B. Isolate the client in a private room.
C. Check a complete set of vital signs
D. Contact the primary health care provider.
The nurse should suspect the potential for Ebola virus disease (EVD) because of the client’s recent travel to Nigeria. The nurse needs to consider the symptoms that the client is reporting, and clients who meet the exposure criteria should be isolated in a private room before other treatment measures are taken. Exposure criteria include a fever reported at home or in the ED of 38.0° C (100.4° F) or headache, fatigue, weakness, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, or signs of bleeding.
This client is reporting a fever and is showing other signs of EVD, and therefore should be isolated. After isolating the client, it would be acceptable to then collect further data and notify the primary health care provider and other state and local authorities of the client’s signs and symptoms

B. A defect in cranial nerve VIII
C. A physical obstruction to the transmission of sound waves
D. A defect in the sensory fibers that lead to the cerebral cortex

A. Placing the client in the prone position
B. Starting an IV with an 18-gauge needle
C. Obtaining a lipid profile
D. Assessing that the client empties the bladder
The bladder should be empty for a paracentesis procedure to prevent incidental puncturing. Answer A is incorrect because the client sits upright for the procedure and prone places the client on the abdomen. Answers B and C are not necessary interventions for a paracentesis, so they are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Metabolic acidosis
B. Metabolic alkalosis
C. Respiratory acidosis
D. Respiratory alkalosis
The client with internal bleeding will most likely have metabolic acidosis. The laboratory findings reflect this suspicion. The pH is down, the PaCO2 is down, and the HCO3 is down. Answers B, C, and D are incorrect because they are not consistent with the lab values given in the question.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. Administering a local anesthetic
B. Checking for an allergic response
C. Administering an anxiolytic
D. Withholding fluids for 6–8 hours
The nurse should perform the skin or eye test before administering antivenin. Answers A and D are unnecessary and therefore incorrect. Answer C would help calm the client but is not a priority before giving the antivenin, making it incorrect.

B. IV controller

This equipment is necessary in case the pins become loose. The family should also be instructed in this before discharge for home care. The answers in A, B, and C are not necessary are appropriate due to a halo vest application.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. The nurse offers extra blankets.
B. The nurse places a tracheostomy tube at the bedside.
C. The nurse insists that the client refrain from talking.
D. The nurse administers pain medication every four hours.
The thyroid is located anterior to the trachea; therefore, laryngeal stridor and airway obstruction is a risk following a thyroidectomy. Answer A is incorrect because this action is not necessary. The need for extra blankets is associated with hypothyroidism, but is not directly associated with thyroid surgery. Answer C is incorrect because the client can talk. Answer D is incorrect because pain medication should be offered as needed, not every four hours.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Anorexia
B. Difficulty swallowing
C. Hirsutism
D. Hot flashes
Hirsutism is facial hair. This is associated with hypersecretion of cortisol. Answers A, B, and D are not associated with Cushing’s disease.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. Urinary output
B. Respirations
C. Temperature
D. Verbal responsiveness
Answer B is correct. Barbiturate overdose results in central nervous system depression, which leads to respiratory failure. Answers A and C are important to the client’s overall condition but are not specific to the question, so they are incorrect. The use of barbiturates results in slow, slurred speech, so answer D is expected, and therefore incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option A
Clients with GERD should eat four to six small meals per day to prevent reflux rather than three large meals. Answers B, C, and D are recommendations for health promotion tactics to control reflux. Other aspects include no snacking in the evening; no food two to three hours before bedtime; elevating the head of the bed at night; avoiding heavy lifting and straining; and limiting fatty, spicy foods, coffee, chocolate, alcohol, and colas.
