Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,E,F

A. Avoid naps – Napping during the day, especially late in the afternoon or evening, can interfere with the ability to fall asleep at night. It is generally recommended to avoid naps if experiencing insomnia.

B. Eat a heavy meal before bed – Eating a heavy meal before bed can cause discomfort and indigestion, making it harder to sleep. It is better to have a light snack if needed.

C. Watch television in bed to fall asleep – Engaging in stimulating activities like watching television in bed can make it harder to relax and fall asleep. It is recommended to reserve the bed for sleep and intimacy only to associate it with rest.

D. Exercise in the evening – Exercise increases alertness and can elevate body temperature, making it more difficult to fall asleep if done too close to bedtime. Exercise should be completed earlier in the day for better sleep quality.

E. Try to go to bed and awaken at the same time every day – Consistency in sleep-wake times helps regulate the body's internal clock, improving sleep quality and promoting better sleep hygiene.

F. Avoid alcohol in the evening – Alcohol can initially make someone feel sleepy but disrupts the later stages of sleep, leading to poor sleep quality. Avoiding alcohol, especially close to bedtime, is important for better rest.

G. Take an analgesic before bed – Unless there is a specific medical reason, taking an analgesic (such as pain medication) before bed is not recommended unless prescribed by a healthcare provider.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Call the nearest relative to come in and sign a new form is not the correct course of action. While family involvement may be important, the priority is to address the error in the consent form before proceeding with the surgery. The healthcare provider must be informed to ensure the correct procedure is performed.

B. Call the healthcare provider (HCP) to have the procedure rescheduled is the most appropriate action. The error in the consent form and the discrepancy between the consent and the surgical site marking must be addressed immediately to prevent a potentially catastrophic mistake. The healthcare provider will need to correct the error and ensure proper documentation before proceeding with surgery.

C. Have the client sign another form before surgery is not appropriate because the client has already been administered opioid medication, which may impair their ability to make informed decisions. The error in the consent form must be resolved with the healthcare provider before the client signs anything.

D. Cross out the error and initial the consent form is not an appropriate action. This could be seen as tampering with the document, and it does not resolve the issue of the incorrect surgical site. A new consent form must be signed after the error is corrected.

A. Don gloves. B. Apply a surgical mask. C. Put on an isolation gown. D. Wash hands.

Correct Answer is D,C,B,A

Explanation

Correct order: D C B A

Washing hands is the first step before any PPE is applied to ensure cleanliness and prevent the introduction of pathogens.
Putting on the isolation gown is the next step, as it protects the nurse's clothing from exposure to potentially infectious materials.
Applying a surgical mask is the next step to protect the nurse from airborne or droplet transmission.
Donning gloves is the final step, as gloves should be put on last to protect the hands while providing direct care, especially when dealing with wound care.
