effective form of contraception, as the spermicide helps to kill or immobilize sperm, providing an additional layer of protection.
