Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : B,C,E,F

A.   "I will look up at the ceiling when I swallow.". The recommended position for swallowing is typically sitting upright with the chin slightly tucked.
B.   "I will have to stop watching television while I eat." This indicates an understanding of the importance of focusing on eating and avoiding distractions.
C.   "My food will have to be the consistency of pudding." This indicates understanding of the Level 3 dysphagia diet, which requires foods to be moist and easily swallowed.
D.   "I can have cream soups on this diet." While cream soups might seem like a good option, they can be too thick for a Level 3 dysphagia diet. The consistency should be more like a thin purée.
E.   "I shouldn't drink liquids while I have food in my mouth." This demonstrates understanding of the importance of avoiding choking hazards.
F.   "I won't be able to eat nuts anymore." This indicates understanding of the restrictions on hard, crunchy foods on a Level 3 dysphagia diet.

Correct Answer is ["5.3"]

Explanation

1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms

28 pounds = 28 * 0.453592 = 12.7 kilograms

Dose = weight in kg * prescribed dose Dose = 12.7 kg * 10 mg/kg = 127 mg

The medication is availableas 120 mg/5 mL. To find the volume for 127 mg:

Volume = (desired dose / concentration) * volume Volume = (127 mg / 120 mg) * 5 mL

Volume ≈ 5.29 mL

Therefore, the nurse should administer approximately 5.3 mL of acetaminophen.

A. Impaired taste B. Pain behind the ear. C. Muscle distortion D. Facial twitching E. Hearing loss

Correct Answer is ["A","B","C"]

Explanation

A. Impaired taste is a common symptom of Bell's palsy due to the involvement of the facial nerve, which carries taste fibers.
B. Pain behind the ear is described as a sharp or aching pain. It is a precursor to facial weakness in many cases.
C. As the facial muscles become weak or paralyzed, it leads to a distorted appearance, such as drooping of the eyelid or mouth.

E. Hearing loss is not a typical symptom of Bell's palsy.
