1300

1400

1600

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

A. 1500: This is incorrect
B. The calculation is as follows:
Remaining fluid: 600 mL
IV rate: 100 mL/hour
Time to empty the bag: 600 mL ÷ 100 mL/hour = 6 hours
Adding 6 hours to the report time:
0700 + 0600 = 1300
The correct answer is 1300.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Calling a rapid response may be necessary if the client's condition deteriorates, but it is not the immediate priority in this scenario where the client is still able to be aroused.
B. Administering naloxone is appropriate if there is suspicion of opioid overdose; however, the priority is to address the low oxygen saturation first with non-invasive measures.
C. Checking the temperature and applying warmed blankets may be important, but the immediate concern is the low oxygen saturation.
D. Encouraging the client to take deep breaths is the most appropriate immediate action to improve oxygen saturation levels and enhance ventilation, as the client is in a post-anesthesia state where respiratory depression can occur.

A. pick up the implant with gloved hands and place it in bedside container. B. pick up the implant with long handled forceps and place it in a lead container. C. call for the rapid response team. D. call the radiation oncologist immediately.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Picking up the implant with gloved hands does not ensure safety and proper handling of a radioactive material, as gloves do not provide adequate protection against radiation exposure.
B. Using long-handled forceps to pick up the implant and placing it in a lead container is the correct action, as it minimizes radiation exposure to the nurse and ensures the safe containment of the radioactive source.
C. Calling for the rapid response team is unnecessary in this scenario; the situation requires immediate containment of the radioactive material rather than emergency medical intervention.
D. Calling the radiation oncologist is not the first action; while it is important to inform the physician afterward, the priority is to secure the radioactive implant properly to prevent exposure.
