A. Taking supplements of B3
B. Increasing sodium intake
C. Eating a diet high in calcium
D. Drinking additional fluids
Taking supplements of B3 (niacin) helps to improve the symptoms associated with Ménière’s disease. Answer B is incorrect because the client needs to limit sodium intake. The client with Ménière’s does not need additional sources of calcium; therefore, answer C is incorrect. Ménière’s is not improved by increasing fluid intake; therefore, answer D is incorrect.

A. Call the doctor
B. Stop the IV infusion of Vancomycin

The Correct Answer is Option C
A. An involuntary rhythmic, rapid, twitching of the eyeballs
B. A dorsiflexion of the great toe with fanning of the other toes
C. A significant sway when the client stands erect with feet together, arms at the side, and the eyes closed
D. A lack of normal sense of position when the client is unable to return extended fingers to a point of reference
In Romberg’s test, the client is asked to stand with the feet together and the arms at the sides, and to close the eyes and hold the position; normally the client can maintain posture and balance. A positive Romberg’s sign is a vestibular neurological sign that is found when a client exhibits a loss of balance when closing the eyes. This may occur with cerebellar ataxia, loss of proprioception, and loss of vestibular function. A lack of a normal sense of position coupled with an inability to return extended fingers to a point of reference is a finding that indicates a problem with coordination. A positive gaze nystagmus evaluation results in an involuntary rhythmic, rapid twitching of the eyeballs. A positive Babinski’s test results in dorsiflexion of the great toe with fanning of the other toes; if this occurs in anyone older than 2 years it indicates the presence of central nervous system disease.

D. Aldolase 3.5 units/dL
Serum calcium levels rise with metastatic cancer of the bone. Normal calcium is 9.0 mg/dL–10.5 mg/dL. Answers A and D are incorrect because these are within normal limits and not related to bone metastasis. Normal phosphorus level is 3.0–4.5 mg/dL and normal aldolase level is 3.0–8.2 units/dL. Alkaline phosphatase is elevated in bone metastasis and Answer B is within the normal of 30–120 units/L, so it is incorrect.

D. The diabetic obstetric client with a blood glucose level of 90 mg/dL
The client who is 32 weeks gestation receiving Brethrine is unstable and requires further nursing assessment. Answer A is incorrect because the client who is 40 weeks gestation having contractions every 5 minutes lasting 50 seconds is normal. Answer C is incorrect because changing two peripads in the last 6 hours is normal; therefore, it is not highest priority.

Enterobiasis is most common in young children because of frequent hand-to-mouth contact. Answer A is incorrect because sharing hats and caps contributes to the spread of pediculosis capitis.

The Correct Answer is Option B, Option D
A. Wear airborne precaution PPE
B. Obtain nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs
C. The swab product is the same swab used for MRSA testing
D. Instruct patient to self isolate until swab results are back
