Correct Answer is ["1"]

Explanation

To calculate the correct dosage:

Convert the prescribed dose (100 mcg) to milligrams:
- 1 mg = 1000 mcg, so 100 mcg = 0.1 mg.
The available tablets are 0.1 mg each.
The prescribed dose is 0.1 mg, and the tablet strength is also 0.1 mg. Therefore, the nurse needs to administer 1 tablet.

A. "There is no way to predict how long it will last for each individual client, so you'll just have to wait and see." B. "No, it should only last until about your 12th week, but it will return near the end of the pregnancy." C. "Yes, it will, but if you decrease your fluid intake, especially at bedtime, it won't be so bothersome." D. "No, in most cases it only lasts until about the 12th week, but it will continue if you have poor bladder tone."

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. "There is no way to predict how long it will last for each individual client, so you'll just have to wait and see." – Incorrect; this does not provide helpful education.

C. "Yes, it will, but if you decrease your fluid intake, especially at bedtime, it won't be so bothersome." – Incorrect; reducing fluid intake may cause dehydration.
D. "No, in most cases it only lasts until about the 12th week, but it will continue if you have poor bladder tone." – Incorrect; bladder tone does not significantly affect this symptom.
